Thanks for making me feel old. Off the top of my head they've added...Kentucky, Fontana, Kansas, Las Vegas, Chicagoland, Homestead, Texas & Brickyard They've removed Riverside, North Wilkesboro, Rockingham, Do we count the new Charlotte Quadrovaloval course or is that reaching? I guess we can count it

Its been 25 years today since Davey Allison crashed his helicopter I can still remember where I was at when I heard the news like it was yesterday. Race Hub had a great package about it yesterday I didnt start watching Nascar until 1990 so I didnt get to watch a lot of him before he past away but he was my favorite driver. I can still remember him winning the 500 and almost winning the Cup in 92 I was crushed when he wrecked in the final race that year.

I was going to a lot of Xfinity Series races when I was little. Then the Busch Series. Since that time, I've seen them add Miami, California, Texas, Kentucky, Vegas, Chicago, and I do remember them running at Indy for the first time. I had a little commemorative 94 1:64 scale die-cast of that race when I was little. Just a white car with blue numbers 94 and the lettering was Brickyard 400.
Sidebar, I want lights at Dover. I think that would be an awesome track to be at for a night race.

I have no idea if it’s the new splitter rule or what, but trucks aren’t putting on near the races they’re known for anymore.

I was eating breakfast at a restaurant with my mom and the waitress asked what was wrong and she said "his favorite race car driver got in a helicopter crash yesterday" and this old fart was just like "Allison? yea he died"...and went back to sipping his coffee....real knobber he was.

I was at my cousin's house the day he crashed, my uncle was a huge fan of his too and he came in and told us when the news first hit but I didnt think he would die I was more upset that he would miss some races and wouldnt win the championship I was only 8 or 9 at the time. Then the next day I was going to the pool with couple friends from school and I seen where he died on the TV I was so upset so I just stayed home .

Tonight's truck race wasnt great but I'm glad it came down to Rhodes and Friesen I rather had Friesen get the win but I like Ben too and it was his home track. I hope Eldora is a good race I usually enjoy the races there. Stewart should be strong there too but it just seems like he can't close the deal and get the win.

I remember it too. He was my grandma's favourite driver at the time. She was upset. That made 2 in just over 3 months. My mom's favourite was Alan Kulwicki. We know what happened there too.
Then Jeff Gordon came along, he became my grandma's favourite, and my mom gravitated towards Rusty Wallace.

Who knew that Ricky Stenhouse could make a bigger ass out of himself than he did at Daytona? 'least he's got that going for him.

This back and fourth between Busch and Stenhouse is more entertaining than anything I’ve seen on the track this year.

Good Xfinity race tonight ive said it before but I love to watch Hemric,Bell and Custer they look like they can be the future of the sport if they stay with the teams they're with(Bell&Custer) or get a good Cup ride(Hemric) they could be the new triplets in about 10 years.

Sounds like I made the right choice buying a Switch and binging Mario Kart 8 instead of watching Kentucky.
