Practice and qualifying on Saturday, then they lock up the cars till Sunday.
Kinda different, but we'll see if it has any effect.

Correction, 2nd win for the Camaro, dip shit in the #3 won the first, and he was in a Camaro.
And that was in the opener at Daytona.

It was a fluke, they kept hoping for him to win more, and he just went back into his old pattern of taking himself out, or taking someone else with him, and they'd both end up out of the race. The only reason he has that ride is because he's Childress's grandson, that kid can't drive worth a shit.

Well THIS will be interesting to watch unfold...

Wonder if NASCAR will make him go through the same "Road to Recovery" program they put the drivers through? LOL. That would be ironically hysterical...

If he doesn't the fans should get a sheet going to insist on it.
And just do a "if it's good enough for the drivers, it should be good enough for you" "Lead be example!!"

Per NASCAR.com ... Brian France is taking an indefinite leave of absence. Older brother - Jim France - will assume interim leadership duties.
