·      Joey Logano has already locked himself into the Championship 4, but he made headlines at Texas by the way he raced fellow Playoff driver Aric Almirola, who voiced his displeasure afterwards. We’ll hear Almirola’s comments and discuss.

 

·      We’ll also discuss NASCAR mistakenly sending Jimmie Johnson to the rear prior to the start of the race. We’ll have reaction from NASCAR EVP Steve O’Donnell and discuss how NASCAR can avoid these errors in the future.

 

·      Dave Burns spoke to crew chief Alan Gustafson about Chase Elliott’s 6th-place run at Texas and a likely must-win situation next weekend at Phoenix.
