00:00:00RACE FIT HELP REPORT, BROUGHT TO YOU BY BREZTREE

00:00:03I love the turkey sandwich, it's good, fries, I love the post race, a little water

00:00:07Just the honesty, I love the beer

00:00:08Yeah, I agree, he's going to love one after today

00:00:10No matter the outcome

00:00:11He was sponsored by Budweiser for years, so I think you've got to take that into consideration

00:00:15But I think Casey's always kind of been the epitome of health

00:00:18Look at that, 75 race sprint car schedule

00:00:21Those dirt racers are nuts, I can't believe how many races they do

00:00:24Sometimes upwards of 100 races in a year

00:00:26And I know Casey mentioned that car not being that bad

00:00:29It's because he can't see what the right front looks like

00:00:31Because when you come to a track fast like this

00:00:32You're going to want all the aerodynamics you can have

00:00:35And not having the right front fender is not good

00:00:37You do know if he starts to go fast, there's some aero people

00:00:39That's right

00:00:40Putting their head down like, oh, no way, how's that possible?

00:00:4388 back in, Dylan

00:00:44And this may just be a strategy move here

00:00:48Even though they're a couple laps down

00:00:49Just to try to get things topped off

00:00:52And make any sort of adjustments they need on the 88

00:00:55You guys talked about it, such a disappointing day after so much promise

00:00:58They'll go ahead and change the left side tires here

00:01:00I think they just changed rights when they had that problem

00:01:02So maybe just going to put the lefts on here and make it a full set

00:01:05But what could have been for sure for the 88

00:01:07Yeah, you said it

00:01:08What might have been for the rookie Connor Zilich

00:01:11Who showed off his talent yesterday and practiced today in qualifying

00:01:15But some bad luck is not going to allow it to be paid off

00:01:18Now our race break brought to you by Safelite

00:01:21The Autoglass experts, a recap of what Connor Zilich has faced

00:01:25Yeah, the flat tire in qualifying

00:01:27Having to go to the back

00:01:28Kind of drove his way back up to the top ten

00:01:30And then to have the right front flat here late in the race

00:01:33And he's two laps down

00:01:34He's not out of it

00:01:35But what he has to have is not what happened yesterday in the truck race

00:01:38He does not want to see this race go green

00:01:40He wants to have multiple cautions

00:01:42There's not that many people a lap down

00:01:44He's two down though

00:01:45So all the guys that are one lap down

00:01:46Will have to get that lap back

00:01:48Prior to him getting any of his back

00:01:50I thought the wave might happen there

00:01:53But sometimes depending on where you are

00:01:55Those options don't present themselves when drivers stay out

00:01:57And that's what we've had in this situation

00:01:59Eight drivers, make it seven

00:02:01Stayed on the racetrack in this cycle

00:02:04So it's going to be Dean Thompson who's in the race lead

00:02:07He's up there with Jeb Burton

00:02:08We talk about the points that that team needs

00:02:10As they play the game right around the cut line

00:02:12Kyle Sieg, we've seen play this strategy throughout the year

00:02:16He stays out

00:02:17And Brandon Jones who won the race off pit road

00:02:19Is eighth prior to the choose

00:02:22And you've got to remember

00:02:23We're not even halfway yet

00:02:24So these guys are going to give up some track position

00:02:26But they're going to have a lot of laps left

00:02:28There's probably going to be a lot of stuff happening

00:02:30The second half of this race

00:02:31Based on what we've seen so far today

00:02:33This is a big opportunity for Dean Thompson and Sam Hunt Racing

00:02:36If they can go and get this stage win

00:02:38Came into this race 17th in points

00:02:4025 below the cut line

00:02:4110 points on offer here

00:02:43If you can get the stage win, that'd be huge

00:02:44Yeah, and if I'm Jeb Burton's spotter

00:02:46I'm telling him, look, they have struggled

00:02:47To get going in the outside lane on this restart

00:02:50You need to try to time this out

00:02:52And be prepared that they're going to probably spin the tires

00:02:54Good look at the field

00:02:55Via our Celsius onboard camera

00:02:57Now we look at driver Jeb Burton

00:02:59His dad, Ward, got his first career win here

00:03:02In both the Xfinity Series

00:03:03Wow

00:03:04And the Cup Series

00:03:05Wow

00:03:06He'd love to join them as a Rockingham winner here today

00:03:09Three laps to go

00:03:17Stage two

00:03:18Look at Jesse Love

00:03:24Jump to the outside right there

00:03:26Gets up in the gray

00:03:27Can he make that stick?

00:03:28He's way high

00:03:29That is super aggressive

00:03:31Sideways a little bit

00:03:32Oh, see?

00:03:34Gave him room, Parker

00:03:35Incredible

00:03:35He had to almost check up a little bit on the exit

00:03:37Now he's going to be in a really tough spot

00:03:39Down three and four

00:03:40Unbelievable

00:03:40Those guys

00:03:41We saw him racing for the end of the stage

00:03:43Prior to the caution coming out

00:03:44And it's still the same battle

00:03:46They know how important it is

00:03:48To get in front of the other

00:03:49When this cycles through at the end of the stage

00:03:51He gave him everything he had

00:03:53But he had to eventually give up on that outside

00:03:55It wasn't going to work

00:03:56Look at him

00:03:57He's up there again

00:03:57So dirty

00:03:58He's committed to running up there

00:03:59It must feel good

00:04:00Because, you know, sometimes you see the dirt

00:04:02And you think, you know, it's going to be how slick it is

00:04:04But it must not feel that bad to him

00:04:06To commit to doing that lap after lap

00:04:08Final lap

00:04:09Stage two

00:04:10They're fighting for position

00:04:12Oh, he's on the inside now

00:04:13And here comes Jesse Love

00:04:15Diving to the inside

00:04:15Quaple

00:04:16A little bit of a wiggle

00:04:18Give Love the spot

00:04:20Well, big commitment right there from Jesse

00:04:22To get in front of him

00:04:23That two car feels really good

00:04:25We've seen him fire off as well as anybody

00:04:27That puts him second behind Brandon Jones

00:04:29When you talk about the cycle

00:04:30Now the stage in

00:04:31Back to the green and white checkered flag

00:04:33Dean Thompson

00:04:34In front of Jeff Burton

00:04:35For Dean Thompson

00:04:37First career

00:04:38Stage win

00:04:39That's huge

00:04:39Yep

00:04:40And the first for Sam Hunt

00:04:42Jeff Burton second

00:04:43Clements getting some points

00:04:45Matt DiBenedetto in the top five

00:04:46As well as Anthony Alfredo

00:04:48Who started at the back today

00:04:50A whole lot going on

00:04:51Into stage two

00:04:52Dean Thompson says

00:04:53You guys settle it out behind me

00:04:55I'm just going to go claim that green and white checkered flag

00:04:58Well done for driver 26

00:05:00Stage two complete for the NASCAR Xfinity Series

00:05:09High above Rockingham

00:05:12This picture courtesy our Lucas Oil helicopter

00:05:16How about this

00:05:18We had two first time stage winners today

00:05:20Dean Thompson and Nick Sanchez

00:05:21First time we've had that

00:05:23In an Xfinity race

00:05:24Since mid-Ohio 2019

00:05:27Chase Briscoe Jack Hawksworth

00:05:29You might expect that at a road course right

00:05:31Yeah

00:05:31You get some ringers to come in

00:05:32Not necessarily on an oval though

00:05:34That's right

00:05:34But I kind of expected it today

00:05:36You did

00:05:36Yeah

00:05:37A bit of a road course mentality

00:05:39I knew we'd have a lot of flip over

00:05:41Got some pit stops

00:05:43Progressive pit road is open

00:05:44Dean Thompson and others coming down

00:05:46Kim

00:05:46Yeah and Dean Thompson getting that stage winning

00:05:49Joke on the radio

00:05:50Pretty cool

00:05:50Got to have to tell Freddie

00:05:51He meant spotter Freddie Kraft

00:05:53With the Cup Series being off

00:05:54Freddie on vacation

00:05:55So Greg's up filling in as spotter this weekend

00:05:57But Dean also saying just a tick free in

00:05:59But then lose the nose at the 3.8 mark

00:06:01As you see Jeb Burton on the right side

00:06:03He said it tightened up with the heat cycle

00:06:05He's got chattering on the landing through the center

00:06:07So looking for just a little bit freer condition

00:06:09On that machine

00:06:10Four fresh good-year tires

00:06:11Snowbook

00:06:12He'll pull some tape from the nose as well

00:06:14So these are the drivers that elected to stay out

00:06:20When that caution came right there

00:06:21Inside of ten laps to go

00:06:23In stage two

00:06:25They get their scheduled service

00:06:27And we look at the race off progressive pit road

00:06:30All these drivers going to be deep in the field

00:06:32When we return to the green flag

00:06:34With those that stayed out

00:06:35Thompson wins the race off

00:06:38Plus two for Matt DiBenedetto

00:06:40Eight cars in all made pit stops there

00:06:43Under caution

00:06:44Going to be a fun restart

00:06:46To begin the final stage

00:06:47Some of the players up front

00:06:48Love, Jones, Quapel

00:06:50We'll cover it for you

00:06:51When we come back to Rockingham

00:06:53CW Sports coverage of the NASCAR Xfinity Series

00:07:02Is brought to you by Taheen

00:07:03What's your way to Taheen it?

