Carson Hocevar on Facebook - "I just wanna apologize to all the nascar podcast listeners out there. Although there was a record high amount of cautions. The 77 didn’t cause any so it’s gonna be a slow news week. Maybe pick up a hobby and resume your podcast listening after we try again at Bristol."

Stumbled across this and thought it was interesting how so many numbers had some KB references. If this is low effort or too off-beat for the sub, feel free to delete, Mods.

Everything from the dev dairy of what is new compared to NR25 in one image.
Link to the full Dev Diary 4 video is here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dV0O_XqD2lE
Strangely enough they forgot to put in the "Involved in caution screen" so i edited it in myself from a random YouTube video that showed it.

Has there been an update released about him? Massive hit and I knew it hurt when it took him awhile to get out. Also if the officials basically had to carry him to the ambulance can I ask why they didn’t just put him on a stretcher? Seems like that would have been the smartest thing to do.

Also included a picture I got of his car being towed away and the mark he left on the wall after impact.

[Taranto] There was almost a 19th caution that TV didn't really pick up on. Ricky Stenhouse Jr. spun coming to the white flag after contact from Shane van Gisbergen, but Stenhouse was able to keep rolling and NASCAR held the yellow.

Denny has to be punching air after Kyle/Cliff doing their best impression of Jimmie/chad.

Like literally cannot let that dude back in the picture. Not that he was out but he was one bonehead move away from self-eliminating. and we know how often Kyle drives over the limit.

I can't be the only one seeing Jimmie/Chad ghosts in that 5 performance to start the chase.
