I think he will be out longer than Kyle was so harder to get into the top 30 drivers to make it in even if he wins a race? Plus Tony is no Kyle Busch in driving talent anymore. Just my 2 cents. Would like to see him do it because it would be fun to watch but thinking its a huge longshot.

Danica is looking good. Maybe she is catching on?

She seems to practice and qualify not to bad but racing......meh. Lol.
OK, you brought it up. Do you guys think the guys on track don't cut her any slack? I know its racing and the name of the game is winning but you hear drivers talk about respect among each other all the time. As far as giving a guy some room if he's got a run or are fighting for position. Do you guys think the drivers on track give her the same "respect" they are giving other drivers?

She seem to be in a lot of mishaps with other drivers. Tough call Zeebers? I think the top tier drivers respect her but maybe not so much for the back runners? She is a blocker kinda like a Newman is. You hear lots of guys say Newman is hard to pass and won't move even if you are faster. A lot of those back runners are racing for the seat in the car not for trophy's like the front runners are.

Maybe if she took her shirt off when she won , they would cut her more slack ? :) j/k

Final practice is just over at Bristol. Here were the top 10 fastest cars: 11-24-78-19-18-48-4-42-5-20. Not a bad recovery for Hamlin after getting into Danica in the 2nd practice and having damage.

I think Truex has a chance today. He was sure looking good on the track in every session that I saw.

Yeah they were good last year with Chevy but almost look like they have picked up a step this year with the switch to Toyota and Joe Gibbs.

Bristol is in the books with lots of late race cautions. Here is the final running order with congrats to Carl Edwards! 19-88-41-24-6-83-4-15-31-22. Good job to Trevor Bayne, Matt DiBenedetto and Clint Bowyer for great finishes as well.