00:07:06And by Progressive

00:07:07Save when you bundle home, auto, and motorcycle insurance

00:07:11Visit Progressive.com

00:07:13We definitely need a side-by-side broadcast

00:07:18One that you get to see all the action at home like normal

00:07:21And then another hidden camera in here

00:07:23You making fun of everything I do

00:07:25Literally the way you said Taheen

00:07:27It's cold up in here, I will say

00:07:30That's not just the temperature

00:07:31It's the SoundGear onboard camera

00:07:35William Swalich starts up front running in the top five

00:07:38Involved in an accident

00:07:39But you know what?

00:07:40Good little recovery

00:07:41He's back up to 15th

00:07:41Yep, has a little damage to his car

00:07:43That right front does have a little damage

00:07:44Not near as bad as Casey Cain

00:07:47Dylan, do you have more?

00:07:47Let's talk quickly about Jesse Love

00:07:50Danny Stockman, his crew chief

00:07:51Just came on the radio and said

00:07:52I want you to abuse the car on the short run

00:07:54And then manage it for the long run

00:07:56Think that explains why we've seen some aggressive moves

00:07:58On the restarts by the two

00:07:59Don't expect that to change before the end of the race

00:08:02Well, I say Jesse Love has been listening

00:08:04Because that is exactly what we have seen today

00:08:07Look outside row two

00:08:08Sam Mayer has joined the party

00:08:10Haven't talked about him today

00:08:11Restart to begin the final stage

00:08:14Brandon Jones gets the jump into 20

00:08:16Jesse's been one of the most aggressive

00:08:18On using that outside lane

00:08:19He's getting side by side

00:08:20Brandon Jones will have great momentum

00:08:22Down the backstretch here

00:08:23Yeah, it looked like Jones

00:08:25Almost got a little bit of a push

00:08:26From Carson Guapo

00:08:27Who gets to his outside again

00:08:29These restarts are interesting

00:08:31Because

00:08:31Oh!

