Definitely not my best week. Had Busch who never bounced back from that early penalty. Logano was my backup and he had an awful day. Harvick didn’t help a helluva lot either. Combined with an OK run for Chase, Truex and Bell were my only bright spots. I also sucked on the predictions lol

Your winner, M-T-J! Truex brothers sweep at their home track in front of family! The #19 sweeps! So awesome! Really happy for Truex Jr to get this win after last year. He will for sure be in the playoffs this year at least.

Cool to see Rusty Wallace again.

(yes, I am late but I wasn't able to finish watching until tonight)

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

Legacy Motor Club switching to Toyotas next year. Jimmie Johnson affiliated with Toyotas. Toyota wanted Noah Gragson back so bad. That's what it was....

I was just coming here to see if you all had seen that. I guess it makes sense? Petty has always been willing to switch manufacturers, and Legacy was clearly at the bottom of the Chevy heap. Not sure what Toyota really gets out of the deal, but hey. Whatever works.

I'm very happy to see both Truex brothers sweep Dover! Congrats to both of them!

I think for Toyota it's about adding more drivers for like the super speedway racing. They currently only have like 6 drivers in the cup series driving Toyotas (JGR and 23XI). Ford has twice as much in the races and Chevy has even more than that. Legacy will still be at the bottom of the group of Toyota's but they probably think that with there being less of them compared to Chevys maybe they have a better chance of improving and being more competitive by switching.

So apparently Frankie Muniz is leading the points in the ARCA series. That's wild. Was listing to his recent interview and he really emphasized that he hopes to make it to Trucks or Xfinity next year. He is really wanting to make it to the cup series as soon as possible. He really is completely committed to this.
