Today's proof that the 10 car wasn't the problem, it was Danica.

That has to be the worst Talladega race I’ve ever watched.

Dunno who Christopher Justin Chase is but he done goofed.
And an update on the 42.
The National Motorsports Appeals Panel today heard and considered an appeal of an L1 level penalty issued on Oct. 17 to Chad Johnston (crew chief), David Bryant (car chief), Kyle Larson (driver) and Chip Ganassi Racing (owner), relative to the No. 42 Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series team at Talladega Superspeedway.
The penalty concerns the following section in the 2018 NASCAR Rule Book: Section 10.9.9.d Damage Vehicle Policy/Mechanical Repair.
The original penalty assessed: Johnston was fined $25,000; Bryant was suspended from the next Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series Championship Points Event; Chip Ganassi Racing was assessed with the loss of 10 Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series owner points; Larson was assessed with the loss of 10 Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series driver points.
Upon hearing the testimony, the decisions of the National Motorsports Appeals Panel are:
1. That the Appellants violated the Rules set forth in the Penalty Notice. 2. That the Panel affirms and upholds the original Penalty assessed by NASCAR.
The panel consisted of the following three individuals:
- Mr. Chuck Deery - Mr. Dixon Johnston - Ms. Cathy Rice
The Appellants have the right to appeal the decision of the National Motorsports Appeals Panel to the National Motorsports Final Appeals Officer, and the request must be made by noon CT on October 19, 2018.

It makes me sad when I watch races from a few years ago and see the stands so full at all tracks.. Bristol use to have like a minimum 5yr waiting list and even then you had to hope someone didnt renew their season tickets. Now people come into work and will give you tickets.

The two drivers that should win the championship (Kevin Harvick or Kyle Busch) not winning the championship yet the new most popular driver winning would be the most quintessential NASCAR thing ever. I'm not sure if it's Jimmie Johnson falling ass backwards into a record tying championship in 2016.. but it'd be pretty damn close.
EDIT: Also.. going to miss seeing drivers rip the top at Kansas (and other tracks) because that's going to go bye-bye next year.
