That was such an awesome race! I remember that day

[@Pwg1985]

I remember watching this race live. Great win. This is what I watched since The coronavirus has stopped every thing.

That Halloween/Michael Myers segment was awesome. I remember seeing it when it first aired

Can you post the 2006 Samsung 500?

[@braedonshelton2305]

Jimmy Spencer had rotten luck in 2003. The 7 car had speed, but blew engines every week, it seemed. He ran a lot in the top ten. But always had an issue. The spring Bristol race of 2003, he led over 100 laps. What could have been, if he didn’t punch Kurt Busch. Sirius may have stayed a sponsor for 2004. Bummer. Also, who would have thought that in 2021, Kurt Busch is well liked. He has changed a lot.

[@BengtsonJ]

They have butchered this Race Track. I loved this OLD configuration, new one doesn’t have the same feel sadly!

[@Diecastbuffet]

Same with Charlotte

[@RooneyMac]

Changing the backstretch dogleg banking was one thing. Moving the flagstand to the exit of turn 2 only makes sense for the sake of getting the setting sun off the fans in the stands... But there's an even easier solution to that, which was already installed nearly two decades ago: LIGHTS

Stands all the way around
