Before Kansas... :rofl:
:D
Here is the link to vote for the ALL-STAR race.
My driver, Kyle Larson will be in the race, therefore, I voted for new blood Daniel Suarez. There are few new drivers to choose this year and clearly, the next generation is filling up the cup series.
Vote Here :hurray:

I'm for ABB - Anybody But Busch.
NASCAR threads at the other place have died.
I'm having fun...

Cup drivers shouldn't be allowed in the truck race.
Cup drivers shouldn't be allowed in the truck race.
There are more truck series' staff than attendance.

I don't agree.
How will the younginn's know the speeds and skill to aspire to?
Kyle is out front, however Ben Rhodes is racing him hard and clean. It's a beautiful thing to watch two trucks go head to head on the edge. And, ya, they are skating on the edge. Rhodes is ahead now.
There are more truck series' staff than attendance.
I love truck racing. These guys are balls to the walls.
I'd go if I lived closer.

And Ben Rhodes blows up with 5 to go to relieve the lead to Kyle.
He had over a one second lead.
Now he'll know to baby that motor when he's way out front. Bad break, but good experience.

And Kyle wins.
Love or hate him, he is a great wheel man.
He's a racer and should be allowed to race in any series that he wants.
Just because he dominates shouldn't preclude him from entering truck or Xfinity races.
He is just that good.

That was one helluva wreck...
Logano's rotor blew out, he turned into Danica, and Almirola piled into both. He's getting cut out of the car...

:faint: OUCH!!
:yesnod: When that car slammed back to the pavement after seeing the rear wheels and bell housing flop around, that had to really hurt.
No springs or shocks left to cushion the blow.
Ouch is right when his back compressed...
I'm just glad that they are all ok and hope that Almirola heals quickly and can get back into that car soon.
That was a wicked crash, for sure.
Both Danica and Logano were visibly shaken during the post crash interviews.
I'm surprised his leg was not broken. Clearly, you can see he was applying the brakes on impact.
Looks like a chiropractor will be able to fix him with an adjustment.

Yaa, no.
I'm not sure what the protocol is for a cracked vertebrae, but I'm pretty sure that a chiropractor is not gonna be the first choice.
MDs dont adjust, they give you painkillers.

Broken vertebrae... Did you miss that part ?
I swear by my chiro, but he wouldn't touch me if I had a broken vert.

No, I didn't miss it. A BV will keep him away for more than few races.
Looks very painful
