Larson to double up at Pocono:

This weekend will be the first time #42-Kyle Larson has raced at Pocono Raceway. Pocono, known as “The Tricky Triangle” is one of the few tracks on the NASCAR circuit at which Larson has not raced in any of the sports touring series, but he has logged laps at the track this season during testing. Larson, who is no stranger to running multiple races in one weekend, will be doing double-duty this weekend when he races in the Pocono 200 in the ARCA Racing Series, Larson will drive the #4 Cartwheel by Target Chevrolet Impala. The 80 lap, 200 mile race will give Larson a chance to gain racing experience at “The Tricky Triangle” prior to Sunday’s NSCS Pocono 400. This will be his third time racing in an ARCA car. Larson raced at Michigan in 2012 and at Daytona in 2013, where he finished second. He will be the only NSCS driver entered into the race.(CGR)(6-4-2014)

TNT Revs Up for NASCAR Coverage:

TNT’s presentation of the 2014 NASCAR Sprint Cup Series will feature all-access coverage throughout the six-week NASCAR Summer Series. TNT’s coverage will start Sunday, June 8, at Pocono, continuing throughout the summer with behind-the-scenes content featuring a select driver and their team, along with special “off the track” segments and more.

The Toyota Camry Test Car, a new addition for this year’s race coverage, will take viewers inside the car and bring them closer to the action. TNT analysts Kyle Petty and Wally Dallenbach will use the car for pre-race driving segments on the track, taking viewers into the turns and down the straightaways before the green flag drops each week. Additionally, the car will be a resource for analyst Larry McReynolds during the race as the former crew chief will outline key performance features and mechanical challenges during the race.

TNT will once again follow a driver and their team over the course of the entire week as they travel and prepare for the upcoming race, with coverage beginning when the driver leaves the previous track and continuing throughout the network’s next NASCAR Summer Series telecast. Featured drivers will include #42-Kyle Larson (Pocono), #3-Austin Dillon (Michigan) and #47-AJ Allmendinger (Daytona), among others. The all-access pieces will air during the pre-race Countdown to Green served by Sonic show.

The network will return its marquee commentator crew with analysts Petty, Dallenbach and McReynolds joining play-by-play announcer Adam Alexander for each race. Alexander will also host the network’s 60-minute Countdown to Green served by Sonic pre-race show with Petty, Dallenbach and McReynolds. In addition, veteran reporters Ralph Sheheen, Marty Snider, Matt Yocum and Chris Neville will patrol pit road to bring viewers comprehensive coverage and access prior to and during each race.(Turner Sports)(5-29-2014)

Goodyear Tires Notes / Fast Facts

Tire: Goodyear Eagle Speedway Radials:

Set limits: 5 sets for practice/qualifying and 9 sets for the race

Tire Codes: Left-side — D-4548; Right-side — D-4520

Tire Circumference: Left-side — 87.40 in. (2,220 mm); Right-side — 88.31 in. (2,243 mm)

Technical Inspection Inflation:
Left Front — 26 psi; Left Rear — 26 psi;
Right Front — 36 psi; Right Rear — 36 psi

Minimum Recommended Inflation:
Left Front — 18 psi; Left Rear — 18 psi
; Right Front — 37 psi; Right Rear — 34 psi

Notes: This is the same combination of left- and right-side tires that NASCAR Sprint Cup teams have run at Pocono since June 2012 . . . the only change for this year is that the recommended air pressure for the left-side tires has been raised by a pound . . . for 2014, Pocono is the only track on which either of these tire codes are scheduled to be run . . . as on all NASCAR ovals greater than one mile in length, teams are required to run inner liners on all four tire positions at Pocono . . . air pressure in those inner liners should be 12-25 psi greater than that of the outer tire.

I was going to note that the previous post list TNT’s Pre-race show: Wally Dallenbach Jr., Larry McReynolds, Kyle Petty, but not Adam Alexander. The press release says that Adam Alexander will host the pre-race show with the three former drivers/crew chief. I was surprised they would have a pre-race show with out a professional broadcaster.

Now, who is Adam Alexander?

I think I’m giving up on Roush Fenway after this year. Especially if Edwards leaves.
