What's not to say they make and prep a car for Smoke and just slap a 15 and HScott Motorsports sticker on it.

The wording of the four-car team rule prevents this. If a driver races for one team and has an ownership stake in another, both teams count towards the limit.

Brian France donated $2,700 to Carly Fiorina, $2,700 to Jeb Bush and $50,000 to a Jeb Bush SuperPAC earlier this month. Everything else he touches has turned to poo poo so maybe he can turn the Trump train around too.

Chase Elliott was invited by NASCAR to fly on a NASCAR plane to be at a campaign event for someone NASCAR totally isn't endorsing! Also, Brian France isn't sure what some of Trump's policies are but dammit he's gonna support him because :supaburn:ELECTRICITY:supaburn:

The yellow was already out when he turned away from pit road, the Fox graphics were behind.

Of course people know who Dale Jr's dad is, he's driving the number 88 that his father made famous.

Apparently one lug nut had no threads so it looked like there were five nuts on the wheel but one was just glued there.

Anyone been to a Whelen Modified Series race? My local track (Meridian Speedway) has one in July. I figure for $10.50 a person it can't be too bad of a time.

I went to the circus of a race on the Daytona backstretch a couple years ago. It was bullshit but I have to imagine it would have been great on a real track.

Anybody here been to Daytona since the renovations? I usually go infield, but since I have some extra cash those new renovated grandstands look worth it to me. Looks a hell of a lot better for rain, much more space to hang and wait it out under the stands now. If anybody has been I'd love to hear how it was.

Last year's rain delay was definitely roomier than previous ones. Plenty of space under the stands. Wider seats and cup holders are a nice plus. You don't feel crammed in like the old stands. Biggest downside of the new stands imo is the bathrooms. Bring back the troughs so I can get in and out asap none of these drat urinals. Just sit far enough up that you're out of the splash zone at the finish.

Big rivalry heating up between Jimmie Johnson and Regan Smith apparently:

My dumb idea: make all the Xfinity races that draw less than 10,000 people anyway and make them part of a Sunday doubleheader. Hold the Cup drivers meeting before the Xfinity race is over so anyone wanting to run both will lose their starting position in the Cup race.

Josh Williams is doing a heck of a job in ARCA. I think he could do something with a decent opportunity.

That guy came to Jeff Gluck's Daytona tweetup last year and complained about the direction of the sport so much that it makes us look like die-hard Brian France supporters by comparison. Then he left because nobody had an extra pit pass for him. He had some good rants about NASCAR's media bias (NASCAR won't give him media credentials because he's too honest or something).

Late race restarts are gonna be loving hilarious. Someone's gonna cut the dogleg to make a move on the restart and nobody's going to let them back up before turn 1.
