The rules are too complicated for me , that's why I earlier picked Logano and he won last week . I'll stick with him for the championship .

I see Juan Pablo Montoya is entered. Hope he can avoid running into the jet dryer. 23XI must have plenty of money to spend or they are really not coming back next year and need to dispose of some cars. Lajoie better stay far away as bad as his luck has been lately.

12 16 34 41 99 Is bonus point eligible no matter what Gar says! everybody else is running on old wore out tires ... but you made a quick green flag pit stop and got a new set so maybe you can move on up out of the back pack ... it's a risky move but you could potentially get six points ... it might work out for you so we'll see you at the finish line Let's Go Racing!

Well with50% of the picks in triple digits, we may have to start scoring by inverting the field. Dust has settled Candy has called Fly's name. I have siphored and siphored and every time I come up with 4 on top. Think we will wait on the film to get developed to be sure.

When you look at the top ten, you can see a definite changing of the guard.
# 17 Chris Buescher finished first, #16-Shane Van Gisbergen finished 2nd followed by #77-Carson Hocevar (career-best finish), pole winner #1-Ross Chastain, #71-Zane Smith, #14-Chase Briscoe, #34-Michael McDowell, #7-Corey LaJoie, #41-Ryan Preece, and #2-Austin Cindric.
No Buschs, no Logano, no Truex, no Hamlin, no Keselowski, no Dillon, etc.
I've watched 3 changeovers in my viewing. One was the Petty era, one was the Earnhardt era, one was the Harvick era. All vastly different generations, vastly different cars and very different racing.
I've enjoyed them all and still do.

If a car can stay out of the crazy pileups, the drivers today are all capable of winning a race. When we think of a driver winning 6 or so races in a season that’s amazing. You have to have a fast, good setup and be able to change with the track conditions. I remember Larson saying he didn’t know how he won a couple of times when he was running middle of the pack and cycled to the front during the last laps. Hamlin is having a run of bad luck, but is still very capable.

Hamlin is a very capable driver but he seems to get distracted when it gets to the second or third round of every championship run.
Most of the distractions are self induced. This year he's all wound bitching about NASCAR at every turn on his podcast. Then he gets all caught in the NASCAR / car owners deal plus he's dealing with 23Xi and the drama of being partners with MJ.
He's making a lot of enemies on the track and in the NASCAR hierarchy.
I used to laugh out loud watching Harvick mentally manipulate the hell out of him. You could just see the mental hiccups Hamlin's brain went through as they got deeper into championship rounds.
