He has won enough races and more crown jewels than 3/4 of the drivers out there...how about just saying nice win for once?
    Haha that will never happen. Wait until Bloomquist retires, they will say he wouldn’t win a race if Bloomquist was still racing lol. Most his hater will die off, while he keeps racing? Got another 20+ years of them coming up with reasons and they find new reason as the years passes.

      KG gets a lot of praise for prep but hes hit n miss, more times than not the guys are laying rubber in the 1st set of hot laps...but Tri City usually has a top side to contend with the bottom, for some reason it wasnt there last night, imo he was def stingy with the water truck track was dry from the get go...

          The big names get all the print, and they deserve it mostly, but I want to say nice job to the 75 of Drake and car owner Ray Neltner. They got a 10th finish and passed some big names to do it. Thats a small team compared to most. Good job boys!

            Should have farmed the track before the main. Congrats to Bobby and D-B.

                I watched the race last night and it's been a very long time since I can remember Tri-City being that way..

                It was nice to see Bobby get the W..

                  So was it a slick track or a rubbered up track? Because they're exact opposites.

                    ^^^ I was wondering the same thing. Based on lap times and the dust coming off the cars from any footage I saw, my guess was slick. But I wasn't there, so I don't know.

                      Rubbered up. Very, very rubbered up.

                        That makes sense the more I think about it. Usually in the slick there are a number of guys that can make other lines work. But in the rubber, that's where you have to be.

                          From the post race interviews, It sounds like there was a bunch of loose stuff on the center to high lines. After the first yellow, it wasn't possible to run high. After everyone moved low, I'm sure it rubbered up.

                            In the same interviews the drivers said it was not rubbered up. What do they know though.