00:08:32There's no college

00:08:33Contact with Josh Williams

00:08:35You jinxed him out

00:08:36You did it

00:08:37You jinxed him

00:08:38Every time

00:08:38That is definitely the announcer jinx

00:08:40Wow

00:08:41So hey, under that last caution

00:08:43Ryan C got the free pass

00:08:44My math right here says

00:08:46It'll be Casey Kane

00:08:47All right

00:08:47That goes back to the lead lap

00:08:49And for Swalich

00:08:50You know, he was

00:08:51He got away with that earlier damage

00:08:53This is not going to quite be the same

00:08:54He hit the 11 pretty hard

00:08:56Knocked in that nose

00:08:58Into the tires

00:08:59This is going to be hard to recover from

00:09:00Restart so aggressive here

00:09:04Swalich gets three wide

00:09:06Yep

00:09:06Yeah, not his fault there

00:09:07No, that's tough

00:09:09Six caution

00:09:13Of this afternoon's race

00:09:15Comes out as we get going

00:09:16In our final stage

00:09:18Jesse Love

00:09:20Power move

00:09:21To get the lead

00:09:22On the restart

00:09:22He's in front of

00:09:23Quapo, Jones, Gray

00:09:25And Mayer

00:09:26Another restart

00:09:28When we return

00:09:29The Rocky Camp

00:09:30Well, here's

00:09:34I was really fired up

00:09:38About NASCAR

00:09:39Coming back to Rockingham

00:09:41I'm excited about

00:09:41Next Saturday as well

00:09:43Talladega

00:09:43Super Speedway

00:09:44Talladega

00:09:45NASCAR countdown live

00:09:46Happens 3 o'clock

00:09:47Eastern time

00:09:48And I'll tell you what

00:09:50When you go there

00:09:51It's a wild card race

00:09:52And we talk about

00:09:53The variety of winners

00:09:54We've had this year

00:09:54And we could add another one

00:09:55Next week

00:09:56100%

00:09:56It's also a wild card

00:09:57In the infield

00:09:58I've got an RV

00:09:58In the infield

00:09:59For the weekend

00:10:00So guys

00:10:01It'll be interesting

00:10:02If I show up

00:10:02For everything on time

00:10:03Let me know

00:10:03Let's take a look

00:10:07At this

00:10:07So Thomas Nunziata

00:10:08There in that

00:10:09Black and green card

00:10:10Just sort of

00:10:11Scented on the bottom

00:10:12A bit

00:10:12And it 3 wide

00:10:13And put Swalich

00:10:14In such a tough position

00:10:15Not wanting to get up

00:10:16Into the dust

00:10:17That we've seen

00:10:18Be so tough

00:10:18Brennan Poole

00:10:19Kind of the sandwich

00:10:20In that

00:10:21In that middle there

00:10:22Brennan had nowhere to go

00:10:22Yeah he was just stuck

00:10:23But it was a

00:10:25It was a very aggressive

00:10:26Move by Thomas

00:10:27There to the bottom

00:10:28It was

00:10:28And it maybe works

00:10:30If you're just 2 wide

00:10:31But he knew

00:10:31They were 3 wide

00:10:32He made it 3 wide

00:10:33Getting into the corner

00:10:34This is a great

00:10:35The other view

00:10:36Of him getting to the inside

00:10:38Of Brennan Poole

00:10:39He washes Brennan up

00:10:41And Brennan's just kind of

00:10:41Along for the ride

00:10:42Same thing for Swalich

00:10:43I mean once he got hit

00:10:44You just have no control of that

00:10:46And you can see

00:10:48On that onboard

00:10:49Where he doesn't

00:10:50He's trying his best

00:10:51Not to be forced

00:10:52Into all the dust

00:10:53That's on the outside

00:10:53He's trying to stay

00:10:54Within the rubber there

00:10:55That just makes it so tight

00:10:56When you're 3 wide

00:10:57It happened late

00:10:58It was very late

00:10:58And you can't

00:11:00You can't just adjust your line

00:11:01When that happens

00:11:02You've already committed

00:11:03To what your line is

00:11:04And we've seen how many

00:11:05People have had trouble

00:11:05Down the turn 3

00:11:06At that point

00:11:07You have to sort of

00:11:07Let the car take the set

00:11:09That it's going to set

00:11:09You see his numbers here

00:11:11It's been 24th or worse

00:11:13This year

00:11:13In 6 of 9 races

00:11:14And they had that period

00:11:15Early with that

00:11:16Back to back top 10s

00:11:17And I'm like

00:11:17Okay

00:11:18Here we go

00:11:19Since that time

00:11:20Just unable

00:11:21To find their way

00:11:22To the front

00:11:22And when they do

00:11:23Something goes wrong

00:11:24And you just mentioned

00:11:25Where we're heading to

00:11:26Next week

00:11:26It's a great track

00:11:27That you can win at

00:11:28It's also a place

00:11:29You can get wrecked at

00:11:30And have another

00:11:30Terrible finish

00:11:31So tough start

00:11:33To the year here

00:11:33For William

00:11:34Confirming Casey Cain

00:11:35Did get the free pass

00:11:36He's back on the lead lap

00:11:3732 cars on the lead lap

00:11:40Front row here

00:11:40Jesse Love

00:11:41Outside of Brandon Jones

00:11:43For the restart

00:11:44Yeah he did the best job

00:11:45Of anybody though

00:11:46At the launch

00:11:47And I think

00:11:47If he's the control car

00:11:49We'll see right here

00:11:50It still looks like

00:11:50That inside row

00:11:51Is able to launch

00:11:52A little bit better

00:11:52But Jesse's been

00:11:54So aggressive

00:11:54On the restarts

00:11:55As you see

00:11:55Getting down

00:11:56Into turn one

00:11:57He gives the 20 car

00:11:58A little bit

00:11:58Look at the speed

00:11:59He has

00:12:00Middle

00:12:00Yeah that two car

00:12:02All day long

00:12:03Through the middle

00:12:03Of the corner

00:12:03Has been the best

00:12:04I feel like

00:12:06Most of the runs

00:12:07Today he started

00:12:08Behind the eight ball

00:12:08And had to drive

00:12:09It to the front

00:12:10Now he's got

00:12:11Control of the race

00:12:12Talking about

00:12:12The two of Jesse Love

00:12:14Yeah the other trend

00:12:15That I see Parker

00:12:16On these restarts

00:12:16Is especially in the

00:12:17First like ten positions

00:12:18Everybody's fighting

00:12:19To get to the bottom

00:12:20Nobody wants to be

00:12:21On the outside

00:12:21It tells me

00:12:22The track

00:12:23As you mentioned

00:12:23May be really tight

00:12:24Up there

00:12:24And they don't want

00:12:25To get put three wide

00:12:26Like we just saw

00:12:26With Zowalich

00:12:27On board

00:12:32Jeb Burton

00:12:32Nineteenth

00:12:35After doing a solid job

00:12:36To end

00:12:37That second stage

00:12:39They won

00:12:40When you give up

00:12:41The track position

00:12:41To get stage points

00:12:42And you're still

00:12:43Where he is

00:12:43Pretty good spot

00:12:44Really big day

00:12:45Points wise

00:12:45If they can get

00:12:46A couple more spots

00:12:47Here

00:12:47But as you're back

00:12:48Here in the pack

00:12:48Now stage three

00:12:49Everyone's had a chance

00:12:50To work on their cars

00:12:51Get them better

00:12:52This is going to be

00:12:52Harder than ever

00:12:53To try to drive

00:12:54To the field

00:12:54As Anthony Alfredo

00:12:55Gets right to the bumper

00:12:56Of Jeff Burton

00:12:57But this is going to be

00:12:58A tall task

00:12:59To march to the field

00:13:00You know when

00:13:00Zillich and Quample

00:13:01Did it early on

00:13:02People's cars

00:13:03Hadn't had the chance

00:13:04To have many pit stops

00:13:05To work on them

00:13:06But now

00:13:06Everyone's car

00:13:07Is driving the best

00:13:08It has all race

00:13:09And you've got to

00:13:09Make up those positions

00:13:10Oh as he gets into

00:13:11His teammate there

00:13:12Blaine Perkins

00:13:13That was tight

00:13:14Jordan Enstrom

00:13:14Just closed his eyes

00:13:15For a minute

00:13:15Well Blaine pitched him off

00:13:17Just a little bit

00:13:17Getting into the corner

00:13:18You've got to give

00:13:19Just a little bit

00:13:19Of room there

00:13:20But

00:13:20Seventh caution of the day

00:13:22Greg Van Ost

00:13:23Has a problem

00:13:24He was 34th

00:13:29He was two laps

00:13:32Spent down

00:13:32So was Conor Zillich

00:13:34And I think right now

00:13:34By our scoring monitor

00:13:35This should allow Conor

00:13:36To get the free pass

00:13:37Get to one lap down

00:13:39And because he'll be

00:13:40The only car

00:13:40One lap down

00:13:41Basically the next caution

00:13:43He will get the lucky dog

00:13:44It looks like

00:13:44Gosh it looks like

00:13:47The most

00:13:47Oil was on the track

00:13:48Like we saw two of the cars

00:13:49Get really high

00:13:50And up out of the groove

00:13:51We've seen Chris Wright

00:13:52Do that a couple times today

00:13:54So he's found the outside wall

00:13:55There in terms

00:13:56One or two

00:13:56Multiple times

00:13:57Greg I don't know

00:13:58If he was reacting to it

00:13:58Or whatever

00:13:59If there was something

00:14:00On the track

00:14:00Love leading at Rockingham

00:14:03The North Carolina Speedway

00:14:09In Rockingham North Carolina

00:14:10Is one that is difficult

00:14:11At best

00:14:12This one mile of asphalt

00:14:13Known as the Rock

00:14:15Will rip you up

00:14:16And spit you out

00:14:17If that name

00:14:17Makes it sound intimidating

00:14:18It's because this track is

00:14:21It's going to be tough

00:14:22This is all handling

00:14:24All horsepower

00:14:25Grassroots racing

00:14:26All these people here

00:14:27Roll those belts tight

00:14:28It's showtime

00:14:30Look at this

00:14:32He gives him a little

00:14:33He's got it

00:14:34He's got it

00:14:35Whoa

00:14:35I'm telling you

00:14:36Oop

00:14:37Now we're going to rename

00:14:38This racetrack

00:14:38Marking him

00:14:39It's going to be a red dodge

00:14:41Bill Elliott

00:14:41Jamie McCurry

00:14:42With his Ford

00:14:43Bush Series win

00:14:44And he knows that'll do a burnout

00:14:45Doesn't he

00:14:46We got ourselves

00:14:46A little bit of a show here

00:14:48How about that

00:14:49Place opened up

00:14:53Mid-1960s

00:14:54So much history

00:14:55And tradition

00:14:56At Rockingham Speedway

00:14:58Another chapter being written

00:14:59Here today

00:15:00NASCAR Xfinity Series

00:15:01Making their first appearance

00:15:03In 21 years

00:15:04And we've got just over

00:15:06100 laps to go

00:15:07And I saw the cat in the hat

00:15:09Jack Roush

00:15:10In that video clip

00:15:11We just showed

00:15:11Today is his 83rd birthday

00:15:13So happy birthday Jack

00:15:14Oh

00:15:15Jesse Love in the race lead

00:15:19Brandon Jones

00:15:20Second as we anticipate

00:15:22The choose and the restart

00:15:23Jesse Love is wanting to have

00:15:25Another one of those restarts

00:15:26And then run green

00:15:27For a while here

00:15:28To log some laps

00:15:28It's stressful to have to

00:15:30Do that over and over again

00:15:31Brandon Jones gets more

00:15:33Practice at the launch

00:15:35And how he's going to

00:15:36Race Jesse Love

00:15:37Through turns one and two

00:15:38Kim do you have more

00:15:40On Brandon?

