Jaret LundbergHOST
He gets a race win.
Jaret LundbergHOST
for what is in spirit the same thing that's that's my thing and then to go with the bubble wallace thing at atlanta like i agree i think that that is a penalty it's an easy penalty it it is though the explanation after nascar doesn't give an explanation i mean i saw uh dale jr arguing about it and he goes well it just depends on who's interpreting it i'm like if that's the way that we're crowning you know winners and possibly champions Then either we need to completely rewrite it or just get rid of it as, ironically enough, Dale Jr. pushed on a broadcast in front of 3 million people.
Jaret LundbergHOST
So I'm just – I'm tired of this rule because it's – I mean it's taking completely away from the conversation.
Jaret LundbergHOST
I don't think rule or not what Kyle Larson did after watching it back over really should be taking this away or anything.

Danny BHOST
and when when he hopped into chevrolet in the eight every race i started going to i i started hearing cheers there for him during driver directions maybe outside of bristol he always got booed at bristol but i think that was more of a respectful boo at that point
Jaret LundbergHOST
Well, and I think it is worth questioning long-term, like how relevant is an internet vote to who's most popular? Because I would agree.
Jaret LundbergHOST
I think after Dale Jr. retired, I think Kyle Busch, for a good while there, was probably the most well-known name in NASCAR.
Jaret LundbergHOST
You might even argue up to his passing.
Toby ChristieHOST
I just think that's silly.
Toby ChristieHOST
Honestly, I think Dale Jr. should be running the sport.
Toby ChristieHOST
Yeah, he should.
Kerry MurpheyHOST
Every week he's got the best comments of all the podcasts, including us.
Trey LyleHOST
they'd be like, where's Dale
Caleb BarnesHOST
Jr.? And not have no idea that Dale Jr.
Caleb BarnesHOST
retired 10 years ago.
Trey LyleHOST
Yes, well, speaking of people racing next season, Brad Keselowski set to announce this weekend his future plans.
Jordan McAbeeHOST
Like...
Jordan McAbeeHOST
I think it was on Dale Jr.'s
Nick GiffenHOST
podcast.
Nick GiffenHOST
But it wasn't even egregious.
Rusty TaylorPANELIST
up next to the wall, a single car almost a whole day.
Robert FetnerGUEST
Reminded me of the last Earnhardt Jr. win.
Rusty TaylorPANELIST
Yeah.
Robert FetnerGUEST
When they all got along the wall.
Noah ReedGUEST
And when the driver in the car matters, that combination comes together and you're going to have separation.
Noah ReedGUEST
Like I think of gaps, like when you watch like a 2000 super speedway race, you know, yes, but if you're not, you know, chasing after Dale Jr, like you're fading away because you can't stay, your car can't stay up there with the outside of, you know, like the restarts.
Noah ReedGUEST
And so I think if you were to have more of the spacing instead of every, you know, like If they don't wreck the 40 cars are going to stay right together right until the end, just because the cars are so even with this next gen platform that you don't have that, you know, that, that rubber band effect where you're having a few cars trickle off here, a couple of guys trickle off there.
Noah ReedGUEST
It's just, everyone's under a blanket.
Will BuxtonHOST
A historic weekend sweep, scoring his first career Craftsman Truck Series win in overtime on Friday before snapping a 53-race O'Reilly Auto Parts Series winless streak with a dramatic last lap pass on Saturday night.
Will BuxtonHOST
Checkered flag lap was the only one Sammy Smith led all day as he became the first driver to win multiple series races at the famous 2.66 mile high banker since his team owner, NASCAR Hall of Famer Dale Earnhardt Jr. did it back in April 03.
Will BuxtonHOST
And Smith becomes the first non-cup series driver to sweep both the NASCAR Craft, easy for me to say, put my dentures back in.
Will BuxtonHOST
I'll just say truck series.
Kaitlyn VincieHOST
What an amazing weekend.
Kaitlyn VincieHOST
The guy, I mean, talking to him before the race, he was saying, you know, how much he leaned on Dale Jr.
Kaitlyn VincieHOST
Obviously for insight about how to race that place.
Kaitlyn VincieHOST
But, you know, from how good Dale was there, but I'm not sure he even expected he was going to win both those.
Mamba SmithHOST
That is what I want to hear.
Mamba SmithHOST
I like that.
Kaitlyn VincieHOST
First guy to do that since Dale Jr. in 03.
Kaitlyn VincieHOST
Pretty cool feat.
Jerry PunchGUEST
So it means it wasn't, he wasn't that far from the front and his cars began to shuffle and cars began to run out of fuel and others got high and got blocked.
Jerry PunchGUEST
Uh, He just stayed in the throttle, a la Dale Earnhardt style, and with a little help from his friends, with I think Ross Chastain helped push him down through the field, and he was able to beat his teammate, William Byron, by 41,000th of a second, and to win at Talladega.
Jerry PunchGUEST
So it looked like Larson was going to finish 12th to 15th.
Jerry PunchGUEST
It looked like in the last lap he may finish just outside the top 10, and then in typical Talladega fashion, He finds a way through the field and through the maze of cars to win the race and walk away with a very comfortable 73-point lead with two races to go.
Jerry PunchGUEST
and increase the horsepower.
Jerry PunchGUEST
So what they were hoping to be able to do is make it a little bit easier to pass.
Jerry PunchGUEST
Remember when we had the area where the cars could catch each other, but the old Dale Earnhardt Jr. line, when you called somebody, it was like you had a beach ball between your bumper and their bumper.
Jerry PunchGUEST
You couldn't get up to them and you couldn't get past them because of the pillow of air between the cars.
Ross TatumHOST
Yeah, probably the worst race of the weekend, I'd say.
Ross TatumHOST
It was, I don't know, has Dale Jr. himself ruined Super Speedway racing in the ORAP series? I mean, I feel like that's a valid question.
Ross TatumHOST
He's basically told his drivers to not race each other until the end of the race, and even then, if they wreck each other, they're in trouble, right? So...
Ross TatumHOST
When you got five of the best cars, because I'll throw Corey Day in there as well, when you got the five best cars on the track at Super Speedways, I think me and you can probably agree they've overtaken RCR the past year and a half at Super Speedways in speed.
