“Go, Bo, go,” Trey Lyle sang in Michael Massie’s absence.
On this week’s episode of Happy Hour, hosts Trey Lyle, Davey Segal, Caleb Barnes and Bryan Nolen discuss just a few of the many storylines following the NASCAR Cup Series’ Chicago Street Race.
The new time limit rule had a surprisingly positive reaction; should NASCAR consider implementing it more often? Does Bubba Wallace deserve a penalty after making contact with Alex Bowman on the cool-down lap? What should the future of street racing look like, both in Chicago and in NASCAR as a whole? All of these topics will be discussed — and even debated.
Plus, the guys react to the news that Spire Motorsports added Rodney Childers to their ranks and what this move means for Corey LaJoie‘s future.
For the bonus topic, the team lists which two drivers would make the best pairing for each country if the Olympics, hypothetically, had a motorsports category this year.
