Long overdue win for Larson. Elliot will get one before the year is over.

Glad to see a different face in VL. If Larson don't wreck himself out of the chase it could get interesting. He's had speed just about everywhere

Is Larson the first Sprint/Nextel/Winston cup winner to come from the drive for diversity program?

Really happy for that guy.

Awesome burnout

Junior done for the season. Smart move by him. No reason to come back this season.

 

[doozer]

No reason for him to comeback...at all.

What time and channel is the race in tomm?

No reason for him to comeback...at all.

I'd kinda be surprised if he does.

I'd kinda be surprised if he does.

He's got a lot to think about.............For sure.

What time and channel is the race in tomm?

NBC (6:00PM ET I think?)

OK dumb question but does Bayne get the same amount of resources as Martin did in the 6? If he does then how much longer will Roush give him if he hovers where he is?

I'd say so. But Roushe is not a strong team and really hasn't been in awhile.

love the throwback paint schemes...but those wide collars though

Ken Squier and Ned Jarrett are way better than the commentators today.

Loved it when Ned got to call his Dale's Daytona 500 win

My favorites were the Bill Elliott throwback on the #1 and the Tide scheme.

You know your getting old when you remember watching the throwback paint schemes every week!

Per @kicknthetires, Truex and Johnson have failed post-race inspection. Awaiting official word.

Okay.... they both failed, but not enough to assume they gained an advantage.


Carry on.


Bob Pockrass ‏@bobpockrass 48s49 seconds ago Likely a 10-point penalty to Johnson and a 15-pt penalty -- 10 points plus 5 pts as a repeat violator -- for Truex. #nascar

A useless penalty for Truex.
