[Sgt Slaughter]

Here is the broadcast schedule for this weekend:

Also, please refrain from doing whatever happened in the Indianapolis thread. It was very annoying last week trying to talk about the race and having 5 people determine whether NASCAR fixes races because of one mess up.

Trucks should put on a good show

 

[The Captain]

Let's hope the finish is as exciting this time as it was 8 (?) weeks ago.

Looking forward to both the Truck and Nationwide races this week. As for the Cup race, just praying that it can deliver some good quality racing action that will leave everyone happy.

Paul Menard is hard into the wall. The team is saying that something broke.

 

[Mike24]

On the car or Menard? Hopefully Paul is okay.

In other news this weekend...

Denny Hamlin's Girlfriend Jordan Fish Expecting Couple's First Child

There will be a new addition to the Denny Hamlin household.

Hamlin announced Friday at Pocono Raceway that he and girlfriend Jordan Fish are expecting the couple's first child in January.

"I'm excited, it's been a long time coming," said Hamlin, 31. "It's going to be exciting to be a dad."

When asked if he was ready to be a first-time father, the Joe Gibbs Racing driver laughed, but did say he'll rely on his parents for advice.

Hamlin has fond memories of his father and said he would like to be "half of what my dad was."

"My family has done a lot for me to get to this point, obviously, with all the sacrifices and all that they've gone through," Hamlin said. "My dad tells me all the time that some of the best times he had was just carrying me around in a pickup truck every day, taking me to work and things like that.

"It's going to be a great experience. I'm really excited about it and to be part of it. From my parents to have grandkids – it's all going to be good."

Hamlin said the couple has no immediate plans to get married.

I could've been at Pocono for the Trucks & ARCA race today, but no one else wanted to go. 20 bucks for grandstand tickets, you can't beat that.

When Jeff Burton retires it'd be awesome to see him become a broadcaster!

Agreed. Enjoyed the insight and analysis he brought to the truck booth just now.
