I feel Leah lowered her standards to buddy up with Tony. And yeh yeh I know Tony this Tony that and yes he did have a good Nascar career. But and a big BUTT why did Leah buddy up with Tony? Only thing I can see is its for Tony's career relationships and of course his racing winnings but he never was a NHRA guy????? And never ever a MOPAR guy so yeh whatever I just dont see the relationship lasting.
Love is blind. Maybe she had a crush on him growing up. She may be trying to better her career or it could be real

When many of the problems that team is having lately are not driver related perhaps it's time to review the team performance. Broken throttle cable. Copper head gasket leaking oil. Car breaking in half. Myriad other problems not related to driver or Tony Stewart.

Really sucked Hagan had a killer .3 light but Height had a .5 which most drivers are in the .7 range so he should have won

No. Second is worth significantly more points toward the championship than a first round loss. The pros race for points and that season championship is the number one goal. If they took second in every event, that would win the championship. Do you know how much that paycheck is 🤑. Do you know what the endorsement value of running that number 1 on the car next year is 🤯.

Not enough.
And not by a long shot.

Leah seems like a cool lady, and tough one to.

Whatever happens in her racing career, I just hope she stays healthy, and happy for a long time!
That car snapping in half would have been a hell of a ride.

john force should have lost to Hagan then gets lucky and wins 2nd round

Hagan had a right to be mad on what john did in staging. It is not a rule but you are not suppose to light both bulbs 1st. I was racing last weekend and pre staged and waiting for the other guy. He came in and pre staged, staged and as I'm rolling in deep staged. Now what he did was fine but I wasn't expecting the deep stage. I like to go in 1st and could have staged but didn't. He did beat me and he went to the final. I didn't like what he did in the final he turned on both light before the other driver pre staged then he went deep again. I do know if I race him again and I'm at the starting line before him, I'm going all in.

The real question is did you win the race? 😎

Yeah some people do not get the concept of the courtesy stage...I mean at test and tune or casual track events plenty of people do not know about it, but at any racing event It is certainly assumed.

We watched the coverage on Fox yesterday, a rare Sunday at home and it was fun for sure.

Was funny seeing the John Force/Hagan stand off. Apparently he told him "I'm John f'in Force and I'll do what ever the hell I want!" Hagan looked like he was going to kill someone!

Crazy that Leah won due to the other driver getting heat exhaustion at the starting line in his car and he didn't race - wow!
