Kyle Larson signs an extension with Hendrick Motorsports through 2023 https://nascar.nbcsports.com/2021/07/14/kyle-larson-signs-extension-with-hendrick-motorsports-through-2023/. Hendrick Motorsports is also working on extensions with Chase Elliot and William Byron.

JR Motorsports apparently Is still interested in running in the Cup series https://nascar.nbcsports.com/2021/07/13/dale-jr-kelley-earnhardt-miller-motorsports-continuing-conversations-on-possible-cup-effort/ there's a rumor that Dale Jr and his sister Kelley will buy into Richard Childress Racing either partially or outright takeover. Another rumor is Kevin Harvick is interested in buying JTG's portion of JTG Daugherty Racing team. I don't know if this one holds much water, he ran a Trucks and Xfinity teams and folded them because it was too much to handle while also driving and raising a family.

If you want to see some of the behind the scenes stuff at the SRX races Hailie Deegans YouTube channel has a few videos https://m.youtube.com/channel/UC61Cf_xnxEHa-8Dvas3pQHg Paul Tracy doesn't come off too well in the Slinger Speedway one, talk about classless. He's lucky none of the other racers were there to hear what he called Hailie, Tony probably would knocked him on his butt.

In the final Atlanta race at the track's current configuration Kurt Busch with help from his teammate Ross Chastain edged out his younger brother Kyle Busch for the win. In typical Kryle fashion in his post race interview he whined about losing instead of congratulating his brother. They must have had one helluva contentious relationship growing up. Early on it looked like it was going to be a JGR stomping with all four JGR Toyota's looking strongest in the field. Probably would have been Martin Truex jr's day if not for failing pre race inspection twice and being forced to start last. He arguably passed the most cars having to drive through the field a few times due to bad pit stops. Top 10 1 Kurt Busch 2 Kyle Busch 3 Martin Truex jr 4 Alex Bowman 5 Ryan Blaney 6 Tyler Reddick 7 Chase Elliot 8 Christopher Bell 9 Matt Dibenedetto 10 Brad Keselowski Kyle Busch won his 5th and final Xfinity race at Atlanta this season. Hopefully he'll stick to his word and retire from the series since he's won over 100 Busch/Nationwide/Xfinity races as he promised. He's the reason Nascar limits how many starts Cup series driver's can make in the lower tier series. Instead of limiting cup series driver's they should make them run in struggling team's car's to give them some help against the juggernaut teams like JGR or Jr motorsports. The next time you see Atlanta motor speedway on tv it will look different. Instead of just repaving the track they are going to redo the banking as well https://nascar.nbcsports.com/2021/07/06/atlanta-motor-speedway-repave-reprofiling-2022-nascar-cup-series/.

I remember him in a lot of shows from the 80's; Chips, Knight Rider, Air Wolf, Simon & Simon, Buck Rogers etc... He was also in Conan the Barbarian, played Arnold's Conan's father. He was one of the better 'bad guy' actors.

I did NOT know that!!

Jimmy and him were the same age when they died! 88!!

I thought he had already passed for some reason.......
