TOUCHDOWN, MANCHESTER UNITED WINS THE RACE

Back injury from an atv accident.

Man, I don't think I've ever seen a wilder Talladega race! Bumper cars most of the day, and I lost count of all the big ones. I'd say over half the field was in or apart of an accident today.

At one point I heard that just 19 cars were left in the race, and a good bit of those had already been smashed.

Welp, I'll be glued to my TV most of the day. Watching the Monaco Gran Prix right now, the 100th Indy 500 is later today, and the Coke 600 is tonight. The Sunday before Memorial Day is always a big day in racing!

Tony Stewart won today's race at Sonoma, fulfilling one of the waiver requirements he needed to make the chase after missing the first part of the season due to injury.

He still needs to be in the top 30 by the end of the regular season, which shouldn't be an issue given that he's only 9 points behind the 30th place driver currently.

Swimming Olympic Trials are going on right now, so that's cool.

I heard there was a nice brawl last night in the Trucking series.

Jeff Gordon will be driving in this week's race at Indianapolis! He's subbing in for Dale Jr. who missed last week's race due to a concussion(?), and is apparently still recovering from it.

Full story on NASCAR's website. Jeff will also be subbing for Dale at Pocono after this week!

So I heard a car blew up at Walkin's Glen yesterday. The car came to a stop, then something in or near the engine bay blew up with no fire. No one seems to know what happened, and NASCAR has impounded the car until a cause can be determined.

Denny Hamlin won tonight's race at Richmond, and we have our chase grid:

1. Brad Keselowski, No. 2 Team Penske Ford (four wins)
2. Kyle Busch, No. 18 Joe Gibbs Racing Toyota (four wins)
3. Denny Hamlin, No. 11 Joe Gibbs Racing Toyota (three wins)
4. Kevin Harvick, No. 4 Stewart-Haas Racing Chevrolet (two wins)
5. Carl Edwards, No. 19 Joe Gibbs Racing Toyota (two wins)
6. Martin Truex Jr., No. 78 Furniture Row Racing Toyota (two wins)
7. Jimmie Johnson, No. 48 Hendrick Motorsports Chevrolet (two wins)
8. Matt Kenseth, No. 20 Joe Gibbs Racing Toyota (two wins)
9. Joey Logano, No. 22 Team Penske Ford (one win)
10. Kurt Busch, No. 41 Stewart-Haas Racing Chevrolet (one win)
11. Kyle Larson, No. 42 Chip Ganassi Racing with Felix Sabates Chevrolet (one win)
12. Tony Stewart, No. 14 Stewart-Haas Racing Chevrolet (one win)
13. Chris Buescher, No. 34 Front Row Motorsports Ford (one win)
14. Chase Elliott, No. 24 Hendrick Motorsports Chevrolet (on points)
15. Austin Dillon, No. 3 Richard Childress Racing Chevrolet (on points)
16. Jamie McMurray, No. 1 Chip Ganassi Racing with Felix Sabates Chevrolet (on points)

Next week will be the first race of the chase for 2016.

Moving on to the round of 8 in the chase: Jimmie Johnson, Kurt Busch, Joey Logano, Matt Kenseth, Kyle Busch, Kevin Harvick, Carl Edwards and Denny Hamlin.

Austin Dillon, Martin Truex Jr., Chase Elliott and Brad Keselowski were eliminated during this round. Two of the drivers (Truex and Brad) might have had a chance to stay alive, but had engine failures during the race.

Darn :/

That's what I say... Pretty much everyone I was hoping would do well have ended up getting cut.
