Gollie. Erik Jones finishes 8th in Stage 1 and is 4th in Stage 2. And the speeds are up to and including 194mph. Much better.

Erik Jones is running in the top five and right now he is 2nd. Dude could win this race!

 

[Retroram52]

Well, Jones was leading the last lap and got ran over by Chastain and company. Finished 6th. Tough break.

Yea, Busch has warn-out his welcome at JGR and the rumors are swirling.

Wonder if Denny will transfer to his and MJ’s team and add a second car when his contract is up as well.

 

[Retroram52]

Don't know UVA. But he sort of disappeared in Stage 3 to finish a pedestrian 18th or so.

If he is smart he stays with JGR until he retires.

Red Flag, Rain-delay in Dover-land.

What a joke of an endurance race in Charlotte last night. The supposed NextGen safe car was proven to be aerodynamically unstable as cars were spinning out as tires went away and then they were rolling in wrecks like Chris Beuscher's wreck where he rolled 4.5 times before coming to rest.

The people who slowed down and took care of their limited sets of tires made it to the end and even then the end was postponed twice and the race went an additional 13 laps to finally decide a winner. What a joke NASCAR is!!

It’s fallen quite a bit the past few years or so. Sadly, I feel like it’s going to get worse before it gets better.

Another race where my boy Erik jones was leading the race but got a Top Five finish in Atlanta with a 4th place finish. Damn, Petty/GMS Racing is continuing to make progress. I hope they sign Jones to a re-up for the next several years. Damn good Driver.

Ty Dillon is throwing a hissy fit and is leaving Petty/GMS Racing at the end of the 2022 season. Apparently his fragile little ego is not getting stroked enough. Bye bye!!

thought he was getting the axe at end of season anyways?

 

[Retroram52]

That is correct Schmoopy!! It was a mutual parting of ways. More like: "Get your panzy-ass outta my shop!!", "Ya little Bitch!"

did anyone say hold my watch?

 

[Retroram52]

Don't know.

 

[Retroram52]

Erik Jones did a masterful drive at Pocono coming from 34th for a rules violation and without his Crew Chief to finish 11th. Fantastic!!

 

[Retroram52]

After Hamlin and Kyle Busch got disqualified, Erik Jones moves up to a 9th place finish which is even better. Petty/GMS Racing would be stupid not to re-sign Jones for say 4 years.

 

[Retroram52]

Good news!! Jones signs a multi-year deal with Petty/GMS!! This kid is going to win some races and may even win a championship!

 

[Retroram52]

Erik Jones takes over the lead in the Second Stage in Michigan!!
