Show notes:
Recap the Folds of Honor QuikTrip 500 @ Atlanta Motor Speedway:
- Kevin Harvick Dominates Xfinity and Cup Series races
- All veterans up front
- Have to go back to Kyle Larson in ninth before you start to find the younguns.
- Austin Dillon comes home with a 14th-place finish after winning the 500
- Darrell Wallace Jr. finishes a disappointing 32nd
- Jimmie Johnson spins on his own again.
- Finishes 27th
- What is the deal with Jimmie?
- After two races he is 35th in points
- People ahead of him in points include: DJ Kennington and Mark Thompson (they only have run one race), Matt DiBenedetto, Jeffrey Earnhardt
- Other than Jimmie, race was pretty incident-free
- Issues with pit guns on pit road. Harvick had an issue. Others did too. Concern?
- Post-race penalties: http://www.espn.com/jayski/cup/2018/story/_/id/22603621/atlanta-post-race-penalties-announced
- Kyle Busch loses crew chief, jackman and tire carrier from next three truck series races
- Previously suspensions have been across all three series? Do we like this single-series thing more or less?
