Madden vs Overton SoNats showdown could be epic

[B_K]

I-75 is a wildcard. I look for Hedgeco ck to be strong there.

Shameless pat on the back.

Shameless pat on the back.

Was just nice to get another winner on the tour but no doubt Hedgeco#$ was the best last night. He also mentioned besides liking 1-75 he does well at 411. ...........

Did you hear Madden after the race thank Hedco#$ for help with tire choice? It was Madden's first time on the reconfigured track..... He also apologized for hitting Overton when he had to take evasive action to avoid a lapped car that spun out in front of him in traffic? Overton said no biggie it was a racing thing and he'd have done the same and no way Hedge could have known I was there.

Hedgeco#$ seems like a good guy. Nice to see him win. ........

Few days back the DoD writers posited that the So Nats group of drivers this yr may very well be better than the SN group. Not sure I'd disagree and have been impressed by the racing seeing these drivers in a series format. It's early but it seems the southern guys are more respectful and less reckless than the SN guys as a group. 4 races in and no drama at all.

Maybe 3 of the first 4 So Nats races being on big tracks and the SN guys have been racing on bullrings has something to do with shaping my opinion. We'll see as the series progresses.

Hedgecoc k is simply put (not a nice word)(not a nice word)(not a nice word)(not a nice word) good. Over the last couple of years he’s really progressed. He’s really good at 411, but generally lights out at I-75. Track record holder at North Georgia as well. Seems like a good dude from what I’ve seen. There’s a national and a strong regional team in his area that could substantially upgrade behind the wheel with him IMO.

Ray has a good group of guys this year for sure. Bailes will be strong on the upcoming South Georgia swing I suspect. I’ll go he wins at Cochran. Don’t see the 76 getting beat at Needmore or Screven unless it’s Madden though. Page will win Senoia.

As good as Big Sexy is I think Madden will win over the two weeks worth of events

I agree with you even though I'm rooting for Overton. As good as Overton is I think Madden is simply a more mature vet and that will play out over a large sample size giving him the points win......... For instance, IMO Overton saw that trouble Hedco#$ had right in front of him and didn't anticipate that Hedge would probably have to take evasive action and come down on him.

Instead he never lifted and allowed Hedgeco#$ to come down and hit him causing right front damage. After the ensuing restart Madden passed him for 2nd. ........ That wasn't the time to chance making a pass. I doubt Madden would have made that mistake.

It's a fun tour this year for sure, I've done 3 of the first 4 with them all being around the house. I still think it comes down to the last race at Tazewell between Overton & Madden. As for Hedge(not a nice word)(not a nice word)(not a nice word)(not a nice word) being an upgraded driver, YES. Unfortunately, I think if he did that it would be a downgrade in equipment....
