    sad to see how fan interest has fallen off at most all the tracks..... sections weren't even open last sunday...... when jimmy spun out and hit the wall, there was one lone perv standing there......

    You could to pay me to sit there in the middle of the day in late July at 100+ degrees.

    It's a terrible date for this race imo.

    I've always said the night race at Bristol is the best of the season (honestly think night races are the best ) maybe get some lights at Indy and have a night race

    Don't hate Menard but after years of that team bringing along new talent since Bill Elliot's retirement, right back to giving Ambrose his first shot at a Cup race in 2007 and winning the 500 with Bayne, Wood Bros have had interesting drivers. Menard just doesn't seem to fit to me.

    Agree, menard is a HUGE step backwards for this team, not sure why they didn't grab up another young talent

    Dale Jr, to the broadcast booth, Move over Jeff. I figure JJ will be next from the Hendrick team.

    Menard is one of those guys that pops up at performing above expected at a handful of tracks. Not a sexy name, but they probably think he can do well.

    No reason to think he won't run well in better equipment

    Do you think the RCR equipment has held him back over the years?
    Not sure Wood Bros will be that much different.

    If I had a family sponsor to drive a major Cup car, I may have got 1 win in 383 starts.

    Well I can't drive a shift, so maybe not me lol

    Look at Elliot he has 61 starts and no wins and he's in a much better car , everyone says it's a matter of time but races keep drifting buy with no success

    I'll give anyone +100 he doesn't win s race this year

    I was thinking Elliot would be a success before Larson but I guess it goes to show time/experience probably is very important.

    Took Logano 3 years to start winning if i recall

    Yeah I would have been all over +100 on Elliot 2 months ago, but agree experience in Cup overrides young Talent almost always.

    over 0.5 wins was around -245 if I recall to begin season
