another note here: due to multiple sponsor wraps, NASCAR checks the cars post race instead of pre-race

JGR Reviewing the L3 Violations assessed to the 11/18 over 4+ hours ago following Pocono; nothing definitive yet of whether they'll actually appeal the violations
JGR will not appeal the DNQ of Hamlin/Kyle Busch that broke after the Pocono race yesterday......
CWTS Playoffs Media Day will be featured tonight on Fox Sports and NASCAR Race Hub; temporarily delaying the traditional Radioactive segment and any continued fallout over Pocono;
also, it appears Brandonbilt Motorsports (XFINITY/68) will rotate drivers for the balance of 2022; Brown is running for the 47 Mike Harmon team this week based off his past win at Talladega; Austin Dillon is in Brown's 68

L2 Penalty assessed to Front Row Motorsports/34/McDowell as a further fallout from Pocono; Crew Chief Blake Harris suspended 4 races team docked 100 owner/driver points and should the 34 win before Daytona they will be docked 10 playoff points; the 11/18 cars have been released from the R& D Center and both cars go back into the rotation; FRM has elected to appeal the penalty or is in the process to appeal the penalty;
this is a similiar penalty assessed to RFK after Atlanta; that team (#6) has since rebounded to 28th

21st in points without the penalties assessed yesterday..... what it is is teams are in more of a panic mode as the next 5 weeks progress, it's not just the 6/34/11/18/42/43 who have been penalized.... all NASCAR has done is level the field as much as they can with this new car....
that doesn't include the 45 and the that G-load hit Kurt took post Qualifying @ Pocono, fans forget this car hasn't been raced, never mind tested on some of these tracks.... imo, the Trucks and XFINITY need to have this upgraded especially after those hits you saw Saturday with the 27-Jeb Burton barrel rolling across Pocono's start/finish line
Kurt Busch medical update: not cleared as of Wednesday.... Ty Gibbs to do double duty once again, this time with three days notice instead of 3 hours notice

sucks for kurt, this could speed up his retirement by quite a bit, but its good that ty gibbs is getting some cup experience early on. between him and zane smith earlier this year, both showed potential to run well in cup
Kurt has also doubled the past few years as the in house CWTS Driver Analyst at the track for FOX (Similiar to Todd Bodine before his run to 800 career starts this year)

FOX has done quite well with that driver analyst role, NBC/USA not so much and welcome to this thread....

Truck Series now seeking replacement title sponsor after Camping World/Gander Outdoors relinquishes title sponsorship after 14 seasons; Marcus Lemonis states reallocation toward his company's future.... says NASCAR has a new title sponsor in mind in relation to CW/GO leaving after 14 seasons..... new title sponsor for Trucks to be announced "soon"
Craftsman is the leading possibility (1995-2008), but will wait for "OFFICIAL announcement"

then there's always the weekly DJD/DBC;
