On this epiosde fo Talking in Circles we break down the weekend that was the All-Star weekend at Charlotte Motor Speedway. There was a a lot of controversy about the race and there was a lot of confusion during the event. We talk about that and whether or not we liked the format. We also talk about the rules package and what we'll expect to see for the 600 on Sunday. Joey Logano won his 1st career All-Star event, which locks him into the race for the next decade.
Also we discuss the Sprint Showdown and the epic finish we saw to that race and how all 3 drivers drove their way in and whether or not we liked that format. Plus we'll get into the debate about day racing vs night racing.
We also talk about Dollar General leaving NASCAR at the end of the 2016 season, including the $20 million deal with JGR and the No. 20 car. What does this mean for Joe Gibbs Racing and what does it mean for NASCAR, if anything?
Also 2017 NASCAR Hall of Fame Inductees will be announced on Wednesday. We'll discuss the nominations and who we think deserves to be in and who will get in.
The NASCAR Camping World Truck Series ran at the Charlotte Motor Speedway this weekend in the North Carolina Education Lottery 200. Matt Crafton was the winner, his 13th career race. We break down that race and give a rundown on the points for the event.
