Four races last weekend and zero wins. And I had a shot at a win in the Cup race until a freaking ROOKIE wins? Ugh, its been one of those weeks. Or years. Or decades.
Things have not been all that fun for ol’ Uncle Max (not that things have been a barrel of laughs for anyone lately) but I *do* have some good news—well for me that is. I get to take my vacation next week! Now, it won’t be anything like a normal vacation—heck, I’d have sold it back to my employer if they’d have offered it. But thankfully I have a plan in place. I won’t have much contact with the outside world next week, but I think it’ll be fun to disconnect from the planet all by myself for awhile.
Saturday Afternoon XFINITY SERIES My Bariatric Solutions 300 (2 wins) Chase Briscoe—I do NOT want to see what that trophy looks like.
Saturday Evening TRUCK SERIES Vankor 250 (1 win) Kyle Busch—back to basics.
Sunday CUP SERIES O’Reilly 500. LAST YEAR’S WINNER (4 wins) Denny Hamlin. FAVORITE: (2 win) Kevin Harvick—sticking with what works (when there isn’t an upset) NEXT FAVORITE: (1 win) Martin Truex Jr.—about time for a strong Truex run. DARK HORSE: (0 wins) Alex Bowman—just because.
