2023 NASCAR THREAD!!!

He needs to hang it up. He just doesn’t want to do what he needs to do to be elite! He’s in his head and can’t get out

 

Just an off season for him. It happens. Doing quite well all things considered, in my opinion.

 

I was really expecting it to be the Harvick show.

 

I honestly didn't mind it for some reason. Most weeks I'd probably have said the same thing. But maybe watching my driver slowly progress through the field throughout the day helped.

 

Nice Race!

 

Correct. Back in the day when it was RIR and not RR it was called the action track. But that is when races were on Sat night and you could pass and get doored coming off of turn 2. This is my home track but its horrible now.

 

I actually do not disagree with this. Chase is in his head for sure. And I don't really think he has ever loved doing this. He has the skill, opportunity but is lacking the passion. Got some pussy now its all gone to shit!! LOL.... Good for him!

 

Rowdy Red for MIS. Another spectacular paint scheme with new sponsor

 

Sunday forecast showing showers in the morning with scattered storms in the afternoon. May as well make it rain 3 years in a row.

Didn't realize I was so close to where SRX is racing.

 

Good lineup tonight too. Hurry up and you can make the main

 

Yeah I had a few people try to get me to go too

 

Also love that Kyle Busch is running sponsorship from the Florida Panthers for some reason when his hometown Vegas Golden Knights just defeated them for the Stanley Cup.

 

True. Busch was a Michigan fan but took money from Appalachian State for Xfinity sponsorship a few years back.

 

SRX seems to have more cautions than Xfinity

 

51 cream of the crop again!

 

Is that 2 for 2? I don't remember if he's run SRX before

 

Yes, sir! Dominant in his first start in SRX last week too
