The Nascar Thread

Yeah, it's sorta like when the Giants won the Super Bowl as a wild card. They weren't great during the regular season, but got hot at the right time. Joey ran a great race and we all knew before the race that he was just as capable of winning as the other 3.

I'm just relieved Byron didn't win. That would have been far more controversial. I imagine he would have gotten punted tho, lol. I thought he was going to have a big advantage with the timing of the last caution, but all of the other leaders pit, which you never want to happen when you're on 4 or 5 lap old tires. Went from an advantage to a disadvantage pretty quick.

Overall it was a typical NextGen race at Phoenix. Fun restarts, but overall racing was pretty boring.

I think Blaney would have won easily if that last caution hadn’t come out when it did - and the 12 got behind the 5. But you gotta race the race you get not the one you coulda had.

It’s also still pretty wild that Logano was out until Bowman didn’t make weight .
