Another good race tonight. Just knew my man Blaney had this one. Scary wreck though, they had to cut Almirola out of his car and air lift him to the hospital. Awake and alert though so should survive. Always hated the wrecks, wrecking ain't racing. Truex won.

That almirola shot was brutal. At the same time it's amazing how far technology has came. The guys/and girl take 180mph licks into a wall and 99% of the time walk away from it. That safer barrier has been a godsend. Been a Daniel Suarez fan kinda lately and my up and coming favorite chase Elliot didn't have the best of nights. Makes me feel old watching bill as a kid and now his son taking over for the driver I rooted for since I was 7(born in 88 lol) will post pics in a few weeks when I go to mis up Here in June for you //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif taking mine and the wife's dad for fathers day

New addition to the graveyard. Its Danica Patrick's car from the Kansas race that was involved in the fiery crash that injured Arid Almirola.

"I don’t know why I want them or even why we go get them. When JR Motorsports first started with Pro Cup and Late Model, we’d put so much money into building those cars. When we’d tear them up, I couldn’t see throwing them away or scrapping them so we’d stick them in the woods. So if we have 80 cars now, the first 30 or 40 are JR Motorsports or Late Models or something related to me or my company and we just kept plugging them in there."

Today is the biggest day in racing. Just a few laps left of the Monaco Grand Prix, the Indy 500 at 12, then the Coca Cola 600 at 6.
