COT + Resurfacing = Bust at the Bullring?
posted in Race Recap |Hope “Thunderbolt” Mizzell has first place all to herself this week, putting all 3 drivers in the top 5. The usual suspects round out the top 5, and the battle for the last playoff spots heats up! Will “The Sleeper” McNelis holds on to 1st, but “NoBadGas” Altizer, “I’m Watching You” Hiner, and “Colesy” Cole are hot on his heels.
The drivers love the new surface, the fans love the old cars. They still manage to pack 160,000 people into the loudest couple of acres in Tennessee. Check out all the action at NASCAR.com
