Yes, please, kindly post back the links .. Thanksss

Well my driver stayed in front, led laps and helped his Team-mate get the win !!!! coming in 2nd ... enjoyed that race to the max !!! ... was really hoping that Gordon would have either win or finish in the top 5 .. His last year and he's just not having luck ... same thing happened to him at the Daytona 500 ... on the last lap, he was involved in wreck !!!

but that rookie - Ryan Blaney .. did an awesome job staying in front but this is where experience got the better of him and Hamlin wanted that win and made the move before he did ....

Friday night Sprint Cup racing. Not a bad way to spend an early Friday night.

Never could figure out why they could broadcast the non points races on FSR which is effectively FS1 outside of the U.S. Oh well.

Came to a fuel milage run, though through various parts of the race it looked like Martin Truex Jr. was going to eventually win.

Thus ended the 1,261.887 Weekend
3rd win @ Monaco - Nico Rosberg
2nd win @ Indianapolis - Juan Pablo Montoya
1st win @ Charlotte - Carl Edwards

NASCAR will introduce a new aero package for next month’s NASCAR Sprint Cup race at Kentucky Speedway, series officials announced Tuesday.

The move comes after concerns raised by drivers about the racing this season and ability to pass. This also comes a little more than a month after a NASCAR official suggested next year’s rules package could be the same as this season’s package.

NASCAR will reduce downforce on cars by cutting the rear spoiler and making other changes. The spoiler has been reduced to 3.5 inches. There will be a 25-inch wider splitter extension. The splitter will have 1 3/4 inch less overhang. The tires will have more grip.

“We care committed to putting on the best racing on the track,” said Steve O’Donnell, NASCAR executive vice president and chief operation officer. “The work won’t stop with this announcement.”

O’Donnell said additional changes could be made for the Kentucky race.

The rules are intended to improve passing. Lead changes have declined in 12 of the first 15 races this season compared to races at those tracks last year. Only Texas (11 more lead changes this year compared to last), Atlanta (seven more) and Bristol (one more) have seen an increase in the number of lead changes compared to last year.

To accommodate teams, NASCAR will give teams a four-hour practice session July 8. Cup teams will not return to the track until July 10 (Xfinity and Camping World Truck teams will be on the track July 9). The Cup series races July 11 at Kentucky on NBCSN.

The rule change – for now – is only Kentucky Speedway, although they could be used again if things go well.

Dale Earnhardt Jr. announced on twitter that he and girlfriend Amy Reimann are engaged. No date or details mentioned.

While vacationing in Germany learning about his ancestors during the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series off-week, Dale Earnhardt Jr. proposed to long-time girlfriend Amy Reimann. And she said "yes."

The four-time NASCAR Sprint Cup Series champion, Jeff Gordon, unveiled his rainbow scheme on sponsor Axalta's Twitter handle and the Tuesday edition of "CBS This Morning," driving down West 57th Street in Manhattan. Gordon will drive the car in the Irwin Tools Night Race at Bristol Motor Speedway (August 22, 7:30 p.m. ET, NBC Sports Network, PRN, SiriusXM).

"It's such an iconic paint scheme," Gordon said Tuesday morning. He went on to say that the fans' support of the brightly colored scheme made it possible for the No. 24 team to roll it out again.

Running his final full-time season in NASCAR's premier series, Gordon sits 11th in the standings and would make the Chase for the NASCAR Sprint Cup based on points, but he continues to seek his first win of the season to all but lock his place in NASCAR's playoffs as he attempts to win his fifth title.

Gordon drove the rainbow Chevrolet from his very first start in 1992 through the 2000 season. Take a look at his success with the car by the numbers.

1: Rookie of the Year trophy

1: All-Star Race victory

3: Cup Series championships

17: Different tracks where Gordon earned at least one win in the rainbow scheme

33: Pole positions earned

52: Trips to Victory Lane

129: Top-five finishes

166: Top-10s recorded

10,708: Total laps led

1,000,000: Dollars earned for winning the Daytona 500, Charlotte 600 and Southern 500 in 1997.

With the scheme revealed, we’re less than two months until the #Rainbow24 returns to the track one final time.



The last time the #Rainbow24 scheme was used, the 2004 NEXTEL All Star Challenge

Unfortunately this was how it ended the night

Here's to Bristol ending in Victory Lane

Good news, Daytona coming up.
Bad news, the track is a little damp to say the least.
