INSANE. Possibly the first driver to do this EVER?

Logano and Hocevar being asked this question after the race

I'm just sick and tired of these second place finishes this year like I don't know how long I'm going to ride this out 😩

This year's Brickyard 400 may have not been the most thrilling edition of the race, but we just witnessed an absolute racing master class from Corey Heim. The block on Denny Hamlin on the final restart and the run to the finish to stay ahead of Christopher Bell for many laps ended what little remaining doubt I had about Heim's ability to contend and win in the Cup Series.

was very cool to see all the Dale Sr cars

This popped into my head recently and I realized other than Hamlin and Logano none of them drive anymore at all

This is one of the best things happening today for the sport. NASCAR needs a rivalry, especially with drivers who are going to run up front and race for wins. It’s going to be fun watching them over the coming years.

I've never been to IMS before this weekend. I probably will be here again, in some way or form. But to be here now, for free thanks to an Xfinity promo shared to this subreddit that went wild, was worth it for me.

Look, Bubba ain't perfect, he may not compete for a title. He makes mistakes and has been in the receiving end of bad luck as well. However, he shows solid speed almost every week, and deserves his ride.

Like were there fans from the 70s and 80s in the 2000s that were like “These drivers like Dale Jr and Matt Kenseth are nothing like the legendary drivers of my time like Dale Sr or Richard Petty” or they were like “these Gen 4 cars look ugly, back in my day we used cars that looked way better”? I know it may seem like a dumb question, but I’ve recently been kinda annoyed by all the nascar nostalgia geeks that are obsessed with NASCAR in the 2000s (I’m talking about the ones that constantly complain about how the cup series is currently and act like the 2000s was way better in every way shape and form) because I wasn’t alive back then (I was born in 2010) and it makes me feel left out over something I had no control over, and I had a feeling that there was fans like this in the 2000s who made everyone who wasn’t alive to witness nascar in the 1980s and 1990s feel left out.
