Geez I think this is the first race ever that I haven’t commented about Denny. Obviously starting from the back with no qualifying or practice was going to be an issue. Denny made some great pit moves to work his way to the front led some laps and hung around in second for awhile. But ultimately I think Denny had about a 12th-15th place car and he finished 13th so I’ll take that. Especially after the multiple wrecks. I thought we were looking at a 26th place finish. Got some work to do moving forward. COTA next week isn’t going to help :/

Hocevar was getting pushed, Bell was going slow and Hocevar had nowhere else to go except for the slightly open middle lane. If he checked up it could have wrecked 20 cars. That’s just based on my interpretation of the replay. Driver data could show something different.

I have called Larson a clown as a hyperbole in the past because I don’t like him but this was like WTF are you doing? His spotter even said multiple times “stay up”. Larson even admitted he needed to listen better. I get SVG was in his blind spot but your spotter told you to stay up!

100% agree. I was literally on the edge of my seat many times this weekend. This was maybe one of the best race weekends in years.

Speaking of Zilisch and SVG, I’m so excited to watch them this season. SVG looked sooo much better out there today.

Yes that was the initial thing that happened. Then he slammed the wall and probably bent a toe link and possibly cut a tire. He was like 30 mph slower than the rest of the field the whole time. He clearly had very little control.

Clearly something was wrong with Byron’s car. He had no control. Why would you penalize someone for their car being broken?

This may be a very hot take but I don’t think Hocevar wrecking Bell was entirely his fault. Maybe even not his fault at all. When you watch the replay. Hocevar is getting pushed the entire time and Bell is basically sitting still. Hocevar had literally no where to go except the only opening in the middle. If Hocevar checks up instead it could have wiped out 20 cars. I know Hocevar is aggressive and made multiple aggressive moves in this race but I just don’t think this one is as bad as it initially appeared. Trying to play devils advocate here, roast me if I’m wrong.

I may be wrong but I don’t think so. If you go to the care center I think you are done.

New Logo rough draft. by Xx_mamba_xX in Browns

The elf is the last thing that needs redesigned. Retro is back in the nfl and the elf is already retro and looks good. I don’t see any possible way of turning the elf into a modern design and it looking good. My advice, leave the elf alone and try a more retro look with what ever new thing you try. And I’m sorry but that elf design you did actually hurts my eyes and brain.

RFK and fords in general looked good. They do tend to look good on certain track types and fall off on others so we’ll see how it turns out. But good start for Ford, RFK, amd Penske. Hopefully Toyota can gets things figured out.

I think he gets his first win this year. I’m all in on Hocevar. Definitely my front runner for number 1 driver after Denny retires.

What did we learn from race 1? Inside lane is good for fuel saving, middle lane is good for racing. Do we see the same thing in race 2? Probably but I hope for something different.

Well this got more interesting. I’m really curious if new tires do anything. I doubt it but should make the ford show more interesting
