Well race number two of the season and race number two of the season that I missed. Sorry to disappoint y'all. But it looks like a rough race for Chase Elliott, so maybe it was for the best. Starting at lap number three when Martin Truex Jr who hit Austin Dillon who collected several drivers including Chase Elliott. Of what it looks like, every time he raced towards the top ten, he'd get hit again. Sounds like an exciting race. Daniel Suerez won the Atlanta race. I'm including a link with the final results. Hopefully it shares the play by play as well on the side of the screen. I am sorry it's not very descriptive post about the race.

We've mentioned a couple of historically famous non-NASCAR drivers recently, so I thought I'd share a quote from another that I heard last night. Juan Manuel Fangio dominated the early years of F1, winning the World Drivers' Championship five times in the first decade. Here's his quote: "Driving fast on the track does not scare me. What scares me is when I drive on the highway I get passed by some idiot who thinks he is Fangio."

We had grandkids for the weekend so I didn't see any of it but caught some highlights. In fact, I didn't even see dirt bikes. I do have them recorded and have started to watch one race at a time. They have 8 races. 4 heat races, 2 last chance qualifiers and 2 main events. They use 250cc and 450cc motorcycles.
