The All-Star Race saw Kurt Busch go from zero to hero, charging by feuding JGR teammates Kyle Busch and Denny Hamlin in the final laps
Kyle Busch won the North Carolina Education Lottery 200 at Charlotte Motor Speedway. Doesn’t that just tick you off?
Watching the All-Star Race this past weekend got me thinking about other possible changes NASCAR might implement based on the non-points paying spectacular.
As Saturday night showed once again, short of the 10-lap trophy dash, NASCAR racing is leaving a lot to be desired at Charlotte Motor Speedway these days.
The first All-Star Race back in 1985 was 70 laps long and concluded in just over 40 minutes. We need this bloated freak show to get back to its roots.
Views expressed in the All-Star Race don’t reflect NASCAR’s regular season. Which brings us to the late-race scrape between Denny Hamlin and Kyle Busch.
After a rain delay, Kyle Busch took the checkered flag 0.228 seconds ahead of Todd Bodine to win the North Carolina Education Lottery 200 outside Charlotte.
Remind me again why we need the first 90 laps of the All-Star Race?
When it mattered most, Kurt Busch was there to earn the $1,028,309 purse and take home the trophy for the Sprint All-Star Race.
