It’s Monday. Ahhh… now that feels better! Nascar is back and held the first preseason race on Sunday night. It was run at Bowman Gray Stadium in North Carolina which is a very short track. Usually that means that the track is a half mile in length. However, in this case the track at Bowman Gray is even shorter, at only one-quarter of a mile. Put 23 cars on a track that small and you get a lot of damaged cars, many bruised egos, and just one driver with a huge grin on his face. In this case it was Chase Elliott who came out grinning with the win.
Next up are the Duel races on Thursday night in Daytona, Florida. These races will determine the lineup for the Daytona 500. Looking forward to those!
Oh, apparently Punxsutawney Phil did see his shadow, so we got six more weeks of winter. Lovely.
Start Those Engines!