00:15:42Yeah let's get a

00:15:42Toyota driver update

00:15:43Brandon Jones currently

00:15:44In that second position

00:15:45The best of the dash

00:15:46For cash

00:15:46And he told me

00:15:47We'll definitely be a contender

00:15:48For the bonus

00:15:48The way the last six weeks

00:15:50Have gone for us

00:15:50And man have they been

00:15:52On a hot streak

00:15:52An average finish of 7.3

00:15:54With five top tens

00:15:55In the last six races

00:15:56Including a win

00:15:57But he did say

00:15:58He acknowledged

00:15:59There were going to be

00:15:59Some challenges for him

00:16:00Today

00:16:01He said

00:16:01This is going to be

00:16:02Tricky for me

00:16:02There's no SMT data

00:16:04To lean on

00:16:05And I'm one that

00:16:06Studies that deeply

00:16:07And then also

00:16:08A different spotter

00:16:09For Brandon Jones

00:16:10On the spotter stand

00:16:11This weekend

00:16:11Chris Lampert

00:16:12His normal regular spotter

00:16:14Taking advantage

00:16:14Of that cup off weekend

00:16:16So again

00:16:17Overcoming those challenges

00:16:18Currently riding

00:16:19In the second position

00:16:20Dylan

00:16:20It's been a great day

00:16:22And weekend so far

00:16:23For Parker Redslop

00:16:24He runs a qualified second

00:16:26But called it the most

00:16:26Painful second place effort

00:16:28Of his entire life

00:16:29But definitely knew

00:16:30They had speed

00:16:31In this race car

00:16:31He said

00:16:32Today's going to be

00:16:32About clean air

00:16:33So to have that

00:16:34As an added bonus

00:16:34But when we tested here

00:16:36Earlier in the offseason

00:16:37We were really happy

00:16:38He evolved our setup

00:16:39From even what we had then

00:16:40I think it's going to be

00:16:41A good day for us

00:16:42And it has been so far

00:16:43Just trying to finish it off now

00:16:44So restart eighth

00:16:45Behind that four car

00:16:46Row five for the restart

00:16:47You got Christian Eckes

00:16:48Outside enjoying a nice day

00:16:50The rookie for team Colling

00:16:51And inside of him

00:16:52Justin Allgaier

00:16:53Going for the dash

00:16:55For Cash

00:16:55He has been so quiet

00:16:57But our reigning champ

00:16:58Got himself back in the game

00:17:00Restarting ninth

00:17:01With 107 remaining

00:17:02It's taken a while though

00:17:03Yes

00:17:04To come back

00:17:04That's all the way back

00:17:05In stage one

00:17:06And it has taken a long time

00:17:07To get there Parker

00:17:07They took that risk

00:17:08For two tires

00:17:09It didn't work

00:17:09And they've had to pay

00:17:10For it ever since

00:17:10Front row

00:17:11Jesse Love controlling

00:17:13Outside of Brandon Jones

00:17:14Green one more time

00:17:16At the rock

00:17:17Another great start

00:17:20By Jesse Love

00:17:21And Carson Quapel

00:17:22Right to his rib bumper

00:17:23Maybe he can get

00:17:23To the outside

00:17:24Of Brandon Jones

00:17:24Here off of two

00:17:25Yeah Carson's been

00:17:26Really good at being able

00:17:27To push whoever

00:17:28Is in front of him

00:17:28Whatever line he's in

00:17:30He's been able

00:17:30To really time those

00:17:31Restarts out

00:17:33And help whatever row

00:17:34He is in

00:17:34As you see

00:17:34He's fighting for his life

00:17:36To get a little bit

00:17:37Of momentum here

00:17:38Down into turn one

00:17:39Can he clear the 20 car

00:17:40And that was really

00:17:43Impressive because

00:17:43He put himself

00:17:44In that position

00:17:45To be fighting

00:17:45Brandon Jones here

00:17:46We usually saw

00:17:46The front row

00:17:47Sort of be

00:17:47At a major advantage

00:17:49On most of the restarts

00:17:50But if he's able

00:17:51To clear Brandon Jones

00:17:52This gives him a shot

00:17:53To go back after

00:17:53Jesse Love

00:17:54Who got by him

00:17:55Earlier in the race

00:17:56See what kind of speed

00:17:57He has in that one car

00:17:58Well and we don't know

00:17:58With the one

00:17:59Because he was on

00:17:59The two tires

00:18:00Right

00:18:00So you don't know

00:18:01Like exactly

00:18:01What is the balance

00:18:02Of that car

00:18:03As you look

00:18:03I mean he's almost

00:18:04Four tenths a lap

00:18:05Slower as he's having

00:18:06To race Brandon Jones

00:18:07But we'll get

00:18:07Single file here

00:18:08See what the one car

00:18:09Has or is the two car

00:18:10Still going to be

00:18:11The dominant car

00:18:12All day long

00:18:12Daniel Dye

00:18:13Looking for another

00:18:14Top 15

00:18:15You ride with a

00:18:16Rookie driver here

00:18:17Right behind Nick Sanchez

00:18:18Who's got a good

00:18:19Comeback going

00:18:20And Adam listen

00:18:20To the throttle

00:18:21And you know

00:18:22As those guys

00:18:22Are in all this traffic

00:18:23We talk about

00:18:24How fast this track is

00:18:26It is until you're

00:18:27In dirty air

00:18:27And you hear

00:18:28Daniel Dye

00:18:29Having to really

00:18:29Work the throttle

00:18:30On the exit there

00:18:30The car is out

00:18:31From underneath

00:18:31It's tight

00:18:32It's loose

00:18:32It's doing everything

00:18:33But what he wants

00:18:34It to do

00:18:34And you heard it

00:18:35On the exit too

00:18:36When he got close

00:18:37To the rear bumper

00:18:37Of Nick Sanchez

00:18:38He started to lose

00:18:38The front end

00:18:39Just had to pedal

00:18:40It on the exit

00:18:40That's the arrow

00:18:41We're talking about

00:18:42The dirty air

00:18:42That you just start

00:18:43To lose the front end

00:18:44Of that race car

00:18:45And it starts to

00:18:45Drive out towards the wall

00:18:46And you've got to

00:18:46Check up your speed

00:18:47And what you want to do

00:18:48Is exactly what he's

00:18:49Doing right here

00:18:49He's like a half a groove

00:18:51Lower than Jeff Burton

00:18:52Just trying to get

00:18:53Any air that you can get

00:18:54On the front end

00:18:54Is a huge advantage

00:18:56And that's what you try

00:18:56To do

00:18:56You try to offset yourself

00:18:58A little bit to the right

00:18:59Or maybe a little bit

00:19:00To the left

00:19:00Just don't want to be

00:19:00Directly behind that car

00:19:02In front of you

00:19:02Oh somebody

00:19:03Got a right front down

00:19:04It's Parker Retzlaff

00:19:05Wow he goes high

00:19:06And the move from Sanchez

00:19:08To avoid him

00:19:09Coming off the corner

00:19:11Let's get an update

00:19:12On the four Dylan

00:19:13Yeah and he had just

00:19:15Come on the radio

00:19:16And said I've got

00:19:16A bad vibration

00:19:17In the front tires

00:19:18So he sort of

00:19:20Predicted it

00:19:20But unfortunately

00:19:21It did go down

00:19:21Now the caution is out

00:19:23And it's out

00:19:24For the eighth time today

00:19:25Patrick Emmerling

00:19:26In the 07

00:19:27Yeah this is probably

00:19:28A reaction

00:19:29To them seeing

00:19:31Parker Retzlaff

00:19:32You know slow down

00:19:33The spotter says

00:19:34You know check it up

00:19:34In front of you

00:19:35Patrick checks up

00:19:36Most likely get to

00:19:37Run into from behind

00:19:38That's exactly what happened

00:19:39There was someone behind him

00:19:40I couldn't quite tell

00:19:41Who it was

00:19:41Who got into the back

00:19:42Of Patrick

00:19:43As they were exactly

00:19:43Trying to check up

00:19:44For Parker Retzlaff

00:19:45Who was at the exit

00:19:46Turn two

00:19:46We talked about all day

00:19:47How tight it is

00:19:48If someone has an issue there

00:19:49It goes from multiple grooves

00:19:51Just down to basically one

00:19:52As Retzlaff was going

00:19:53Super slow

00:19:53That right front down

00:19:54The other car ran

00:19:56In the back of Patrick Emmerling

00:19:57I couldn't quite tell

00:19:58Who it was

00:19:58I would always

00:19:59In that situation

00:20:00I would always

00:20:01If I could see

00:20:02The issue in front of me

00:20:03The spotter tells me that

00:20:04As I got on the breaks

00:20:05I always looked at my rear view

00:20:06Oh yeah

00:20:06To see like

00:20:07Are they slowing down

00:20:08Behind me

00:20:09And try to get out

00:20:10Of the line

00:20:11Of whoever's behind me

00:20:12In case they don't get

00:20:13Slowed down in time

00:20:14So you see Retzlaff

00:20:15Have his issue

00:20:16He's out in the outside

00:20:17Group

00:20:17But now he's going to be

00:20:18No contact though

00:20:18Well yeah

00:20:18Now he's going to be

00:20:19In the groove

00:20:20And who is that

00:20:20Behind Tim

00:20:21That was Dean Thompson

00:20:22Maybe in the 26

00:20:23Yep I think it was

00:20:24That's right

00:20:25Who's behind

00:20:25Patrick Emmerling

00:20:26Who just wasn't able

00:20:27To check up in time

00:20:28As they were coming off

00:20:29Turn two

00:20:29Great job by Retzlaff

00:20:30Such a shame

00:20:31We were just talking about

00:20:32Getting the stage points

00:20:33At stage one

00:20:34Adam did it again

00:20:34Yeah you did it again

00:20:35He's up there in the top ten

00:20:37A huge day for Alpha Prime

00:20:38Hey I'll say this though

00:20:40The caution comes out

00:20:41Which is a huge aid for them

00:20:43Right

00:20:43Because you don't make

00:20:44That pit stop under green

00:20:45Here's the other thing

00:20:46Huge break

00:20:47I would say

00:20:48Connor Zilich

00:20:49Gets the free pass here

00:20:50He's gotten two in a row

00:20:51Wow

00:20:51He returns the lead lap

00:20:53And the last thing

00:20:54I'll say in this scenario

00:20:55100 laps to go

00:20:57Pit road opens

00:20:58It's outside the fuel window

00:20:59But we know how important

00:21:01Track position is

00:21:02Do you play a game here

00:21:03And go ahead

00:21:04And make that stop

00:21:05You need a hall of caution laps

00:21:06But you might get it

00:21:07The way things are going right now

00:21:08I said that Connor Zilich

00:21:10Would get back on the lead lap

00:21:11Both of you looked at me

00:21:11Like I was insane

00:21:12For a second

00:21:13But I thought

00:21:13We had the chance

00:21:14Nothing to do with your analysis

00:21:15That's usual

00:21:15Actually sorry

00:21:16What am I saying

00:21:17That's the look every time

00:21:18We have learned this year

00:21:18Is that Parker's never wrong

00:21:20Okay

00:21:20So we totally understand that

00:21:22Undefeated

00:21:23Finally

00:21:23Somebody understands

00:21:24A lot of drivers staying out

00:21:26Christian Eka says

00:21:27You know what

00:21:28Let's roll the dice

00:21:29Go ahead

00:21:30Come down

00:21:30See what happens

00:21:31Here's the 16

00:21:33Kim

00:21:33Yeah

00:21:36Christian Eka is in

00:21:37Just a little bit snug

00:21:38But overall

00:21:38Not bad

00:21:39Not sure if

00:21:40Maybe this is a strategy call

00:21:41By Alex Yance

00:21:42By coming down now

00:21:44Getting a full tank

00:21:44Maybe they shorten up

00:21:46One of their final stops

00:21:47Of the race

00:21:48I thought Connor Zilich

00:21:51Might

00:21:52Might come here

00:21:53Because

00:21:53Yeah and I like

00:21:54What Kim said right there

00:21:55I think the idea here

00:21:56Get it full of fuel

00:21:57Right now

00:21:57If a caution comes out

00:21:58Again at 10 or 12 laps

00:21:59They're going to have

00:22:00A short feel

00:22:01They can jump a lot of cars

00:22:02Other drivers came down

00:22:03Daniel Dye

00:22:04Eka's his teammate

00:22:06Among the

00:22:06Jesse Love leads

00:22:08100 to go

00:22:09At the rock

00:22:09Getting ready for a restart

00:22:17Going to be 97 laps to go

00:22:19In the race

00:22:20When we return to the green flag

00:22:22Want to confirm

00:22:23That Connor Zilich

00:22:25Did make a pit stop there

00:22:26After getting the free pass

00:22:27They're basically

00:22:28Playing with house money

00:22:29I said they're going to break

00:22:30I felt like they would

00:22:31But confirming the 88

00:22:32Did come down pit road

00:22:33And all of these drivers

00:22:35That made pit stops here

00:22:36Now going to be fun

00:22:37To watch down the stretch

00:22:38And how they play it

00:22:39And can they save some fuel

00:22:40Carla

00:22:40Yeah and drivers

00:22:42Really don't have anything

00:22:43To compare Rockingham Speedway to

00:22:44But they're still trying

00:22:45Rookie Carson Quapel

00:22:46Hasn't been to any

00:22:47All of the tracks

00:22:48On the NASCAR circuit yet

00:22:50But he has compared

00:22:51The corners to Bristol

00:22:52And Dover

00:22:53Also said the repay

00:22:54Feels a lot like

00:22:54North Wilkesboro

00:22:55When he raced late models there

00:22:56However I asked about

00:22:58Turns one and two

00:22:58And he said yeah

00:22:59I've got nothing there

00:23:00No notes

00:23:01It's just different

00:23:02It's going to be a challenge

00:23:03But he's certainly living up

00:23:04To that challenge today guys

00:23:05Parker I think we all try

00:23:07To like take corners

00:23:07And be like

00:23:08I was good at Dover

00:23:09So this corner

00:23:10Kind of reminds me of Dover

00:23:11And this surface

00:23:11Reminds me of Wilkesboro

00:23:12Where I thought it was good too

00:23:13Find whatever

00:23:14Can give you the confidence

00:23:15To fire it off in there

00:23:16And say it's going to stick

00:23:17Yeah I like this battle

00:23:19Right here

00:23:19I think that's our

00:23:20Two best players

00:23:21The two and the one

00:23:22On the front row

00:23:23And as I mentioned earlier

00:23:23Carson's done a great job

00:23:25On all these restarts

00:23:26Can he do it again?

