Just caught up on the race. Martinsville is proof that god is real and that he loves us. Fan-loving-tasic race. Crap winner, but a very entertaining finish all the same. Shame about Chase, but I can't pretend that I care. If my choices for a winner were either Denny or Kyle, in that scenario I take Kyle because Denny dumped Chase like an rear end in a top hat.

Clint Bowyer's at Martinsville is encumbered: https://blackflag.jalopnik.com/in-nascar-itll-cost-25-000-if-the-fake-camera-setup-i-1820056357 13.2 pounds seems like a lot for a camera.

So I'm going to the Xfinity O'Reilly 300 this Saturday, which I'm told is still stock car racing but with...like a minor league, I guess???? I was wondering if anyone knew what kinds of events would be happening before the race at Texas Motor Speedway. My fiance wants to know whether we should get to the track 2 hours early or something, and for the life of me I've no idea.

I think I've seen you post in the NHL thread- Xfinity is like the AHL (mix of up and comers and veterans who either fell out of the bigs or are trying to get back in) with the unfortunate side effect that Sidney Crosby and Alex Ovechkin sometimes come down and inevitably score all the goals for no good reason and eventually cause the other minor leaguers to have to go play in Russia. That said, you're going to a PLAYOFF race, which means the veteran Cup drivers are banned, so you have a better chance of either seeing a legit up-and-coming "regular" driver win or the NASCAR equivalent of Connor McDavid or Zach Werenski (Kyle Larson/Ryan Blaney) who have made it to the top and are really good but still eligible for NXS races due to their relative inexperience and because NASCAR are morons.  PLAYOFFS .There are always merch vendors outside the track (both officially sanctioned and independent "gypsies") and also displays for various sponsors and manufacturers. If you've never been, go explore for a bit. Depending on what you're into, there will probably be autograph sessions for drivers from all three major series (Cup, NXS, Trucks). Take hearing protection, either in the form of earplugs or a scanner rental. Pull for #23 because he's an IRL goon who doesn't post here as much as he used to, but actively participated in these threads. e- TMS' website is marketing Chase Elliott as The People's Champion.

For what it's worth, Texas Motor Speedway has three major race weekends: Spring NASCAR, IndyCar and NASCAR trucks in the summer, and Fall NASCAR. Hopefully this weekend Goodyear will have their poo poo figured out in regards to the repave but I'm not holding my breath.

It's good to get there early cause usually companies are giving away free samples outside the track. and I don't know what the schedules like at texas but usually if i get to an xfinity race early i get to see some of the cup practice which is fun. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zy_vB1tzvwM Also this is the goon in question.

Matt Kenseth essentially just retired: https://twitter.com/NASCAR/status/926941243917168642https://twitter.com/NASCAR/status/926941243917168642 e- Since January 2015: Jeff Gordon, Tony Stewart, Carl Edwards, Greg Biffle, Dale Earnhardt, Jr., Matt Kenseth. Has there ever been this big an exodus of top tier drivers in less than three years? What's more interesting is the replacement list: Chase Elliott, Clint Bowyer (these first two because neither team got Kyle Larson), Daniel Suarez, a closed team (the 16), Alex Bowman, and Erik Jones.

Scanners not only give team communications, but you can also hear the audio feed of the radio and TV broadcasts, so if you've ever wanted to hear what happens during a commercial on a TV broadcast, you can. It doesn't sound that thrilling until you hear Darrell Waltrip complain about his piece of poo poo laptop. You can also listen to NASCAR's ops frequency, so it's like listening to the refs. Go to a Cup race and listen to David Hoots' constipated rear end yell "PUT IT OUT".
