Doug, Devin, and Dan break down the Homestead NASCAR season finales and toast the championships for Kyle Larson, Justin Allgaier, and Kaden Honeycutt. They also discuss what went awry for some title contenders, their biggest Chase surprises, and why Dan thinks a couple of drivers lost their fire late in the year. They also talk about whether or not Dodge is making a big enough splash in re-entering the Cup Series and if Spire's suspension of Carson Hocevar will change the young driver's behavior.
Doug, Devin, and Dan try to wrap their heads around a strange, dry Martinsville race and why a locked-in strategy and the tenor of the Gen-7 car made it that way. They also discuss the many ways that the title contenders paved the way for Kyle Larson to stretch his points lead and why NASCAR should have given in-race penalties to Carson Hocevar. They then break down Brad Keselowski's comments on his RFK separation and spell why there always is more than there is to the eye.
Doug, Devin, and Dan break down Kyle Larson's Cup Series title-suffocating Talladega comeback win and how the Cup Series race proved to be the most consequential for title-contenders all weekend. They also discuss the RFK Racing strategy and why that may never be seen again, if the smaller spoiler worked, and what could fix the drafting racing. They also talk about Sammy Smith's O'Reilly and Truck wins and preview the Hendrick-happy Martinsville track.
Tyler Reddick’s win and Kyle Larson’s clunker put seven drivers within a race’s points for the Cup title. Doug, Devin, and Dan give their main takes from Phoenix and why the title chase made for a better race. They also discuss why Dodge and ECR would partner and the latest on Keselowski. And they discuss “Talladega Nights…” and its effects on NASCAR, Tom Cruise in ARCA, and their Talladega outlook.
Devin Kupka gets a pet peeve off of his chest, as he returns to the show. He and Doug share their views from Charlotte Motor Speedway, including Devin's view from the grandstands and pit road post-race and Doug's look at the racing action high above Turn 4. They break down Chase Briscoe's break out and why any contender catching Kyle Larson in the points will be difficult. They also discuss the good racing in the O'Reilly and Craftsman Truck Series races, the moving Kyle Busch public memorial, Brexton Busch's future, and look ahead to Phoenix. Devin also unveils his two new jobs, including one very similar to Doug's...and what his next goal in life is.
With Devin away again, Doug and Dan break down Chase Briscoe's dominant Las Vegas performance and the spectrum-switches of Kyle Larson and Denny Hamlin. They also discuss the latest comments in the Keselowski-RFK split, the excellent Corey Day-Carson Kvapil Las Vegas/NOAPS finish, biggest surprises in the Chase, and their hopeful outlook on this weekend's Charlotte Motor Speedway triple-header.
Doug and Dan, sans Devin, break down Kyle Larson's dominant Kansas win and how big the points standings can still swing. They also look ahead to Las Vegas and Charlotte and wonder if Toyota has truly lost its edge. They also discuss the Kansas Truck Series rain delay, Jake Garcia's new ride, and why the fight against Corey Heim at Martinsville crossed a serious line. They also break down the bombshell Keselowski-RFK-departure news and Dan shares a theory about Tony Stewart, Brad Keselowski and Dodge. Dan also discusses why he thinks Denny Hamlin has lost his edge.
With Devin away, Michael Massie, co-host of "Frontstretch's Happy Hour" podcast every Tuesday at 7:30 p.m. discusses his vantage point inside the Hocevar-Blaney fracas at Bristol and how he sized up the entire, story-filled weekend. Doug, Dan and Michael also discuss the entertainment factor, tires, racing etiquette, and some drivers' missed Chase chances, and they preview Kansas.
