Good luck all!

Thanks even a blind squirrel finds a nut now & then...

Announced today that Dale Earnhardt Jr. will not be driving at either Michigan or Darlington. He underwent further evaluation earlier today at the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center Sports Medicine Concussion Program but was not cleared to return.
Alex Bowman will be in the drivers seat at Michigan and Jeff Gordon will return as the substitute driver for Darlington.

 

[Budnicks]

Man, Dale Jr. has got a bad concussion I guess, long time out
must have been far worse than it looked like...

Makes you wonder how many others had it too, didn't go through the
concussion protocol, or just ignored it...

Best to be safe, than sorry....

 

[ocdart]

No Pole pick winner for the Michigan race.
#20, Joey Logano, was quickest in qualifying today but nobody liked him enough to pick him.

 

[ocdart]

Congratulations to 'daredevil' (FABO) and 'paulyv. 100' (FABO) for their good call in picking #42 Kyle Larson as the Michigan race winner! They each picked up -5 bonus points.
Congrats also to 'Snake' (FABO) for being the only one to pick the race runner-up, #24 Chase Elliott, and getting -3 bonus points.

[Riverdawg]

Tony Stewart for the Pole. Take Kyle Busch for one of my race picks. Keeping Martin Truex Jr #78. Auto-Owners Insurance is the primary sponsor for the Darlington race. As much as I'm not a fan of the Toyota's, I gotta support my employer. Martin made a visit to work a couple weeks ago. He spoke to the crowd on us that had gathered around, he authographed my diecast car box and I got a picture with him.