00:23:29Love controlling

00:23:30From the outside lane

00:23:31Again

00:23:31Another great launch

00:23:32Look at that

00:23:33By the one car

00:23:33Getting down

00:23:34Into turns one and two

00:23:36Jesse Love's going to be

00:23:36Super committed to the outside

00:23:38But I think Carson's

00:23:39Going to have something

00:23:40For him right here

00:23:40He's committed

00:23:41Doesn't get loose

00:23:42Great battle down

00:23:44Into turns three and four

00:23:45It was almost like

00:23:46Quample laid back

00:23:47Just a little bit

00:23:48Timed it perfectly

00:23:49Side by side

00:23:50For the lead off of turn four

00:23:51And he got real sideways

00:23:52There on the inside

00:23:53Of turn three

00:23:53We've talked about it all day

00:23:54It's such a treacherous place to be

00:23:56He had a great run out of two

00:23:57But it just didn't work

00:23:58Down into three

00:23:59Yeah he did as good a job

00:24:00As anybody's done

00:24:01All day long though

00:24:02On the inside

00:24:03Or starting on the inside

00:24:04Of the front row

00:24:05If we get another restart

00:24:07Late in the race

00:24:08Jesse Love's going to have

00:24:09To think about that

00:24:09You know which lane

00:24:10Do I want to be in

00:24:11He's been able to win

00:24:12On the outside

00:24:13Quite a few times

00:24:14But that decision

00:24:15Gets tougher

00:24:15We get later in this race

00:24:16I just go back

00:24:17To what you said earlier

00:24:18In the education

00:24:19That everyone gains

00:24:20When you're the bullseye

00:24:22Right

00:24:22You're the one

00:24:23That everyone's going after

00:24:24They get a look at you

00:24:25Jesse Love has been that

00:24:26Everyone goes to school

00:24:27You size them up a little bit

00:24:28And then you apply

00:24:28That knowledge

00:24:29And one thing I've noticed

00:24:31About why the bottom

00:24:32Can be really strong

00:24:32On the restarts

00:24:33You have that distance difference

00:24:34The way this track is shaped

00:24:35You can kind of shade

00:24:36A ton of difference off

00:24:37In terms of distance

00:24:38Down into turn one

00:24:39That's what Carson Quappel

00:24:40Did so well

00:24:41Jesse's going to have to

00:24:42Put that in the notebook

00:24:42For later on

00:24:43If there's late race restarts

00:24:44Because he's doing

00:24:45A great job in the outside

00:24:46But it leaves you

00:24:47Very vulnerable

00:24:47To that inside car

00:24:48Yeah and the lap times

00:24:49That Jesse Love

00:24:50Is laying down right now

00:24:51Out front

00:24:52On kind of a scuffed tire ride

00:24:54That we've let cool down

00:24:55Super fast lap times

00:24:57Right now

00:24:57Compared to anybody else

00:24:58The two cars hooked up

00:24:59Yeah he just bested

00:25:00His fastest lap of the race

00:25:01Yeah

00:25:02Yeah the track has picked up

00:25:03A little bit of speed here

00:25:05Look at Mayer

00:25:08And Allgaier

00:25:09Talk about how tight things are

00:25:12Off the turn two

00:25:12Yes

00:25:13That's a signature

00:25:15That's a little friendly contact

00:25:16Though

00:25:16And that is a signature

00:25:17Of Justin Allgaier

00:25:18Who loves the side draft

00:25:19He does

00:25:20He is one of the most

00:25:20Aggressive in the series

00:25:21At doing it

00:25:22We see it all the time

00:25:23We've got another one

00:25:24Right here

00:25:24Justin Monsignor

00:25:25Monsignor in the 19

00:25:27Making his fourth start

00:25:28Of the year

00:25:29Four time modified champion

00:25:33Yeah it had been a rough

00:25:33Day for Justin

00:25:34We saw him get loose

00:25:35In turn three

00:25:36And got into Sheldon Creed

00:25:38Earlier

00:25:38And now

00:25:39He had made his way

00:25:40Back up to 11

00:25:41He had

00:25:41He's running pretty good

00:25:42Lap times were good

00:25:43He had good track position

00:25:44But his days

00:25:46Is going to be short here

00:25:47About the nose

00:25:48This happened

00:25:49Off a turn two

00:25:50Jeb Burton was behind him

00:25:51Not quite sure

00:25:52If there was contact

00:25:53From Jeb

00:25:54But he was really sideways

00:25:55Off a turn two

00:25:55At the exit

00:25:56Unlike the truck race

00:26:00Yeah I mean

00:26:01Unlike the truck race

00:26:02We've seen a lot

00:26:03A lot of cautions today

00:26:05And we're on board with Jeb

00:26:08That's the 19

00:26:08Justin Bonsignor

00:26:09Already really loose

00:26:10Just a little air loose

00:26:11And

00:26:12Oh

00:26:12Oh it's just going to go around

00:26:14And he chased it

00:26:15For a day

00:26:16Around there

00:26:17It's like I got it

00:26:18I got it

00:26:18I don't got it

00:26:19I got it

00:26:19I don't have it

00:26:20And Parker

00:26:21I think that goes back

00:26:21To like what we were

00:26:22Talking about earlier

00:26:23These tires

00:26:23You have a lot of grip

00:26:25Until you don't

00:26:26And it's not like

00:26:27You lose half the grip

00:26:28Or 10%

00:26:29You just lose all the grip

00:26:31And you saw Justin

00:26:32Have to chase that thing

00:26:33All the way around the corner

00:26:33And just never caught up to him

00:26:35Most cautions at Rockingham

00:26:37Since October

00:26:38Of 95

00:26:39Now you have to factor in

00:26:41We didn't come in here

00:26:42For 21 years

00:26:43But still

00:26:43And we look at laps

00:26:46Since these drivers

00:26:47Were last on Pit Road

00:26:49With 91 to go

00:26:51We're getting close

00:26:52You're really starting

00:26:53To think about it now

00:26:54And I look down there

00:26:56At Ryan Sieg

00:26:57You know

00:26:59He's in a pretty good position

00:27:01Back there in 17

00:27:04And you hear Jeb Burton

00:27:06Shutting the engine off

00:27:06There's two things you do there

00:27:07You're obviously saving fuel

00:27:09Trying to make that

00:27:09Feel shorter

00:27:10But you're also cooling

00:27:11The engine down

00:27:12Just a little bit

00:27:12It's hot out today

00:27:13Another driver

00:27:14I want to point out

00:27:14You know

00:27:14Christian Eckes

00:27:15Who's on that strategy

00:27:17And came down

00:27:18And we thought

00:27:19You know

00:27:19That's an aggressive play

00:27:20But what he wants is

00:27:22He wants cautions

00:27:24If you can save that much

00:27:25And maybe you can

00:27:26I mean

00:27:26We talk about

00:27:27The fact that you

00:27:28Have a shorter pit stop

00:27:29When you come to make

00:27:30Another one

00:27:31If you do

00:27:31But cautions don't hurt you

00:27:33If you're going to save gas

00:27:34And here they are

00:27:35It makes it so much easier

00:27:37When they all come for you too

00:27:39It's not like it's split

00:27:40Everybody feels good about it

00:27:41Kim

00:27:42Yeah

00:27:43And crew chief Sam McCauley

00:27:44For Brandon Jones

00:27:45Says we're just close enough

00:27:46If it keeps this cadence

00:27:47To making on fuel

00:27:48So they're banking on

00:27:49A couple of more cautions

00:27:50You see that chassis adjustment

00:27:52Brandon said

00:27:52Same balance here

00:27:53So just a little tight

00:27:54They're looking to free him up

00:27:55With that adjustment

00:27:56Four fresh Goodyear tires

00:27:57Sunoco feel like

00:27:58Four cars in front of you

00:27:59Dylan

00:27:59Yeah both those cars

00:28:00At the front of the field

