Richmond reminded us there are plenty of emerging contenders, including winner Kyle Busch and Kevin Harvick.
This week, here’s a sneak peek at what they all were thinking following the Crown Royal presents the Heath Calhoun 400 at Richmond International Raceway.
Saturday, Kyle Busch snapped a 21-race winless streak at Richmond.
What does all this prove? Well, first that Kevin Harvick is pretty sharp, and second, that practice isn’t just for getting your car as fast as it will go.
With multiple GWCs and double-file restarts, it’s now a game of roulette… and at Talladega, it’s more of the Russian variety than the Vegas.
Talladega featured a record 88 lead changes and three green-white-checkered attempts. Did that make it one of the best races ever?
The “lottery” that is Talladega these days usually shuffles the Power Rankings around like those ping-pong balls before they’re picked at random.
Considering fans’ reaction to any late-race yellow flag, we’re shocked throwing the caution for Bobby Labonte’s one-car incident isn’t getting more press.
Perhaps it’s appropriate a weekend of wild weather accompanied 500-plus miles of racing at Talladega.
