The Finals will go down as the battle of the giants (the team owners). No doubt that all stops will be pulled.

Erik Jones is on a roll isn't he? Wasn't so long ago he had to bring his hot Mom to an interview, now he is as polished as any of them.
Place looked packed. Good race as the strategies worked out. It was the first race in a long time that went green to the checkers.

Truex Jr's tire was the one thing that kept the finish from being REALLY exciting.

Otherwise, the 'Track Too Tough To Tame' was reduced to looking like the standard issue 1.5 mile race. 8 cars on lead lap, a handful of lead changes among a handful of the usual suspects........

We get, we get it. For many years, maybe more, we've known what kind of auto-racing show that NASCAR produced to make their fortune. More show than racing....

eThus the name,..."Follies". YOU would make a good OP..
BTW how 'bout that KYLE, coming in second just to let his team-mate enjoy some limelight....

Race stats speak for themselves Cloud. Fewest cars on lead lap since 1998. Before the cars became engineering marvels Darlington featured some often decent racing. Every finish can't be Craven/Kurt Busch's, but Truex doesn't cut a tire I think that finish would have saved the race from the debacle it was. But that's me....

So, how was Truex' cut tire different than any of the other cut tires? And, do you mean that Truex could've upped the quality of the show high enough to make the difference between thumbs up/thumbs down?

OK, so I'm nostalgic, but with Hamlin chugging through the field and Truex Jr nursing worn tires, I thought I was gonna be treated to another door bangin' 2 lap drag race to the finish, like Ricky Craven/Kurt Busch.Pretty sure that Hamlin would have closed on the 78 before the checkers, and equally certain the 78 would have hung it all out for the win, worn tires or not. Stupid flat tire........
Have to love the effort of any driver who makes a mistake, and guts it out to get back to where he was before.
