I only caught the last 20 something laps, but he did a great job. Absolutely dominated the race, leading something like 180+ of the 205 laps. The three restarts I saw were excellent. He blew them away the first one. On the second, Johnny Sauter actually got a little ahead of him the first lap after the green and Kyle really, really hauled it into turn 1 to retake the lead. Sauter never got close again. It was clear the announcing crew was both surprised and impressed with that turn 1 dive.

In the post-race interview, Logano admitted that he expected Kyle to do one thing on the restart and he did something different. The rookie fools the Cup vet. If this keeps up, I may have to watch the last few laps of whatever race Kyle is in.

From the looks of things there were more people at the Rock for a Truck Race than at Bristol for a Cup race

kyle larson can drive the wheels off of anything they put him in/ now they say he's driving a truck at eldora (pushin off usac racers i suppose, har har) nope, just kidding, a nasccar dirt truck that is, as long as it has a wing on top of course (hey that would be cool) dirt trucks with wings on top, the hill-billies'd go bonkers!

Despain had a solution last night on WT. Put dirt back on Bristol and use the same format that they will use at Eldora for the Trucks for the Cup and Nationwide race.

And I agree having those three back would be a great start!

They have 8-9 different cars going on at any time anyway. I don't know why all the teams couldnt sport a LM and do Bristol once dirt once pavement, Eldora although I don't think it has enough seating but that could be cured.

and bring back the second race at DARLINGTON!
