Express Oil Change is based out of Birmingham, so it’s cool to see them in victory lane.

Entertaining race. Chaotic, but entertaining.

It was fun. Best Bristol race in a while.

Satisfied w/Chase finishing 8th. Finished strong after being marred back in the mid-20's. I need to lay into Gustafson more often.

Okay, when Denny held up his index fingers on both hands to signify he's #1, I laughed. Well done.

Can’t wait to see how NASCAR and/or Goodyear frick up a product they fell into.

Goodyear almost got it right on the money today. Hopefully they and NASCAR don't panic and overcorrect.

Hamlin is the perfect prick. He plays the role so well. Is it a bad thing that he’s my favorite driver

Hopefully the drivers don't overreact, either.

Him signifying that he was #1 was hilarious.

Right on cue, Larson says he hopes he never has to run another race like that again.

I hope they don’t make any changes to the tire/PJ1. NASCAR is too reactionary sometimes

I thought that kind of racing would be right up his alley.

That was disappointing and surprising to hear from Larson. Sounds like he wants to go back to just being able to slam the gas to the floorboard with little strategy or tire wear involved. A race where aero is the biggest factor. In short, sounds like he would prefer to go back to the boring Bristol.

I'm shocked that's coming from him. He's usually not a pussy.

Hopefully he's an outlier.

Everybody that can manage tires capitalized. Not a coincidence that Hamlin, Truex, and Keslowski are the top 3

This brings me back to Chase finishing 8th after being marred back in the mid-20's midway through. He's always been one of the best on the circuit of managing his tires, and his finish proved that.

I think the extreme tire wear was the issue.

Tire wear is generally good for racing. Blowing out tires in less than 25 miles is not.

The teams who know how to manage tires adjusted and it made for a very good race.

Bowman got out of the car complaining too.

Just foolish.
