NASCAR at New Hampshire

NASCAR heads to New England to begin the second half of the season at the New Hampshire Motor Speedway.   .

Kyle Busch won in an interesting Kentucky race (for once) with the new package for win #2 of the season and closing in on a potential Chase berth. Brad Keselowski and Joey Logano won last year's pair of races for Team Penske in the Cup side.

The Xfinity Series is also at NHMS for the Saturday race. Brad K also won the Xfinity race one year ago and just won last week in Kentucky to outdeal Erik Jones and Kyle Busch.

In Practice, Bowyer was leaving his garage, and Gordon back out of his at the wrong time and rear ended Jeff XD

That's the 2nd straight week we've had a incident in the garage

Denny Hamlin wins with 0 clean passes.

That Xfinity race was pretty depressing lol.

Was it really that bad?

It had okay spots...The cup drivers dominated all day though.

Well, I don't watch the Grease Fire Series anymore, so I figured I'd ask.

Denny Hamlin: Asshat status confirmed.

Just watched the post race press conference. The arrogance he's oozing is sickening.

Looks like the Denny Hamlin of old is back and unsurprisingly, just as arrogant as ever. I'm surprised Kyle wasn't as mad considering he got ran over by Denny not once but twice. Of course, I can't wait to see what happens in the cup race.

Jimmie, quit your bitching.

That's a wildfire.

That guy fell and triggered the extinguisher XD

Fixed :p

Let's just sit back and admire Kyle Busch's flawless points racing technique for a few minutes.

Kylewinslol.

I think they changed the dates of the Xfinity Series races to Sundays.

This season blows. 

Kyle Busch, no chill.

Honestly a lot of 2015 has sucked. F1, NASCAR. Indycar has been the better of the 3.

Yep! A decent race today. Just wasn't great either IMO. So a score of 5.0/10.

I'm probably the only one who doesn't care if Kyle won.

Then again I've been feeling apathetic as of late.

Still want to see him win the championship just to show how much of a joke it's become, even though Nascar will probably roll with it because "MUH COMEBACK STORY".

Yawner race.

Kyle about to break this championship.

My review of the New Hampshire 301:



What a snoozefest of a race.

There really isn't much to talk about concerning this race, because there wasn't much that happened. The same guys stayed up front pretty much all day, and there were some decent battles here and there, but other than the restarts, this race sucked ass. There's a good reason I used to give New Hampshire the nickname "the Crap Track", and today's race showed why.

Looks like the injuries haven't taken anything off of Kyle Busch, winning his third race in the last four. Pretty impressive. At the rate he closing on 30th, it's not a matter of if he makes the top 30, but when.

The other thing that caught my attention was Jimmie Johnson absolutely sucked today. It's been a long time since we've seen a subpar finish from that 48 team due to a lack of performance, and I couldn't have been happier. Too bad this race still sucked.

My rating for the New Hampshire 301:

There were a few decent spots in this race, but yeah, this race was definitely forgettable. This race gets a 2.5/10. Of course, that's just par for the course this season.

Next week, we head to the Brickyard.

So is it safe to say it'll have roughly the same rating as today's race? lol

Considering its the Brickyard, it won't come to a surprise.

You're not the only one.

Here in Nashville, the ESPYs got a higher rating than this race did.
