Bad Brad has clinched to the next round with his win. Heres the Chase standings going to Loudon next week: 2-24-22-4-88-11-18-48-41-20-5-99-31-47-16-43. The 31-47-16-43 are on the outside looking in at this point and will have to pick it up in week 2.

Logano blew up coming to the finish line with a windshield tear off clinging to his grill and Almirola blew late in the race running 6th and had a strong car today. The Roushketeers looked like boys racing men today. Sorry Troy....it pains me to say that. Lol.

Thanks boys! Out in the field combining. Was a heckuva finish with Keselowski, Gordon, Larsen and Harvick with some unreal driving at the end. Its exciting to see the future of the sport with kids like Larsen and Chase Elliot coming up through the ranks. Here were the top 10 finishers in Chase race #1: 2-24-42-22-4-11-18-41-1-20.

Im not sure that Brad having a 3 second lead at the end was a heck of a finish. Gordon and Larson had some good door to door racing near the end, but other than that, a snooze fest. Nice pass by Brad threading the needle with about 10 to go, but a long race with little action. Ricky and Danica did a bit of bumping and grinding, but not the type we all want to see.

I thought the racing at the end was great. Ya Brad won easily but only because of Larsen and Gordon side drafting and pulling crossovers on each other. The rest of the race was so so I agree.

New news on Tony Stewart/ Kevin Ward tragedy. The police have recommended that case be transferred to District Attorney and to be heard by a grand jury to decide if Stewart is to be charged or not. Not sure if that is good or bad for Stewart? Always thought you had to be charged to get to a grand jury?

Dewalt going back to Kenseth for 2015, his old sponsor is back with him.

The starting grid is set now. Here were the top 10: 2-1-4-11-18-48-22-99-31-42. Looks like bad Brad is laying it down again on the boys.

That is good

 

[snopro]

That is good

Yes it is. There have been whispers from people at Hendricks that they think the 2 is cheating......................better than them maybe?

it's only cheating if you get caught. to be able to sneak something through tech in todays world would be ingenious. I like to see the dominate "H" get beat up on by Penske. I don't like the little rat in the 2 but it's still someone other than Hendrick so it's all good. I just want to see that little jockey in the 42 get one before years end.

 

[snopro]

Yes Trev. Would like to see some new guys get a Championship for a change. This year could be it. A lot can happen in a one race shootout.

the champ format reminds me of a nhra ladder working down to the wire. gotta give nascar credit for mixin' it up and not always having the same stuff over & over. they know how to market.

Lol it's racing, everyone is cheating and always has to some degree. This fawkin 2 car is going to give me an ulcer though.

 

[arff]

2 car for the win tomorrow.

 

[snopro]

2 car for the win tomorrow.

You may be right Ray. 2 car fastest in 1st and 2nd practice,qualifying and 2nd in final practice. He is the car to beat tomorrow.

I haven't seen the race yet because of combining but here was the top 10 finishers at Louden: 22-42-4-1-48-43-2-18-88-55. Was it a good race? Logano is the second car to qualify for the next round. Penske looks strong right now.
