    So cool the network let Keselowski interview Blaney in VL after yesterday, also Erik Jones had a fantastic run. Kind of an alright race for the most part but great finish and great for the talented rookies! Poor decision on Kyle's interim crew chief to leave him out there, but everything is alright.

    Oh yeah, that guy is done. He's just ready to get out of the car. He is OVER this whole thing. I do hope he goes and runs late models from time to time. I'd make the drive for that.

    Oh man I have been reveling in this all afternoon. I was out late last night for the late model race at Anderson. I didn't even know the starting lineup until I tuned in on NASCAR Drive. It was cool to see Bubba Wallace having a go at it in the #43. He came home a respectable p26. Solid run for Jones in the 77. He's gaining momentum. Danica Patrick was in the top 10 several times, finishing in p16. How pissed is Kyle Busch right now? Interim crew chief hung him out to dry on that final yellow.

    I was home alone (just like I was when Bayne won the Daytona 500 in the #21). I was hootin' and hollerin' those last ten laps. Way cool to see the Woods running so well this year (in spite of two weeks of broken rear axles). They were down a lap today as well but stuck in there and pulled it off! I bet this'll be the most popular win of the year for NASCAR.

    I found this in the back of my truck after the race last night. Pretty crazy foreshadowing:

    Here's some pics from last night at Anderson Speedway. Both series put on great races. It was cool to see Josh Berry wheeling late models in the #88. #18 Ty Gibbs (Joe Gibbs' grandson), young as he is was really wheeling his car too. #26 Bubba Pollard took home the super late model win. Ernie Irvan's son Jared wheeled the familiar #28 but had a rough night.

    So just raced online in NASCAR 15, second race and I was at Talladega, and a guy tried to wreck me using keselowski's car on the final straight away... needless to say I took Michael Waltrip's car to victory Lane.... If y'all are on 360 let me know

    Oh man, I need to plug in my PS3 and run Nascar 15. Been a while. Last time I popped into an online race at Dega, I was just running behind the pack, trying to draft and set a new personal best time. On the final lap they all started wrecking. I moved up to second and tried to race clean, but the guy in front just lost it when I got too close. We were doing 215 in the turn. I felt so bad for him wrecking, I just cut off the console so I didn't have to hear the hate rant in the waiting room.

    Anything actually going to happen, or will the race be decided by a caution at the end?

    Wait until less than 20 laps, enter BS caution, someone who hasn't been in the top 5 will magically win afterwards.

    Really getting sick of that... And the predictability. If I want to know the end ahead of time I'll watch F1
