Go Jr, go! Running him today!

I don’t have TV... it sounds like Menard’s car lit up and went boom?

Caution 8.

Do you ever see them changing the oil during pit stops they way they change tires and gasoline?

FYI... that's the main reason that Texaco dropped out of NASCAR a few years ago. The fuel was Sunoco, and the oil (in their case, Havoline, never gets mentioned.

Aee they going to red-flag while they clean this up, or let the racers circle and circle and circle like yesterday?

Okay, I’ve never seen them change the oil, but how did Goodyear and Sunoco snag those exclusive deals? And Sunoco? I can count on one hand the number of Sunoco stations I see, meanwhile Goodyear is a very popular tire.

Last 30 laps will be the wildest. JJ needs to stay good and lucky. If he don’t choke, it’s his.

Finish of a historic year. Many memories. Congratulations to JJ.

Put up an off season thread some time in the next week.

Oh, and we will have to finish out the fantasy season.

Phillips '76 (formerly Union '76) had the concession first, but Sunoco got it after Phillips got out of the motorsports fuel business.

Goodyear gets prime sponsorships because of their blimps, which are sought after for overhead TV coverage. Plus, they make tires...

Seriously, what people don't "get" about NASCAR is the testing. Today's pre-game show focused a few times on the testing aspect of racing. Goodyear tests the durability of their tires. Oil companies test the formulations of their gasolines for residue build-up, etc.

Sponsorship also comes from the behind-the-scenes sponsoring of performance testing by the manufacturers, whether they be oil, gasoline, tires, or the cars themselves.
