Thank heavens the Xfinity Series is coming back to a short-track. We'll be getting some nice, clean racing for a change! :)

I'll miss this race 'cause there's a cool party Saturday night, but if the city is as empty as these last couple of August weekend then maybe I'll catch the race.

 

Stocked for Darlington though. Can't wait to see a race at that track.

Are you going to be there? It might be the best race in years since they'll be using the low df package.

Excuse my ignorance, but what Darlington are you talking about? Isn't Darlington only in spring these days?

So Kenseth winning the spring southern 500 was in 2014

OMG I cannot keep track of time anymore. I was certain it was 2015

Ah... 2014, could have been a vintage year if a certain fat (ok... bigger!) guy had won...

 

But given the recent events I will root for Clint, even if he races for the wrong boss.

Kenseth won the Stand up to cancer 500 at the FIRST Bristol race in April, is that what you are thinking about?

He won no races in 2014, Kevin Harvick is reigning Southern 500 winner

I remember Kenseth winning Southern 500 for Joe Gibbs. It was a long and exhausting race running deep into the night. Kenseth was completely exhausted afterwards. But he was happy.

 

could it be 2013 then????

Jeff Gordon is running the throwback Rainbow Warriors paint scheme this week. Looking at the qualifying chart, he probably wishes it came with throwback results

It might finally be time for me to check myself into my friendly neighborhood asylum: I've actually tuned into this, and not by accident. :stoned:

I thought Logano and Harvick's different strategies made for a fascinating finish, best drive I've seen by Logano.
