Been noticing Harry Gant in this slot quite alot !
"Handsome Harry" had a 4 race win streak in Winston Cup and also 2 wins in the Busch Series, all in the month of September, 1991 ... which also gave him the nickname "Mr. September"

uncontrolled tires are gonna be a problem... they already are :(
Larson just got a penalty ..... grrrrrrrrr
Brutal !!!
Gas might be a problem. Kyle Busch is already going to idle , and Keselowski faded.
bummer for Truex on the soft tire, but saves his race for later.

I shudda factored that in. Definitely a solid trend.
I been factoring in everything, every race.
I study stats , tracks, drivers, teams, cars... everything.
lmao, but I always never seem to get past about mid-pack in our pool standings :eek:
And that's been about the same every year we had these pools in the past too.
And currently, I am dead last in another on-line pool I play in :)
Maybe I should just wing it from here on :)
He wasn't Driving the M&M's Car...!
lol.... yup that was their mistake :)
Weather break. The race is official, hopefully they will finish it.
That just ain't fair :eek:

Weather break. The race is official, hopefully they will finish it.
I needed this to happen when Stenhouse was out front.
He dropped back to 7th or 8th at the time of caution :eek:
Looks good for Bowyer thou :)

05-06-2018, 08:54 PM
lol.... yup that was their mistake :)
If I had known ahead of time that They switched His Car I wouldn't have picked Him to be there in the Top 3...! As far as Larson, just a Freaky Bad Break...!
Weather break. The race is official, hopefully they will finish it.
There wasn't much on the radar, so hopefully it will lift soon.

the nascar.com site will show each of the cars to race at any given race.
At that site, look for the tab labeled as NEWS.
Open that and should find the link to view the car schemes.
this one is Kyle B's car (with driveshaft still intact)...

lol... Tricky Ricky :)
These guys will sometimes use a car that had previously won at any given track. Of course it would have a new engine and other running gear, but chassis might be same.
The paint schemes are a per-ordained thing , sponsers are a big part of nascar.
One time it was the car manufactures that helped sponser the sport, then came spnsers like Motor Oils and things.. then came the first sponser that was not automobile related and that changed everything..That was Winston cigarettes, I think...
It was a cigarette company, maybe not Winston thou.
Obviously tobacco companies are no longer involved but they did a big part.
That Pedigree Dog Food car scheme Kyle B is or was driving today has been one of Kyle's main sponsers since his rookie year, but we only see the car scheme a few times yearly.
