No thread for the race. Or I didn't see one. Whichever.

 

Unfortunately or fortunately, I have zero inspiration. NHRA is cool, Logano a tool.

 

I am drinking wine.

Atlas/Autosport is like a upside down inside out backwards parallel universe.

 

Oh and OvDrone.. Your hate train departure will be delayed due to the wrong kind of leaves on the line or summit like that.

Why don't you like Logano? I don't like him either but I don't know why. Or why you don't.

 

 

I also don't like that Atlanta is so predictable Kevin Harvick is even money for a top 3 finish. But I do like that there is always a prop to be found on who finishes better, Stenhouse or Danica.

Like it or not, Logano is a force to be reckoned with.

This night's sleep is cursed, because of that picture.

How can you not hate on this (?) :

Oh and for the record i don't like Logano either, but he's safe from my ire as long as Larson has a driving job that isn't delivering UPS parcels.

Don't you hate it when the pit stop coverage ends up just bring a narration of what you are seeing. You can tell when they don't know what the car was like because they say something generic or factual until they see if the pit crew make an adjustment, and then tell you that an adjustment was needed (I saw!), or if no adjustment at that point they say the car is neutral as if this is something they already knew.

I understand some drivers/crew chiefs will have more detailed conversations than others before each pit stop, it's just too obvious sometimes that they don't know anything and are filling in the required number of seconds with blather.

But it's one of Nascar's weird cute strong-points.

Amazing, 41 cars still on track and only 2 of them are more than 5 laps down. Dillon is so far back that he will still be racing in Atlanta when the Vegas race goes green.

Moffitt gets to start on the inside, too.

 

Biggish one happens.  Danica narrowly evades.
