A good read.....

Adam Stern
@DennyHamlin told Jim France in March that until he and his partners see a change in @NASCAR’s business model, all further major investments in @23XIRacing are on hold. The bold statement underscored Hamlin's growing influence as he pushes for change.

All Star Race was boring except when Chastain decided to play a Sherman tank when he ran over Busch

i'm stunned that Hamlin is bitching that they should've black-flagged Blaney for not having the proper window netting and Hamlin should've been awarded the win. i've always thought Hamlin was a whiny little clown so this doesn't surprise me.
if he never wins a championship it must be his bad Karma that bites him after he runs his pie hole.
oooops, did i type that out loud. LOL

not Nascar related, but my boys had some steam under the hood this past week.

Hopefully it'll help because the last couple of tracks they went to this tire cluster is getting to be too much.!!!

The tire problem is from teams starting the run with very low tire pressure to achieve the tire pressure they want when tire temps and pressure rise during the run. They'll have to work through it.

Also they are still learning and building notebooks on the independent rear suspension.

One thing of note, the all star race at Texas had tough to pass conditions compared to Kansas. I'm wondering how that plays out for Charlotte. I feel Charlotte is closer to Texas than Kansas ... Maybe I "fear" Charlotte is closer to Texas LOL.

With these low profile tires and running low air pressures That's just stupid on the teams part to even try to do that because you see the problems it creates.! But it's still learning curve.!

You know they are going to push the limits. They need to cross the line to know where it is.

Every track has different banking, so it's going to take some races on each to get it all figured out for tire pressure. Why they can't get the single lug nut problem solved ?? It's not like its something totally new to racing. Everyone have a good day and good luck with your picks.
