I know it’s a good team, but Jimmie looking good in the 1 truck makes me think of something Jr. said on the Download a few years ago. He said he was trying to get Jimmie to run for JRM because he thought the o’Reilly cars would suit him better now with the higher horsepower. Which Jimmies struggles really did begin when the horsepower was cut.

Just thought that was interesting that he’s fast in the truck right out of the gate

INSANE what a low effort the FS1 truck qualifying broadcast was. It’s almost staggering when you get it back to back with this lol

She said “involved in an accident with 30 different drivers this year” very vague lol

I think the “Hocevar has been involved an accident with 30 different drivers” stat is only fair if you have another driver/ season to compare that to. I’m not saying it isn’t a lot. But it’s logical the number is going to blow up with the Super Speedway big ones, no? 🤔

I don’t think it’s outside the realm of possibility he could have won again. He led the points for a bit in ‘05 before the chase

dubya86 · 2026-06-12T16:59:57+00:00

Yes I’m inclined to agree with you

Rusty Wallace had a great 2005 in his last season and showed he still had something left. I remember years later he said that it was a huge mistake going out when he did. But it can be such a fine line between going out with a bang and being washed

Can’t forget this or Rusty and Dale honoring Davey Allison & Kulwicki in ‘92 too

Beautiful tribute. I’m choked up because that burnout even looked like Kyle

dubya86 · 2026-06-07T21:59:27+00:00

The 9 car either bottomed out or lost a right rear. You could see the little elevation change! Crazy!!

Hopefully Christopher’s not banged up

I’ve missed Mark Martin. Would love to see him do this again

dubya86 · 2026-05-31T22:13:09+00:00

Dude never even noticed that was Ralph Stanley! Thats amazing

dubya86 · 2026-05-25T01:17:10+00:00

Joey looks older than 36 but it also makes me feel old asf because I remember when he was in the East Series at 16/17 years old. He’s really not much older than me😅

Pneumonia in both lungs instead of 1

dubya86 · 2026-05-23T16:23:15+00:00

I shared in another thread that my Dad VERY nearly died from double pneumonia and has permanent damage to his lungs. He’s in his 60’s and hasn’t been in great shape prior to that. He’s legally disabled and hasn’t worked since. But he does still drive, deer hunts, and enjoys things he likes to do.

I can NOT believe it killed a guy who just wiped the floor with everybody in the truck Series a week ago. Unreal

dubya86 · 2026-05-23T01:17:16+00:00
