2017 season thread

There's just nobody in the main series that I really care about anymore. I used to watch it because I enjoyed watching Tony Stewart and Carl Edwards (and others like Mark Martin, etc...). Right now, with the convoluted points system and nobody that I really care enough about to cheer for, I don't watch.

Same.

Which leads me to think Kenseth is getting the #5 for 1 season and Byron will replace him in 2019. Hendrick will then have 3 out of 4 drivers 25 or under at the start of the 2019 season.

I can also see Kenseth as a possibility at SHR replacing Danica. He'd fit well with the veterans there that have won titles.

I would like to see this happen, but she is a cash cow for SHR

Looks like the xfinity is running a restrictor plate this weekend. Not sure what they are trying to achieve here.

Isn't she having problems getting sponsorship as well now? GoDaddy is gone and Nature's Bakery left her after one year in the contract.

I think she has about run her course.

No argument here from me. I think that happened even a few seasons ago. She has been given way more opportunities to succeed than most drivers would've had in that same time span.

Great race, Byron is amazing.

 

[bksballer89]

Why did they start this race?

Kyle Busch had Indy 500 deal 'done' but was denied by NASCAR team owner

K. Busch leading at the caution on Lap 72. Somebody threw out some in-car garbage all the drivers carry along just for those times they need a caution for whatever reason.

 

[Used 2 B Hu]

This brickyard is horrible.

 

[Retroram52]

Looks like a very sparse crowd at the track. I wonder why.

 

[Retroram52]

Geez, they go less than a lap on the re-start and their is another caution. What the hell is this?
