2021 NASCAR thread

My opinion, the best last 10 laps in history.

 

Up until fall Talladega this year I would be in full agreement...
Now its 2nd best to me.

 

I have to add an honorable mention for... well... obvious reasons.

2017.

 

Funny how both brothers ended up being sponsored by the same Company at one point in their careers. This is Jeff in 2013 ( we'll see his bro in 9 days)

 

This is extra sensitive to me... he died driving for my hometown team... Phoenix Racing. I know the Finches real well... that almost made him pull out of NASCAR all together... but he had obligations and pressed on.

 

I read somewhere, that Phoenix racing was coming back this year.

 

I doubt it. James is too busy with construction projects here and running a Sprint car team for his son. His brother Wayne is one of my closest friends and I hadn't heard anything from him about it.

 

They are going back racing, but with Pro and Super late models. I knew I seen something about it, just didn't read the details before.

Yeah... for his kid.

 

I was at work so I forgot to add this: his kids gonna be somebody. I've seen him race and can vouche for his talent. Be on the lookout for JJ Finch in the not so distant future.

 

One of those that was great in the lower series but could never make it at the top.

 

I appreciate u guys making this thread. Bringing back alot of good memories.

 

After Dale, Childress switched to 29 and changed the paint scheme. This one was always my favorite and I thought it looked the best... with inverted white/black.

They only used it for 1 race then went to white/red.

 

That was the first driver I ever pulled for. Hardee's always gave away cale swag when I was a kid.
