Commercials every 4 min is fun.

Commercials every 4 min is fun.

That’s what I was saying a bit earlier.

Fox absolutely sucks when it comes to commercials.

F1 zero commercials during the race

What in the Ricky Bobby just happened?

BLM’er crashed & burned.

 

[Tanko]

Blaney has the awesome porn stache.

Back off Diggity. The France family needs to make their money.

This one is for @carolinakid smiling down on us

When Bubba crashed @carolinakid from the heavens be like …

Happy for Hocevar.

Knew the kid was going to win soon.

Hell of a victory lap.

Guys, don't let me forget to watch that FS1 truck race on 5/1. I just looked it up.

I'm gonna get sharp as f*** at truck series. Might take 4-6 years, but I am gonna try to f***

Hocevar reminds me a little of Jeff Gordon when he was young.
No one liked Jeff. Young, brash, arrogant and could win races.He chilled out over his career.
Hopefully, Hocevar learns to "make friends" or at least learn to respect his peers in this business.

Jay, what owner won

 

[Tanko]

Smartest guy was probably @white$phil$ivey .
I don't think he made a play on that disaster of a race.

 

[Tanko]

Basically was a little bit of an upset

Basically was a little bit of an upset

Superspeedways seem to bring out a lot of 1st time winners.
Its so random due to the crashes, drafting, and cars being so equal.

 

[BigJay]

Basically was a little bit of an upset

Definitely could be considered an upset since he’s a first-time winner but this kid Hocevar is an up-and-comer coach.

I mentioned earlier this season in the thread I thought he’d win soon. Wish I’d have had $$ on him but this style of racing on this track just can’t bet a lot of $$ or a lot of drivers. Just have to pick one or two and hope you get lucky and have a chance at the end.

This Hocevar kid reminds me of a young @jjgold .

Some don’t like him. Some love his style. He’s brash and doesn’t care if he pisses folks off.

That will be the last time we see that....

Nascar is guaranteed to outlaw that kind of stuff.
Hocevar might get fined.
