Ty Majeski is the truck series’ Bubba Wallace – when he’s up front he leads laps but as soon as he’s back in traffic he’s stuck in traffic. I couldn’t tell you the number of times Bubba has led a Cup race and as soon as a pit stop puts him 8th or so he’s not heard from again. Ty has a similar pattern in trucks. Today wasn’t quite as bad for Ty as he did fight his way back up to win stage two but the comparison is pretty valid.
The 2013 dupont pinonier 250 nationwide series (now xfinty series) was was supposed to run on sat jun 8 at 8pm est but got postponed due to rain to sun jun 9 at 11a est and the cup series party in the Poconos race was scheduled to start at 1p and the races overlapped
Yep it was ridiculous that they went to an ad break after the first corner. They couldn’t even wait til the first lap was completed. Can’t wait for Fox to F off.
The Jamie Little stuff sucks because she’s great and I think everyone loves her but man she’s just not good in the booth. She’s so likable so I really wish she was good but she just isn’t and it’s a shame
Please Cup Series come to Portland. I know our facilities aren’t top tier but it’s a great track and it would be so nice to have a local cup race. Right now I have to fly to Vegas as the nearest Cu Series track and that sucks.
I think the cup series needs to go to Portland and remove one of the other Road Courses. I like that track. It’s shorter than the others that they go to and it seems more exciting being able to see the cars closer and lapped traffic would come into play sooner with 36-40 cup cars.

Great comparison
Very true!
I hate how accurate that is
The title made me think it was multiclass racing with both races on the track at the same time.
Now I want that to be a thing, c’mon NASCAR. Also someone just give Wile E. Coyote a license already and put him in a car, sheesh
I will be at wwt speedway tomorrow and no rain so far
I will be cheering on chase briscoe and my daughter will be cheering on William Bryon
The adding a lap looked like NASCAR to me. The lights would b out on the pace car n then they’d add a lap n turn them back on
Love SVG

Fox should do every race in all 3 series
That’s sarcasm, right?
I was at the Portland race. It was a fun time and the crowd really enjoyed the battle between SVG and Justin. Solid 8
The xfinity coverage was solid except for their love affair with Kligerman. The truck coverage sucked as usual.
Not sure about the coverage in the US but it cut to an ad after the first corner. There were then 3 ad breaks by lap 8.

SVG was the quickest all day. He just made it hard from restarts.
Covering to post races in one day,I enjoy the Xfinity race and I tell you what a battle an one hell of a burn out post race celebration.

was at WWTR and was able to celebrate right at the flagpost when my main guy won, could actually see myself on tv afterwards
AJ missed turn 4 in qualifying and started in the rear, and with a lack of yellows drove through the field. It was awesome to watch in person.
I really enjoyed having Jamie McMurray on the broadcast. I thought he did a great job for Fox today.
