Notice all the new names? Wow.

Did not watch any pre-race stuff, did they talk about any of these new names?

Just a couple. I wasn't paying much attention.
This could be the only pit stop?

Allen, White, Clanton...some that I saw. ??

Who ever that was on pit road, that truck has some dents!

Maybe on the only pit stop. Something says this is going to be a wreck-fest. Too many new ones getting an education at Bristol tonight!

The old man is first out of the pit's - Mark Martin!

Brendan Gaughan - home town boy. Promotional deal, he drove his race truck up I-15 to the speedway. Very cool.

It's Bristol Baybeee!

Trucks running as I post. All the talk has been about the new track. Brand new concrete; I believe the steepened some of the banking, altered the turns and widened to from 40 to 43 feet.

Temp here at 7 this evening was 96 and it's not supposed to cool off. We have been cooling into the upper 70 by 9 or 10 and into the upper sixties by sunup.

The good news is the concrete assumes the same temp as the air, unlike asphalt, so conditions ought to be good for the drivers.

Thanks for hosting grok! Can't wait.

You would think they could find $80,000 in the petty cash at Sears for this once in a life time event...
