Quite a bit of smoke coming from the 3 car. Trouble?

The 3 car had some smoke coming from underneath it for about five min. Looked like there was a little brief smoke coming from the 9 as well, but both have stopped.
Report from the RCR team is that ADillon car/engine is fine (teams are doing engine checks and there was some smoke coming out of the car)

When I mentioned qualifying, I was speaking of the cup series. I don’t do fantasy for trucks and Xfinity.
Richard, I have no preference if each league awards qualifying or not! —same for everyone.
As far as Cup I like to see at least 1 practice —prefer 2. I enjoy watching qualifying but it doesn’t always tell you how a car will perform in the race. IMO. Qualifying points do add a little more to shoot for!
One practice wouldn't hurt at all. My or not help us much,but it surely would have to be beneficiary to the drivers.
The qualifying races in Bracketology will be throw back races of sorts for us. Pick 8 drivers prior to qualifying,all will be eligible for qualifying points. Between qualifying and the start of the race narrow it down to 4 starters,only those 4 will receive race points.

JMO, I’d go with Harvick. Kyle just doesn’t seem up to par. Kyle was in Bristol racing on the dirt ...dirt, the stuff Kyle is made for & he finished 5th... 5th!!! The only Kyle that performed at Bristol in that race was Larson, he won it .... not good for Busch’s confidence... JMO
Kevin & Kes have traded wins @ Atlanta the last 4 years,it's Kes turn crew chief or not. Bullins will still be in close contact.
