It’s gonna be interesting to see if Gragson can keep performances like his one at Vegas up. It’s promising at the very least.

Let’s not forget Briscoe was up there as well and qualified sixth. And that Gregson was second fastest in practice. We didn’t see any of that mile and a half for SHR last year. Not even with Harvick.

I agree, it’s a good sign. Now they have to focus on lineup stability and not risk losing Briscoe to rival teams

Lajoie racking up another solid top 40! In all seriousness he looked “racy” but Lajoie has run bad for soooo long and he hasn’t won anything since ARCA. I’m going to have to see Corey actually do something and finish before I believe it.

Pretty ok race. I mean larson had the dominant car and the only One who had pace to keep up was Reddick. Bummer that Reddick finished 2nd but he’ll win one of the RC’S or Kansas. I mean. Even with the Field at COTA Wrecking each other he somehow someway survived and Won last season.

As a chevy fan. Im happy to see the Bowties go 3 for 3 to Kick off 2024. But the same time I’ve seen everyone seem to worry about The 48 and 9 while the 24 and 5 are up front and fans asking why does HMS focus on Larson and Byron this this and that yadi yadi yada. I mean to Be fair. Elliott at Vegas is Hit and miss Plus He usually tends to Start his seasons relatively slow. It’s always been that way ever since he started winning. While Larson Byron and Bowman usually win Mega early in the season. But when the months of April May June come by that’s when Elliott starts going. If we get to those months and nothing changes then its the time to Push the Panic button and start being concerned

Idk why so many people ignore Chastain. He’s probably the most motivated driver out there and desperate for a championship, and I think he’s shown that he’ll be there in the end yet again. But for some reason we’re talking about how good Gragson did of all people

@S.K.R.E.Inc. March 5, 2024 at 1:41 am

They’re all Hendrick drones, whatever they say, they follow. Especially after their rant at Darlington last year. Chastain has the potential, it was shown at Phoenix last year where he was refusing to give up the lead to anyone, we need more of that

Pretty sure Spire is just getting more support all around. Hendrick and Trackhouse both have interests there, so it makes sense that they likely got some upgrades.

Gibbs was one person not mentioned in this video and he raced amazingly. Got held up in the pits and still got a top 5 finish. He’s almost guaranteed a playoff spot at this point

Reply
@Ka_Gg March 5, 2024 at 8:21 am

He’s definitely a guaranteed/near guaranteed for the playoffs. I don’t root for him but the talent is there. Anyone that watches can see it. I don’t care about whether he was spoiled. I care about what I see on the track.

I actually expect him to get a win this year and it wouldn’t surprise me if he snuck in another.

In regards to SHR, Briscoe was also in the mix, sometimes even in the top three most of the day. Not sure if a ln incorrect adjustment was made after the last round of pit stops or what happened but then he kind of dropped like a rock, but again a vast majority of the day he was a real contender. Definitely bodes well for SHR if they can keep showing up with good speed.

I’ve come around to Gragson. I originally thought he was annoying but I think he’s just one of those airy goofy fun loving types. I won’t say I’m a fan but I am rooting for him to have a good return. He did more in Vegas than he did all last season combined.
