4th biggest loser for the week. Down to 59th.

 

Geesus.

Kurt Busch was 7th on the restart, finishes 25th. Logano runs great all day then hits the wall, 31th.

Jr ends up my best finisher with a 14th, he sucked shit all day and the team never got the car right. He sits 23rd in points. I know its still early but they are obviously a bit off track there.

I get that.

And as the season goes on you will use up your 5 repeat picks. It will change things up.

 

This would have been a good week to pick Stenhouse, Suarez or Jones.

beauty of only being able to use drivers so many times is it should eve itself out when guys are having to throw Danica in as a pick cause they are out of real ones.

They need to quit it with the fines and just starting DQ'ing guys if they fail post race tech, like the short tracks do.

I think there are too many fucking rules in NASCAR...they might as well just turn it into a series like the old IROC....just gives the teams identical cars for fucks sake.

Anyone know where I could find a Cup or Truck Series rule book?  One rule book I follow is 18 pages total, including the frame measurement page and body spec page.

After the penalties I'm the 5th biggest loser and get back 7 spots. 52 on the list.

FONTANA, Calif. -- Dale Earnhardt Jr. has had talks to have actual talks about remaining at Hendrick Motorsports beyond this Monster Energy Cup Series season.

Earnhardt, whose contract ends after 2017, had put contract negotiations on hold after suffering a concussion that kept him out of the car for the final 18 races of 2016.

In February, Earnhardt had said he wanted to take some time, possibly a couple of months, to see how he felt before resuming negotiations. The 2016 concussion was his fourth known concussion in his career.

Earnhardt joined Hendrick Motorsports in 2008. After four points races, he is 23rd in the standings but says he is happy with his health and wants to continue to race.

"It's only been a few races, but I feel really good and we have had some discussions about planning to get together," Earnhardt said. "It's not something that I put on the shelf, for sure. We're getting closer and closer.

Having felt fine over the first five weeks of racing, Earnhardt says he has talked with Rick Hendrick about sitting down and discussing his future. He is confident that the changes in the headrest to his car, which limits his head movement, will help if he has another hard crash.

"I've done some things that I really think have gave me a lot of confidence in the car and in my ability to continue to race," Earnhardt said. "I'm not in any hurry to sit down and have those discussions, but we have been chit-chatting a little bit about that we need to go ahead and start heading in that direction."

Earnhardt isn't the only Hendrick driver without a contract for 2018. Seven-time Cup champion Jimmie Johnson also hasn't signed an extension that he plans to finalize eventually.

"We are always talking and working on the details," said Johnson, who has spent his entire career at Hendrick. "We don't have anything ready yet, but I'm sure we will announce before long. As you can tell, I'm not overly concerned.

"I feel very confident we will get something put together with Lowe's as our primary sponsor. Hendrick is my home, so I'm not worried about where that stuff will actually be executed and what point in the season it will be executed, but I know it will happen soon."

Earnhardt said before the start of the Cup season that he would retire if he won the championship.
