  • Buescher Wins Round 2

    On this episode Rick and Trace go over Round 2 of the playoffs at Watkins Glen. We seen Chris Buescher take on SVG for the win and he came out on top after a last lap slipup by SVG in the bus stop.

    There was a ton of action on track and some may say that is a good thing and some may say its a bad thing. It seems everyone has no problem getting into one another now a days and everyone just gets used up.


    Did the ending save this race? Is this a current Trend in Nascar?

                8. Briscoe Shocks the Field

                  Chase Briscoe shocked the playoff field this week after taking home the Win at the Southern 500. Kyle Larson took home Stage 1&2 but after a late caution by Carson Hocevar the field was set back straight after several green flag pitstops and multiple strategy's were being played. Denny and Larson were both sitting in cat bird seat until it happen. After that caution the intensity picked up and as the saying goes "Cautions breed Cautions". Eventually Chase was able to get around Larson on a late restart after we seen differing strategies by the field.
