    I personally think its gonna be the ultimate equalizer. Yeah there is some boys who ran on dirt... but those cars are designed for dirt. The cup cars are big heavy behemoths compared to the average late model or sprint car.

    I wouldn't be suprised if a non top tier team pulls it off this weekend.

    I wonder if they'll be actual Cup chassis that pass all the usual pre and post-race inspections. Gonna be tough at the end of the event. I doubt many cars will still be in tolerance.

    The coolest news is the Cup boys will be running bias-ply tires for the first time since 1992.

    Good to see 5 with an actual sponsor this week.

    And they're running my personal favorite scheme on the 21 this week... Menards/Quaker State.

    Take another look at the rear quarter panel of the 5 then think back to where Kyle was last year and why. LOL...

    May be a sick day tomorrow for me! What a complete disappointment this lead up has been. I know we can’t control weather but it still sucks!
