    Fires, Flips, & A Massive Upset Winner: Daytona Summer Race Delivers for NASCAR (Ep. 94)

    NASCAR put on a SHOW at Daytona that included flips, fires, and Harrison Burton (No, seriously HARRISON BURTON) crossing the finish line first and punching his ticket to the playoffs. Your favorite co-hosts are here to brake down all the action that led to just six cars finishing on the lead lap including Michael McDowell and Josh Berry flipping, Daniel Suarez catching fire, and Brad Keselowski even got a rare restart penalty. Plus, Corey Lajoie causes one wreck and almost does his best Kevin LePage impression coming off of pit lane. We can finally exhale, as this race had a lot of action that kept us on the edge of our seat! Be a friend, tell a friend.

    Dillon Wrecks Leader to Win, Big Playoff Implications + Kyle Busch Drives With Scissors? (Ep 93)

    Well, we anticipated typing a lot of different names as the winner from NASCAR's trip to the historic short track at Richmond, but Austin Dillon was simply not on our list. Nevertheless, the driver of the 3 car did his best Leroy Jenkins impression entering turn three to spin Joey Logano, right rear hook Denny Hamlin, and put himself in victory lane, making Pop Pop (Richard Childress) proud. Through frustration and a lot of choice words, your favorite co-hosts brake down all of the action from an (almost) caution-less race including the soft tire options, the 99 team gambling and winning on strategy, and what Austin Dillon's dive bomb means for the rest of the playoff picture. Plus, Bob stands on business after Martin Truex Jr. becomes the most recent victim of a Toyota engine blowing up, while Adam welcomes Kyle Busch to the "tape too tight" club. We have a feeling the boys at RCR are going to be the only people with a nice word to say about this one. Be a friend, tell a friend. Like, comment, and subscribe.

    Larson Bricked Up at Indy, Toyota’s Achilles Heel & F1 Makes Us Laugh (Ep 92)

    Well the good news is NASCAR returned to Indy and is FINALLY running the Oval again. The bad news is Kyle Busch hit the wall so hard with 3 to go he sent the remainder of the race to the USA Network, much to the chagrin of NASCAR and Law and Order fans alike. Nevertheless, Kyle Larson is your winner, as he kisses the bricks and gives us hope he’ll take another crack at the Memorial Day double. From the strategy based race on NBC, to the calamity that ensued on the USA Network, the fellas give you their raw reactions to all the action including Brad dipping out of the overtime restart, the caution that ended the race, and Bob shocks Adam by telling him what ensued at the end of the F1 race today. This race hurt us, but two weeks without NASCAR is going to hurt us way more!
