@NatronBaum @bobpockrass It’s been a few years, so my memory’s a little hazy, but if I remember right, Kyle continually being sponsored by https://t.co/lp7PpRk5AT was a deliberate decision by Mr. H to further promote the brand, not the result of being unable to land sponsorship.

@Devren20_01 @jeff_gluck Hocevar didn’t run into Blaney at all, though. He crossed over and was turning in when Blaney moved down in front of him. What Hocevar did was very aggressive, but it was also clean.

@WillOFireFox @NASCAR @DAYTONA If he gets a single stage point or finishes better than 35th, he should clinch

[Paul Loebach @LoebachPaul]

@EricHall4 @DanielKriete4 Why shouldn’t it? If they aren’t finishing that high, then they’re getting less of a payout, not to mention the Truck Series is a much lower payout as it is compared to other series. I’d expect it to be a year at least before things start turning around.

@Tom_Engels_Desk @DouglasGoldZ I don’t know how true it is today, but I remember hearing something about smaller teams having used engines/chassis that were several years old, like the cars they used were run by a top team some three to four years previously.

@CodyE25 @bobpockrass Bowman’s driver points wouldn’t be affected at all. As for the #48 owner’s points, either it’d lose one race or NASCAR would allow Hendrick to combine points between the #48 and whichever car number Bowman drives, sorta like how they’re treating the #8 and #133 points this season

@LetsGoCle @4andFuelPodcast I think you mean the elimination format. 2017 was the 14th year of the Chase

[Tom Fawkes 🔥🔮 @TomFawkes]

RT for your chance

[Paul Loebach @LoebachPaul]

@nascarfanbw23 @bobpockrass Yeah, the 33 as it is now is listed as the “133” in owner’s points, and it basically inherited/will inherit the 8 owner points. The “33” owner points are what points the 33 accrued before Busch’s passing.

@JeepersCrow_ @FartnRoses41 @Justplainbob1 @jeff_gluck Plus, don’t just assume you know what I know. I’ve been watching this sport since the early 2000s. I never said this car didn’t have general issues, but that’s, again, not relevant to the topic at hand. This conversation is over, since you clearly have nothing worthwhile to add.

[Paul Loebach @LoebachPaul]

@JeepersCrow_ @FartnRoses41 @Justplainbob1 @jeff_gluck Oh boy, here we go…

You just proved my point. 5 brake failures tonight. Tell me, when else has this specific kind of brake failure happened in the past 4 1/2 years of the next gen?

Meanwhile, you’re sensationalizing with exaggerated rhetoric just to make yourself sound smart.

[Paul Loebach @LoebachPaul]

@JeepersCrow_ @FartnRoses41 @Justplainbob1 @jeff_gluck That’s irrelevant. We’re talking about a problem that’s never happened in this car before this weekend. Then you just start bashing everything with unnecessarily rude language, which is classless and not contributing anything to the conversation.

Hope you have a nice day.

[Paul Loebach @LoebachPaul]

@JeepersCrow_ @FartnRoses41 @Justplainbob1 @jeff_gluck That has nothing to do with anything in this thread.

[Paul Loebach @LoebachPaul]

@JeepersCrow_ @FartnRoses41 @Justplainbob1 @jeff_gluck It’s still just a theory, but a very plausible one. The brakes are blowing before the drivers are pressing the brake pedals going into turn 1.

[Paul Loebach @LoebachPaul]

@JacobP99301 @DLand91 Maybe he accidentally toggled it without meaning to?

[Paul Loebach @LoebachPaul]

@David_Nance57 @bobpockrass Just speculating here, but did the 3 car earn fastest lap? Maybe that’s how the program tracks something like that.

[Paul Loebach @LoebachPaul]

@Xero__001 @bobpockrass I don’t think it would’ve made a difference. Day had enough momentum off of turn 4 and he also had lapped cars as a pick.

[Paul Loebach @LoebachPaul]

@Canes3488 @jeff_gluck Yeah, they were complaining. It was all over the place, how Elliott was “not deserving” or the “Mickey Mouse” championship. What made it different then was that Harvick failed to make the championship 4, so most of the outrage was the week prior.

@TimSimm54589844 @bobpockrass *Buescher

[Paul Loebach @LoebachPaul]

@TimSimm54589844 @bobpockrass No, because he’s only 83 points ahead of Burscher. If Reddick has a bad day, Buescher can potentially get within 57 points.
