I was there twice too. Saw Jim Clark in a Lotus win in 1965. I actually owned a Lotus Elan then, was rooting for Clark. Don’t remember who won the other time I was there.
NASCAR is the JV league of car racing. I mean, does FERRARI, MERCEDES, LEXUS, INFINITY, SUBARU or PORSCH even participate in NASCAR?
Larson just crashed, so no 1,100 mile day for him.
this is playing into the hands of Devon Defransico, Jack Harvey and hometown boy Ed Carpenter...
Why the hell is Larson down shifting at such a high speed?
It's nothing but Fords, Chevys, and Toyotas (Lexus parent company).

Setting up to be a hell of an ending...they will be running on fumes or running out of gas!!!
I’m sorry, but until they lend a modicum of concern for the planet I will neither watch nor attend. The cars henceforth must be solar powered.
Palou playing it smart
I was reading an article where some of the cars are hybreds now with a small battery installed. It was interesting with the various drivers talking about the pros and cons. Added weight and the balance of the car is different. But it really gives added power, but just for short intervals and then the battery is dead.
The drivers were saying how it adds to the mental calculus. Do you use it for a little boost throughout the last portion of the race to save on fuel, or save it for the very end and a big boost to pass or what?
Wow. I had no idea there was allowance for a variable of that nature.
BHR down and out 😳
