The one major complaint that most viewers and I had is the fact that FOX wasn’t giving potential tire issues at Atlanta the attention that they deserved.

If there’s one thing that I can tell you right off the bat about Together: The Hendrick Motorsports Story, it is this. They talk about family a lot.
