Gotta be driver of the year

[NeedforLM$peed]

Gotta be driver of the year

I think that pretty much clinched it.

Wonder if they'll do another impound. Mark must be fuming. Did I count 7 longhorns 1 Rocket and 2 Bloomquist cars in the top 10?

[B_K]

A bunch of that Big E money heading south after that one. Paint it red and black boys!

[kazual]

“We are watching how winning is supposed to be done………driver, team,fans,all of it.”Yessir BBQ, no drama, no hype, just confident professionalism on Overton’s part.

[chupp n bloomer fan]

Gotta agree. His demeanor, just very low key, but absolutely confident. And no fans with cough, cough, blinders on.

And they just get their job done. And do it professionally.

[Dlmfan123]

Terbo in the wall.86 to go.Caution as Ferguson does a 360 in the middle of the field!Winger must of spent too much time in Illinois

[Barbecueboy]

It’s really great to see…..by all of them.

They almost make it impossible not to like them and root for them…….The quick conversation between Ben and David Wells in victory lane just shows me that they are TEAM of professionals….top to bottom.

And then Brandon so Humble and appreciative to boot……wow y’all……that’s impressive.

[AllenK]

I guess I'm getting even more soft-hearted, as I age,but I was genuinely misty-eyed more han a few times last night. The videos and commentaries have just been amazing.

Overton in victory lane about got me. Very refreshing to see genuine humility and humbleness. It was a great moment.

[T-MAC 39 FAN]

Glad to see Overton win but T-MAC run from 19th was good also just came up a lil short.

He’s gonna be trouble this weekend, like his style too and he is fast and fearless.

same thing I was thinking.
Longhorns, Bloomquist, are not married to the cushion like a Rocket, they are in the track, while Rockets skate across it.
Looks like Rocket needs to go back to the drawing board.... maybe time for an XR2
cause the XR1's look awful. No side-bite or forward traction. Look to be a good drift car though :)

[Highside Hustler25]

I think that pretty much clinched it.

Wonder if they'll do another impound. Mark must be fuming. Did I count 7 longhorns 1 Rocket and 2 Bloomquist cars in the top 10?

Yep, bet Mark put Rocket Chassis up for sale this AM.🙄

Bet Mark has a longhorn on a jig somewhere trying to figure it out…….good for him, he ain’t a dummy.