00:28:01As well

00:28:01I think banking

00:28:02On some yellow

00:28:03Jesse Love just said

00:28:04That we were snug

00:28:05On fire off

00:28:06I think they might

00:28:06Just change right side tires

00:28:08Here

00:28:08And indeed

00:28:08That's what they do

00:28:10You see Casey Kane

00:28:11Another jam up

00:28:12With the 70

00:28:12Carson Quapel

00:28:13Said he was tight

00:28:14Rolling there

00:28:15But he'll beat

00:28:16The two off pit road

00:28:17How about that

00:28:18The dance for Jesse Love

00:28:19Through traffic

00:28:20He loses two positions

00:28:22Quapel wins the race

00:28:23Off pit road

00:28:24Plus three

00:28:25For Taylor Gray

00:28:26Six drivers

00:28:28Did stay out

00:28:29Our ninth caution

00:28:31Of the day

00:28:31Produced when

00:28:32Jeff Burton

00:28:33Gets Justin Bonsignor

00:28:35And the 19

00:28:36Goes for a ride

00:28:3890 laps remaining

00:28:41Restart

00:28:41When we return

00:28:42Gorgeous day

00:28:51In the Sandhills

00:28:52Of North Carolina

00:28:53NASCAR Xfinity Series

00:28:54Racing at Rockingham

00:28:55For the first time

00:28:57In 21 years

00:28:58A packed house

00:29:00And the fans

00:29:00Getting their money's worth

00:29:01A whole lot going on

00:29:03In this race

00:29:04And a strategy play

00:29:06Is going to shake

00:29:07The lineup

00:29:07As we get ready

00:29:09For a restart

00:29:10Inside of 90 laps to go

00:29:12I would say

00:29:13The word of the race

00:29:14Right now

00:29:14Is stress

00:29:15The stress

00:29:16For the crew chiefs

00:29:17The stress

00:29:17For the drivers

00:29:18Because the caution

00:29:19Always falls

00:29:20Just where you can

00:29:22Maybe make it

00:29:22But you might not

00:29:23Be able to make it

00:29:24And depending on

00:29:25How many cautions

00:29:25We have

00:29:26From here on

00:29:27Through the race

00:29:27We could see this

00:29:28Play out just like

00:29:28The truck race yesterday

00:29:29Where we have a lot

00:29:31Of guys run out of fuel

00:29:32At the end of this thing

00:29:33Ryan Sieg is leading

00:29:34And we'll continue

00:29:36To discuss

00:29:36Can they make it

00:29:37On fuel

00:29:38But of the drivers

00:29:39That are on this

00:29:41Cycle at the front

00:29:42Top five have stayed out

00:29:44We know he's on

00:29:45The plus side of it

00:29:46Austin Green is not

00:29:47The 87 is definitely

00:29:48Going to have to pit again

00:29:49We're not sure

00:29:50About Eckes

00:29:51Retzloff

00:29:51Daniel Dye

00:29:52And then those drivers

00:29:53That just came down

00:29:54Pit road

00:29:55We think even they

00:29:56Are a little bit

00:29:57On the edge here

00:29:58Quapel the best

00:29:59Of the bunch there

00:30:00And Quapel having

00:30:01A great day

00:30:01He's led 47 laps

00:30:03And that's the most

00:30:04Laps he's led

00:30:05In his career

00:30:05We've seen how

00:30:06Aggressive Jesse Love

00:30:07Has been on the

00:30:08Restarts here

00:30:09But for him and

00:30:09Carson Quapel

00:30:10Knowing the situation

00:30:11Knowing some of these

00:30:12Cars may potentially

00:30:13Be trying to stretch it

00:30:14And make it

00:30:14If we get enough

00:30:15Caution laps

00:30:15I think we've got

00:30:16Kim with one of the

00:30:17People trying to make it

00:30:18So let's check in

00:30:22With crew chief Alex

00:30:23Yons

00:30:23You're calling the

00:30:24Shots for Christian

00:30:24I guess when you

00:30:25Came down with 100 to go

00:30:27We thought maybe

00:30:27You were just

00:30:27Shortening up

00:30:28A final stop

00:30:29But you didn't come

00:30:30Is there any way

00:30:31That you guys

00:30:31Stretch it until

00:30:32The very end

00:30:32Oh that's the plan

00:30:33Like we just talked

00:30:34We kind of made our bed

00:30:35So we're just going to

00:30:36Lay in it at this point

00:30:37You know we figured

00:30:38Up how many

00:30:39Caution laps we needed

00:30:40To make it to the end

00:30:41And the way that race

00:30:42Has kind of played out

00:30:42Here hopefully that

00:30:44Plays in our favor

00:30:44All right we'll see

00:30:46What kind of luck

00:30:46They have on their

00:30:47Side here this afternoon

00:30:47Yeah I want you guys

00:30:49To keep your eye

00:30:49On Carson Quapel

00:30:50The orange number one

00:30:52And Jesse Love

00:30:53And the rows three

00:30:54And four on the outside

00:30:54We've seen Jesse Love

00:30:56Go to the outside

00:30:56A lot Parker

00:30:57But is Carson going

00:30:58To defend that

00:30:59When they get down there

00:31:00Because this could be

00:31:00The outcome of the race

00:31:01Who can get to the lead

00:31:02First

00:31:02Yeah Austin Green

00:31:04Was holding them up

00:31:04Daniel Dye

00:31:05Into Carson Quapel there

00:31:06Yeah Dye tried to block

00:31:08But it was too late

00:31:09Shocking that it didn't

00:31:11Wreck the whole field

00:31:11Right there

00:31:12Look at the one car

00:31:12Though get to his outside

00:31:13Did exactly what we've

00:31:15Seed Jesse Love

00:31:16Do all day long

00:31:16Austin Green

00:31:21On the outside

00:31:21Right there

00:31:22In that pink 87

00:31:24Is on a totally

00:31:25Different strategy

00:31:26Much older tires

00:31:27Yeah much older

00:31:27But tires haven't been

00:31:28A huge difference

00:31:29You see him going

00:31:30To maintain that

00:31:31Upper line

00:31:32The one car

00:31:33Going to go to the bottom

00:31:34Try to get to the inside

00:31:35Of Taylor Gray next

00:31:37Harrison Burton

00:31:38Into the top ten

00:31:39Driving the 25

00:31:40Oh Jesse gets to the outside

00:31:42Actually the one

00:31:43The one had a bad

00:31:44Turns one and two

00:31:45But now he'll be

00:31:46Behind Austin Green

00:31:47As they go down

00:31:47The front stretch

00:31:48He's going to look

00:31:49For a hole here

00:31:49Trying to make this work

00:31:50To complete the pass

00:31:51On the one

00:31:52This is the best friend

00:31:53To the 16 and the 39

00:31:55Who have gotten out front

00:31:56Seeing the two fastest cars

00:31:57This race

00:31:58Stuck in traffic

00:31:58Side by side

00:31:59Quample and Love

00:32:01Have been so aggressive

00:32:02All day long

00:32:04And here they are

00:32:05Racing for position

00:32:06And Sammy Smith

00:32:07Is there in the aid

00:32:08Yeah and you mentioned

00:32:09I mean Carson Quample

00:32:09Is racing for his first win

00:32:11But he's also one of

00:32:11The dash for cash drivers

00:32:12Trying to win

00:32:13$100,000 today

00:32:14Watch this right here

00:32:17Carson Quample

00:32:18The third car

00:32:19On the outside

00:32:20Daniel Dye

00:32:21Pulls up the block

00:32:21But it's too late

00:32:22Like Carson

00:32:23Was already there

00:32:23It was almost a reaction

00:32:25That he saw

00:32:25In his rear view mirror

00:32:26Look at the speed

00:32:28Though

00:32:28That Carson's able

00:32:29To carry

00:32:29Once they get down

00:32:30The car gets loaded up

00:32:31In the middle of turns

00:32:32One and two

00:32:32How they all held on to that

00:32:33I'll never know

00:32:34That was so close

00:32:35To being a massive wreck

00:32:36As you pointed out

00:32:37But they're still held up

00:32:38By Austin Green

00:32:39Here

00:32:39Jesse Love

00:32:39Finally to the inside

00:32:41Of him down into turn one

