No mud this weekend, although it may be wet, especially Saturday evening. :( Cup and X-Men are scheduled to run while Trucks have the week off to power wash the mud away. The schedule from Nascar;

News and Notes
  • Will Cup finally get a repeat winner? 7 of 16 playoff spots filled, almost half. We may have to start talking about tie breakers.
  • Matt D tweeted - Woke up this morning and blew my nose. Consisted mostly of Bristol dirt
  • From Dale Jr's podcast
    • Dale Jr: “I bet you 5 years from now we will be sitting here and Bristol will have 2 dirt races.”
    • Marcus Smith: “In 5 years, we need a roof on Bristol.”
  • Last week an experimental rain tire was tested at Martinsville with the goal of maybe racing in the damp in short tracks. They could have tested some Mud & Snow compounds at Bristol.
  • The NextGen car was tested by Tyler Redrick at Darlington. How do I know?
  • Joey and Hamlin are on the front row for the Paperclip.
  • COVID - Jeff Gordon and Matt D's crew chief have tested positive for the virus.
  • TV ratings


iBoats Fantasy Live
  • Cup can't get any two-time winners, but iFL can. Tiz joins the two-timer list with his win at Bristol. Congrats, Tiz. Shake the dirt and dust out of this. 🏆

  • iFL rosters lock at 7:40 PM on Saturday.


Good luck and stay safe,
