Just spitballing here, but maybe the car didn’t pass pre race tech and they couldn’t fix whatever the issue was at the track. That would be the most logical explanation to me.

7th to 3rd in 60 laps is not very impressive on any stage.
Overton averaged one car passed per 15 laps.
So, out of 24 cars only 1 car had a good night with passing.
Page (1st-1st)
Owens (2nd-2nd)
Overton (7th-3rd)
Madden (5th-4th)
Davenport (4th-5th)
McDowell (3rd-6th)
Moran (6th-7th)
O’Neal 5 (10th-8th)
Marlar ***(21st-9th)***
McCreadie (12th-10th)
McIntosh (8th-11th)
Richards (15th-12th)
Buckingham (11th-13th)
Hedgec*ck (13th-14th)
Moyer Jr ***(9th-15th)***
O’Neal 71 (16th-16th)
Erb (20th-17th)
Scott 2s (18th-18th)
Pearson Jr (23rd-19th)
Bronson (17th-20th)
Payne (22nd-21st)
Horton (19th-22nd)

Like I said, not much movement tonight.

Logical explanation
Either something was wrong with the car, or he tweaked something again. I don’t care who says he is fine, he walks like crap. It’s a gentle hobble.
Or we could go with whatever SS and Livewire say. Totally logical I’m sure.Up in the air who my next “favorite†driver is. Really losing hope on Bloomer getting anywhere back to “normalâ€.

We enjoyed some things about our first trip to Dixie last night, but I mostly just care about the racing. I’d been told that it’s pretty much like most tracks in the Deep South, and that unfortunately turned out to be true. I’ll give any track at least one try, but we probably won’t be making a second trip to Dixie. My overall take was, it’s probably been just the way it is for a long, long time and they still draw a good crowd (it was packed last night) so they don’t feel the need to make any changes. The location is fantastic — easy access from 75 and just a few minutes from Atlanta — but it looks like it’s being crowded out by all the growth around it. This track I’m sure once was considered to be out in the sticks, but it sure isn’t anymore. That’s usually a sign that it won’t be around much longer.

The track was fine. Few cars dropped out and the fast ones started up front. No cautions, so there wasn't chances for guys to catch up or have double file restarts. The groove was actually pretty wide.Modern Day Spec Wedge Racing