00:32:42When Austin's hanging on

00:32:43Great

00:32:43I mean to be on those

00:32:44Older tires

00:32:44I think he's done

00:32:46A tremendous job

00:32:47Hanging on

00:32:47And just holding on

00:32:48To his track position

00:32:49But for Austin Green

00:32:49We know he's going to

00:32:50Have to pit

00:32:51Based on where he is

00:32:52In regards to fuel

00:32:53Those other drivers

00:32:54Out in front of him

00:32:55We're not sure

00:32:56About Ryan Sieg

00:32:57Who leads

00:32:57Christian Eckes

00:32:58Who is second

00:32:59And Parker Retzloff

00:33:00But as we heard

00:33:01From Alex Johns

00:33:02The plan

00:33:03Is to run it long

00:33:04And see what happens

00:33:05We'll find out

00:33:06Could be a dramatic finish

00:33:08When you talk about

00:33:09Fuel mileage

00:33:09And it appears

00:33:10The one car

00:33:11Is not quite as good

00:33:12On this set of tires

00:33:12As what he's had earlier

00:33:14Has not been able

00:33:14To get to the inside

00:33:15Of Austin Green

00:33:16As Sammy Smith

00:33:17In that A car

00:33:18Gets to the inside

00:33:19And Carson's trying

00:33:20To work the outside

00:33:21Just keeps getting

00:33:21Higher and higher

00:33:22But you're not

00:33:23Going to be able

00:33:23To get much higher

00:33:24Than where he is

00:33:25Right there

00:33:25Actually stepped

00:33:26Over the line

00:33:27Got into that dirty

00:33:28Part of the racetrack

00:33:28And look at all the momentum

00:33:30The one car lost

00:33:31Down the front track

00:33:31You can just sense

00:33:32The frustration

00:33:33And now Harrison Burton

00:33:34Gets sideways

00:33:35Gets into the one

00:33:36The 88 of a color

00:33:37See how much flies

00:33:37By all of them

00:33:38To go up a couple

00:33:39Spots in one corner

00:33:41What a gift to Zilich

00:33:42Connor Zilich

00:33:43Who was two laps down

00:33:45In this race

00:33:46Such a day

00:33:47For the rookie driver

00:33:49Out of Mooresville

00:33:49North Carolina

00:33:50And he is back

00:33:51In the game

00:33:52And he sets on the pole

00:33:53Has to start in the back

00:33:54Has another flat tire

00:33:56Looks like he's

00:33:56Completely out of this

00:33:57But guys

00:33:58The 88 car

00:33:59To me

00:33:59Looks extremely

00:34:00Look how easy

00:34:01He's able to get by

00:34:02Austin Green

00:34:03Who was holding up

00:34:04Waffle and Sammy Smith

00:34:05And all those guys

00:34:06For multiple laps

00:34:07So the 88 car

00:34:08Got the balance

00:34:09Where he needs to be

00:34:09Right now

00:34:09This has been a

00:34:10Disastrous couple laps

00:34:11For Carson Quapel

00:34:12There trying to go

00:34:13To the outside

00:34:14Didn't work for him

00:34:15He's just lost spot

00:34:16After spot now

00:34:17And he's going to

00:34:17Take forever

00:34:18To try to get back

00:34:19Held on to it

00:34:20There when Harrison Burton

00:34:20Got into him

00:34:21And Zilich

00:34:21Stucked on by

00:34:22A little bit of luck

00:34:23Right here with the 88

00:34:24Being on the bottom

00:34:24Because Carson got

00:34:25Checked up

00:34:26Harrison Burton got

00:34:27Checked up

00:34:28Sam Mayer as well

00:34:29All those guys in the

00:34:30Middle of the upper groove

00:34:31Connor was able to get

00:34:32By four

00:34:33Four of them in one corner

00:34:34And that felt pretty good

00:34:35We haven't seen that

00:34:36All day

00:34:37Alright we can take a breath

00:34:41Ryan I feel like that

00:34:42Restart

00:34:42Was a lot

00:34:43Yeah like

00:34:44Same thing for the

00:34:45Drivers right now

00:34:45Okay

00:34:46Take a breath

00:34:46Single file

00:34:47Let's figure out

00:34:48What we've got

00:34:48What is our balance

00:34:49Right now

00:34:50What do we need

00:34:50Are we saving fuel

00:34:51What's our plan

00:34:52Right now

00:34:53And with all that

00:34:54Commotion

00:34:55It allowed Ryan Seek

00:34:56Here in the lead

00:34:57To get a 1.7 second

00:34:58Lead over Eckes

00:34:59As well as Eckes

00:35:00Having a second or so

00:35:01Lead over Jesse Love

00:35:03Who's back in fifth

00:35:04So this really let

00:35:05These leaders get away

00:35:07If fuel is a concern

00:35:08If they're most likely

00:35:09Going to need some more

00:35:09Caution laps

00:35:10But they can definitely

00:35:11Manage their race cars

00:35:12Out here up front

00:35:12Look at this for Seek

00:35:14Closing on 400

00:35:15Career starts

00:35:16He's been a runner up

00:35:17Five times

00:35:17He's never been

00:35:18To victory lane

00:35:20And I go back to

00:35:21Something I said

00:35:21Yesterday in practice

00:35:23And that is

00:35:24The next two races

00:35:25We go to

00:35:26Talladega and Texas

00:35:27The last time

00:35:28We visited those tracks

00:35:29Right

00:35:30He was the runner up

00:35:31He knows the heartbreak

00:35:33Of finishing second

00:35:34We've got a long way to go

00:35:3675 laps remaining

00:35:37We know he's probably

00:35:38Got to save some fuel here

00:35:39If he's going to run

00:35:40To the end

00:35:40But he's in position

00:35:42Right now

00:35:42To take advantage

00:35:43Of a really good afternoon

00:35:44But he's not saving fuel

00:35:45Right now

00:35:46You look at the lap times

00:35:47He just ran a 24 flat

00:35:48It's about the same lap time

00:35:49That everybody else

00:35:50Throughout the field

00:35:51Is running

00:35:51That's about where

00:35:52They've been

00:35:52All day long

00:35:53With the exception

00:35:54Of Jesse Love

00:35:55There in that one stage

00:35:56So right now

00:35:57Ryan Seek

00:35:57Isn't out saving fuel

00:35:58He's got almost

00:35:59A two second lead

00:36:00He you know

00:36:01It's almost like

00:36:02Catch 22

00:36:03You want a caution

00:36:04Because you need it

00:36:05To make it on fuel

00:36:05But you don't really

00:36:06Want to get all

00:36:07Bunched back up either

00:36:08A lead this big

00:36:10Feels really good

00:36:11We haven't seen a lead

00:36:12That big all day long

00:36:13Either

00:36:14Yeah I mean

00:36:14He is checked out

00:36:15Right now

00:36:16And kind of maintaining

00:36:17But the other thought

00:36:18Is we've had so many

00:36:19Cautions today

00:36:20You got a bunch

00:36:21Of cars on the lead lap

00:36:2231 cars on the lead lap

00:36:23So if a caution

00:36:24Does come out

00:36:25I mean

00:36:26There's really not

00:36:27Many strategy opportunities

00:36:28From here

00:36:29Because if you do

00:36:30Make a pit stop

00:36:30You're just going to

00:36:31Lose a ton of track

00:36:32Position

00:36:32Because so many cars

00:36:34Are going to stay out

00:36:34At this point in the race

00:36:36You know what really

00:36:37Makes a driver mad

00:36:38Is when someone

00:36:39With no fender

00:36:40Passes you

00:36:41And you have

00:36:42All your fenders

00:36:43Right there

00:36:43You're like

00:36:43How is that even possible

00:36:45Casey though

00:36:46Making the most

00:36:47Out of his return

00:36:47Here to the Xfinity Series

00:36:49Got caught up in a wreck

00:36:50Not of his doing

00:36:52But he's done a really good job

00:36:54To get his lap back

00:36:55And just doing

00:36:56Casey Kane things

00:36:57Right now

00:36:58And you get the feeling

00:37:02The way this race

00:37:03Has played out

00:37:04If he hadn't had the issue

