Turned on race with 20 to go, saw 2 trucks battling, thought race might be good, looked up at graphics and the battle was for 11th.

Obviously they were desperate to find some close racing.

So glad we're not at Rockingham. Hell even Phoenix would be better than this shit...

Now I get why Motors TV wanted to save their money...

Tapered spacers have done more to ruin the on-track product for Xfinity/Trucks than SMI, ISC, Danica Patrick, Dale Earnhardt's death, the 2008 Brickyard 400, Jack Roush, Kyle Busch, busch-wacking and 12:1 compression engines combined.

Maybe NASCAR should learn from Robby Gordon and put some jumps on the track

Apparently a handful of cars, including Harvick, Biffle, and Allmendinger were still getting through tech while opening ceremonies where beginning. All cars are through now and Harvick's car is being rolled to the grid.

Well at least I can get some stuff done in my apartment

Take out the trash, do the dishes, clean the fridge, run the vaccuum, do laundry...

Even if this race turns out boring as all hell (which it probably will), atleast it'll look cool in the process. This is why they shouldn't resurface tracks (unless it's breaking up daytona style)

This is so stupid. Was there a reason for them moving this race?

DW swears by the Vortex Theory, but I'd be willing to bet my house he thinks human-caused climate change is a hoax.
