Yeah, I wish it had gone green the whole way without the late caution (and the only tyre changes allowed in ARCA are from Wet to dry or dry to wet? So no tyre changes at all 99% of the time?)

But a lot of fun, and the 3 or 4 or so competent drivers really made a race of it at the end

Great battle.

Kligerman showing he’s plenty valuable in the seat.

Not a bad race BTW not sure where everyone is BTW

A few wrecks, some good passin' and a close last lap, sadly not a pass for the lead on the final lap but it was pretty tense

No derpyness anyway, about as good as you can expect from these things on the road course

Next: Atlanta for some non-pack racin' BTW

I am SHOCKED that we actually had a clean close finish on a road course in the Trucks. Awesome to see, but also kind of sad how common bulldozing people out of your way has become that I am so shocked when it doesn't happen.

They really need to just suck it up and let the Xfinity/Cup cars run their full power levels at Atlanta. Now that it’s hot out and the track isn’t brand-spanking new, they can’t even produce the pack-racing that SMI wanted. No speed AND low grip.

Did they even try and make the Xfinity cars pack race like the cup cars, I thought they'd just changed things for cup and if they worked would add them to Xfinity next season?

I see now you said that because they were attempting to pack race

Been a couple stupid wrecks so far, nothing major

Welp, if they'd started racing at any time bar the last half a mile, that would've been quite a good finish

They didn't, single file shit, Bad racin'

Not just repaved, they completely reconfigured the track during the offseason. It's now banked 28 degrees and much narrower in the corners as a result. That's why they're running a superspeedway restrictor plate type setup on it this year.

Truex actually doesn't look that bad. Dillon is toast though.
