rvrdgsfn Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 Results from Las Vegas 1. Keselowski 2. Logano 3. Johnson 4. Kyle Busch 5. Dillon 6. Blaney 7. Harvick 8. Earnhardt Jr. 9. Kurt Busch 10. Kahne A lot of speeding penalties but both Kes & Dillon rebounded very well from them. This was another good race despite the wind in my opinion. The final laps were good as was the fight for 3rd. A rough day for Kenseth & Elliott while Ryan Blaney had a great race. Next up Phoenix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
See Red Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 I'm glad Chase Elliott has been running well even though the finishes aren't there yet. I was hoping for a late caution to give Blaney an outside shot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rvrdgsfn Posted March 13, 2016 Share Posted March 13, 2016 Results from Phoenix: 1. Harvick 2. Edwards 3. Hamlin 4. Kyle Busch 5. Earnhardt Jr. 6. Kurt Busch 7. Kenseth 8. Elliott 9. A. Dillon 10. Blaney Man, that finish was crazy but in a good way. Harvick just dominated Phoenix again, also a great race for Carl & Little E. Kenseth finally got a top 10 this season & both Elliott & Blaney had a good race as well. Even Little E & Austin had a good race as well. This package has produced some awesome racing. Next up, California. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rvrdgsfn Posted March 19, 2016 Share Posted March 19, 2016 Bumping because Brian France mentioned something during an interview with Dave Moody http://www.nascar.com/en_us/news-media/articles/2016/3/18/brian-france-sirius-xm-nascar-radio.html With the newness of the current NASCAR racing season yet to wear off, Brian France -- the sanctioning body's chairman and CEO -- discussed the possibilities of more new touches coming to stock-car racing's future. The possibility of new manufacturers, new tracks and a new premier-series entitlement sponsor were just some of the topics France discussed in an impromptu phone interview Friday afternoon with SiriusXM NASCAR Radio. SiriusXM host Dave Moody said callers often asked whether they could anticipate the return of Dodge or another manufacturer to join the three existing automakers -- Chevrolet, Ford and Toyota -- that currently compete in the sport. "There is some interest by a couple of different manufacturers, and we would be open to that in the right conditions," France said. "A lot of the car companies are understandably looking at the terrific job that Toyota has done by partnering with NASCAR and the success and all the things that come along with that. They've been an incredible success story for a car manufacturer looking to come into a sport that's very difficult to come in, compete and win every weekend. "But there's interest and this is obviously the biggest opportunity in auto racing in North America and we would probably say the world, so it's always on some attention span one way or the other." Well as always I'm hopeful but this day in age, I'll believe when I see/hear it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dfwabel Posted March 19, 2016 Share Posted March 19, 2016 Let's recall that Brian France, the CEO of privately held NASCAR, endorsed Trump. Marcus Lemonis is the owner of Camping World who isn't happy regarding the France opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dalcowboyfan92 Posted March 19, 2016 Share Posted March 19, 2016 Can Brian France just leave this crap alone and stop constantly feeling the need to fiddle with it? NASCAR is just Executive Meddling: The Sport. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nissan is a favorite of the rumor mill. I would say out all the rumors, I think Nissan would be it, IMO they got the 3 vehicles to do so. Titan in camping world, 370 Z in Xfinity, Altima in Sprint Cup. I would still hold out for Honda but who knows. Dodge won't be back while Sergio is in charge, Hyundai doesn't have a truck or sportscar yet (since Genesis is becoming its own brand now, one could hope for a tiburon revival or something else). Volkswagen I would say the same & since Dieselgate has happened. I'd have to say Honda or Nissan. On a side note, now that Toyota has finally killed off Scion & brought the 86 back, can we please get this in Xfinity??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Needschat Posted March 20, 2016 Share Posted March 20, 2016 Nissan and Honda would probably be in NASCAR now if the France family had voted Lisa France Kennedy as CEO and not Brian. Oh what could have been.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McMurray The curse struck again, Harvick led the most laps but didn't win the race. Chase has been really impressive with his car so far. I like where this kid is going & Kyle's streak of being in the top 5 was snapped as soon as his tire gave out. Even Stenhouse had a good race. Next up, the Paperclip at Martinsville.

Dalcowboyfan92 Posted March 21, 2016 Share Posted March 21, 2016 AJ had a really great race. He had to start all the way in the back due to a gear change; but finishing in the Top 10 is really good. AJ's been improving the past 3 weeks; I wonder how well he'll do when they go to race at The Paperclip in two weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"I've heard rumors for two years of Audi entering #NASCAR and know the interest has been there," Dillner tweeted on Tuesday. "My prediction is that it will happen." Hmmm, an A or S series car, Possible TT in Xfinity, nope pickup though. I'm for if it happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Newman Kyle gets the sweep & what a day for RCR. AJ drove really well today & just a lot of good racing today! Next up Texas for our first night race.

Dalcowboyfan92 Posted April 3, 2016 Share Posted April 3, 2016 I'm so happy for AJ; he ran a heck of a race. Wish he could've won instead of Rowdy; that'd have been a more pleasing victory in the Garage Area. This is AJ's second 2nd place finish at Martinsville. He wound up second in the 2012 Spring Race that became infamous for Clint Bowyer's banzai move that wiped him, Jeff Gordon and Jimmie Johnson out. We're going guns-a-blazin' this Saturday under the lights at Texas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LAWeaver Posted April 3, 2016 Author Share Posted April 3, 2016 I was rooting for Dinger at the end, but it just looked like he didn't have the speed needed to catch up with Rowdy. Odd day for Hendrick, especially for Martinsville. It just seemed like all four drivers were nonexistent except for Jimmie, but I don't think he even led a lap. @loganaweaver - Twitter / @loganaweaver - Instagram / Nike Vapor Untouchable Football Template / Logan's Logos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it shows the team still has some growing pains. It can also be a testament to how good a driver Busch is, how he managed to effortlessly pull away from AJ; even though AJ was giving it everything he could. AJ sounded really tickled pink that he passed Jimmie Johnson several times at Martinsville; considering how Jimmie's been so dominant at the Paperclip over his career.

Harvick A late start but a good race & pitting for tires was key on this race, just ask Austin Dillon & Martin Truex Jr who didn't... Impressive comeback for both Kyle & Chase tonight & Little E also looked pretty good, all of Hendrick looked good as did most of Joe Gibbs Racing. Next up... It's Bristol baby!!!
