Shiny, you get us excited just reading your updates. THANK YOU for filling us in. Sounded like a great feature race!

(not a nice word)(not a nice word)(not a nice word)(not a nice word), that one caution killed Overton. I think he wins if that doesn’t happen.

I-80 delivers again.

Really is a great track. Racy and wide. It's a 3/8ths, correct?

Not sure how lapped traffic would've played out for Overton but certainly looked like he wasn't getting touched early. He just had no momentum off the restart. This is the first time I've seen Overton race since he's been such a big deal, I can't remember when he was last at I-80 but it was quite a while ago, so I'm glad I got to see him get a podium. Not sure I'll be able to attend tomorrow but I hope it's a great show.

He made the SDN show once, back in 2014, and finished 7th. Not sure if he’s been there otherwise, before this weekend. He’s seeing a lot of these tracks — like Fairbury earlier this week — not for the first time, but for one of the few times and for the first time in years. He has a lot less experience nationally than many of these guys he’s racing against. That makes his season even more impressive.

Even though I don't really understand how the point system is all tallied , at the end of the day it seems like it works pretty good looking at that top 18 after 2 nights of racing.

4/10ths...

[zooker25]

That's the slickest I've seen I-80. I heard they take your best finish from each night to determine your start for Saturday.

[zooker25]

That's how Pierce made it in the feature!

[IL LM Fan]

That's how Pierce made it in the feature!

He didn't make the Feature Thursday, finished 13th Friday, and is in?
