While NASCAR races are ok and can be fun to watch, and seem like a grown mans soap opera sometimes,
I like watching soooooooo, much more when RG is running a full race.

Ok, just buzzed and thinking out loud

Since this is an impound race.......What would be the changes if it were not let's list them HHHMMM
Springs.......shocks........lighter rotors and such........I mean if you are a start and park you could roll out a "trimmed out car" or something........ tape it up and rip off a wicked lap and then be in the race with a car not fit to race right? Insight any members of the team?
There is a difference between a race that is an "impound" and a race that simply has qualifying last I believe so some teams can really get an advantage having lighter parts turning and putting the weight back into the car with ballast. I mean did I turn back into a rookie with no clue cause I have not been watching races fully for awhile???????????????????

Exactly. Ultralight oils, rotors. I think one year a team actually left some engine belts off and pulled in on the first lap and put them back on. Advantage S&Per's.

To be honest, after Sunday, I really thought I'm done, I'm out. But now I can't help it, I'm looking forward to Talladega. Good luck Robby!

There's always light at the end of the tunnel! RGM always has 120% support from me!

Expect to see the Go or Go Homer's near the bottom of the speed charts. They likely will be trying to make as many single car laps as possible. The other drivers will be trying out the 2-car tango packages and producing very fast speeds. So if you see RG near the bottom don't panic.

As long as all of the other GOGH's are at the bottom as well I don't think there will be much to complain about. But if the 7 isn't on the speed chart after the 1st half-hour has passed, that's when everyone will hit the panic button.

and they shouldn't "panic" ....
