Some good news for Gragson for next year...

Speaking of Crew Chief/Driver pairings... I wish that somehow Cole Pearn would return next year to Crew Chief for MTJ one more time before MTJ retires. They were successful together. He doesn't even live in the United States anymore apparently though. Still sucks that he left NASCAR.

Well, I didn't see this coming...

David Gilliland Racing shifts to TRICON Garage, teams with TRD

David Gilliland Racing announced a rebranding Thursday morning, unveiling a name change to TRICON Garage and a new manufacturer.

Confirms that Hailie Deegan is out of the 1 truck after this year. Also makes me wonder what Ford is going to do now after losing DGR. Front Row Motorsports with Zain Smith is the only other Ford ride in the truck series this year.

Welcome back Alex!

I knew it that Allmendinger would get screwed over. Fuck Justin Allgaier. Never have liked him. He better not win the Championship. The ending of that race was a mess. Out of the Champ 4 I am for Gragson all of the way. Lets do this Noah!

Ty Gibbs sure as hell won’t win it. Brandon Jones will make sure of it.

As far as Justin and AJ, didn’t see it. But from what I seen people saying, seems they both was beating and banging on each other. Sucks for AJ, but if AJ was banging back like I seen some saying, it’s just racing. But I need to go see everything before I can say

Well, it would be their last race as teammates. What a way to end it at JGR if Brandon makes sure that Ty Gibbs doesn't win the Championship.

As for the Allmendinger/Allgaier thing. It was beating and banging. Martinsville racing. Allmendinger wasn't sour about it after the race. I was just mad because it felt like Allmendinger was screwed over more than once in these last handful of races beyond his control. I still don't want Justin A. to win the Championship.

He also is going to JRM, so he would be helping his future team either way also

Of the 3 JRM cars idc which one wins. Noah probably deserves it the most of the 3. But I like Josh and Justin so any 3 is good for me haha. Just not Ty.

This man really ain’t comparing himself to Jesus is he?

 

[Hidden Blaze]

Also there was a fight after the race???

 

[Stellar]

If that Xfinity Series race is any indication for the cup race.... look out. Glad that the race is starting sooner than races have been this year. I miss when the races in the central time zone started this early instead of like 2:30.

Damn. Looked like Austin knocked Myatt out with a swift punch and start attacking him. Anyways, that was uncalled for.

LET'S DO THIS!!!

A little contact between Truex and Jones.
