I know that I will not be getting my first Random Fantasy Game win this week. I got the #51.

I got Kryle... still hope he hits the wall. Got a good chance of that now

katherine legge will be in the busch race

Last week I had Kevin Harvick in an uncharacteristic off week. This week, I got (Googles car #23) Blake Jones? Who? Fucking BK Racing.

Ugh... My random fantasy finishes the last 3 weeks have been 6th, 2nd, 3rd and I'm up to 11th in points... Then I draw the 38...

First race weekend of the post-Brian France era of NASCAR.

Really wanted to run Michigan.

I'll be back at Talladega.

Bummer. Michigan in the Trucks looks like so much fun. Stay clean and get a good finish at Dega!

Glad to hear that your running Dega at least @

zippy

last night's Modified race at Thompson will be on NBCSN after all (despite it being barely promoted that it was taped like other races)

THIS WEEKEND

Truck race might be fun. But otherwise...yeah. I really don't care for the Xfinity cars at Mid-Ohio. They just sort of bumble around at low speed making me wish they were at like...one of a dozen other road courses instead.

I heard something about the possibility of rain at Mid-Ohio earlier in the week. I don't know of the forecast has changed since then.

It seems destined that NASCAR XFinity races on road courses must always also be rain races, because those oval guys scrabbling around out of their depth on a road course isn't enough, they have to add rain into the mix

BRING IT ON!

Weather looks pretty good at Mid-Ohio presently for the Trans-Am race. Of course that can change extremely fast by their time of start.

can't see much at Michigan tho, pretty foggy there presently.

Trans-Am race is starting right now btw (posted about it in TA thread)

Michigan has been a borefest since the day it was built. Hopefully it loses a date come the new deals. Literally mothing ever happens there except fuel mileage and engine failures.

There was some cool racing at Michigan in the late 90s to the mid 2000s before the repave. Now everyone just has to gravitate to the middle and it's basically the most boring version of a one-groove track.

This is the only moment of racing decade I clearly remember.

Well if we're talking crashes, how could you forget this one?

Sadler's crash here was narly