00:37:05I mean we would be

00:37:06Talking about him

00:37:07In that mix

00:37:08Because he's right there

00:37:08Where all those other

00:37:09Drivers have been

00:37:10Running up inside

00:37:11The top five

00:37:11Through most of the day

00:37:12And it was early in the day

00:37:13But he was the fastest car

00:37:15At that point

00:37:15When he got involved

00:37:16In that wreck

00:37:16Because Parker Retsoff

00:37:17Had that right front go down

00:37:18We thought it was a shame

00:37:19Out of the top ten

00:37:20Now fighting for second place

00:37:21With Christian Eckes

00:37:22Major rebound for him

00:37:24Yeah and guys

00:37:24It's been a little bit

00:37:25Of an up and down day

00:37:26For everybody

00:37:27I mean at one point

00:37:27We thought that

00:37:28Oh look at that right there

00:37:30Austin Hill making it

00:37:30Three wide

00:37:31Getting inside

00:37:32It's like Brennan Poole

00:37:32Lost all of his momentum

00:37:34As now Casey's going to

00:37:35Make it three wide

00:37:36Getting down

00:37:37Into turn one

00:37:38Heck of a battle

00:37:39He's having with all

00:37:40These guys

00:37:40But there's just been

00:37:41A lot of up and down

00:37:42Like Zillich

00:37:43You know we talked about

00:37:44Him being one of the

00:37:45Best cars

00:37:46Oh Kyle Seegs around

00:37:48Tenth caution of the day

00:37:49Ryan Ellis

00:37:50With big damage as well

00:37:52Again that's a chain reaction

00:37:53Ellis probably checked up

00:37:55And someone behind

00:37:56Did not

00:37:56So what do you think

00:38:00Are you feeling good

00:38:00About this if you're seeing

00:38:01Are you relieved

00:38:03You're happy

00:38:03Save save save

00:38:04Every caution lap

00:38:05Is enormous right

00:38:06Right

00:38:07And with the lead

00:38:08He was able to get

00:38:09Just nailed the restart

00:38:10Right

00:38:11You know these caution

00:38:11Laps are helping a ton

00:38:12We went on board

00:38:13With Jeb Burton

00:38:14You heard him shutting

00:38:14Off the car earlier

00:38:15You'll do that to save fuel

00:38:17It's how you do it

00:38:17Under caution

00:38:18It also cools down

00:38:19That motor

00:38:19But you'll do it

00:38:21As aggressively as you

00:38:21Possibly can

00:38:22Coasting around this

00:38:23Race track

00:38:23Under caution laps

00:38:24I always found that

00:38:25To be more tiring

00:38:26Than driving

00:38:26It's having to like

00:38:27Push the clutch in

00:38:28Hold the clutch in

00:38:29Especially if that clutch

00:38:30Is heavy

00:38:30Some days it's heavy

00:38:31Oh

00:38:32Tiring

00:38:32Kyle Seegs loses it

00:38:36On the inside there

00:38:37If Daniel died

00:38:38And then you mentioned it

00:38:39Jamie

00:38:39It's just a chain reaction

00:38:40Here behind him

00:38:42Yeah that's unfortunate

00:38:43Unfortunate for Ryan

00:38:44Well I mean

00:38:45Kyle was running

00:38:46In the top 20

00:38:48You know

00:38:48Having another good day

00:38:49Pretty good day

00:38:50Yeah and Ryan too

00:38:53Right

00:38:53I mean wrong place

00:38:54Wrong time

00:38:54Yeah Ryan got in the back

00:38:56Of Jeremy Clements

00:38:57Was locked up in the rears

00:38:59And just then spun off

00:39:01Of that situation

00:39:01After getting in the back

00:39:02Of Jeremy Clements

00:39:03Kyle's on pit road

00:39:06But I feel like right now

00:39:08Caution coming out

00:39:10With this many laps to go

00:39:12Everyone's

00:39:13Okay to stay out

00:39:15I mean there's

00:39:15There's no play here

00:39:16You've kind of made your bet

00:39:16Yeah

00:39:17Right now

00:39:17We know with Sieg

00:39:19And Eckes

00:39:19I mean we heard from

00:39:20Christian's crew chief

00:39:21He's like no

00:39:21We're staying out right now

00:39:23So I think we know

00:39:24The plan for all these guys

00:39:26And what they plan to do

00:39:27Alex Yachts was committed

00:39:28He was

00:39:30He sold it well

00:39:30Didn't he

00:39:31And I'm sure he sold

00:39:32At an even higher level

00:39:33To Christian Eckes

00:39:34When they made the play

00:39:35We've talked so much

00:39:44About the history

00:39:45And tradition

00:39:46Of Rockingham

00:39:47And the legends

00:39:49Have delivered here

00:39:50Jeff Gordon

00:39:51Late 90s

00:39:53That was a familiar scene

00:39:56Huh?

00:39:56Seeing that car

00:39:57In victory lane

00:39:57Anywhere

00:39:58Absolutely

00:39:58Your buddy

00:39:59Matt Kenseth

00:39:59This is a great race

00:40:01Actually Matt

00:40:02Beat Casey Kane

00:40:02Just barely beat him

00:40:03To the line

00:40:04I ended up finishing

00:40:05Third that day

00:40:06That was a great time

00:40:07For Kenseth

00:40:08That year

00:40:08So fast

00:40:09Those guys

00:40:10Every single weekend

00:40:10I remember watching it

00:40:13From school

00:40:14You were like six

00:40:15Yeah

00:40:15That's right

00:40:16But you know what's funny

00:40:17About the deal with Kenseth

00:40:19So he wins that race

00:40:20In 04

00:40:20And you talked about

00:40:21Him beating Casey Kane

00:40:22That would have been

00:40:22Casey's first career win

00:40:24If you rewind

00:40:25To the end of 2003

00:40:27Bill Elliott

00:40:28Got his final career victory

00:40:30Both were driving

00:40:30The nine car

00:40:32Play by play

00:40:33Slash historian

00:40:34Adam Alexander

00:40:35Hey Austin Green

00:40:36He's a strategist

00:40:37Comes down and pits here

00:40:38But we knew

00:40:39They were going to have

00:40:40To make another pit stop

00:40:41Because they were way behind

00:40:42When you talk about

00:40:44The strategy they were on

00:40:45But hey

00:40:46I say this

00:40:47There's no doubt

00:40:48They can go the distance

00:40:49And he's going to be

00:40:51In a situation

00:40:51Where he's got some

00:40:52Fresher tires

00:40:53I realize that's not

00:40:54Been a big deal today

00:40:55But over the course

00:40:56Of the long haul

00:40:56Maybe it makes a difference

00:40:58Unfortunate thing

00:40:59Just so many drivers

00:41:00On the lead lap

00:41:01We were blessed

00:41:01With the weather today

00:41:02I mean that scene

00:41:04Is just incredible

00:41:05The crowd

00:41:06The weather

00:41:06Everything

00:41:07It's a little warm today

00:41:08Perfect day for racing

00:41:09What about the 39

00:41:13Race leader Dylan

00:41:15Yeah I just climbed

00:41:16Up on the box

00:41:17And spoke to Matt

00:41:18Noyce

00:41:18The crew chief

00:41:18And he said

00:41:19I'd like another yellow

00:41:20I'd love two yellows

00:41:22And the computer says

00:41:23We're good

00:41:24But I'm not so sure

00:41:24That we are

00:41:25So either way

00:41:26It's going to be

00:41:27Really close for the 39

00:41:28But they did come

00:41:29On the radio too

00:41:30Just a minute ago

00:41:30And said

00:41:31We've made our bets

00:41:32And now we just

00:41:32Got to run this out

00:41:33And hope that it

00:41:34Falls our way

00:41:35So going for his

00:41:36First career win

00:41:37If they could do it

00:41:37On fuel mileage

00:41:38It'd be pretty exciting

00:41:39He's going for his

00:41:40First career win

00:41:41And we had a long

00:41:42Winless streak

00:41:43Come to a close

00:41:43Last night

00:41:44In the Craftsman

00:41:45Truck Series race

00:41:46Here

00:41:46Tyler Ankrum

00:41:47And he pitted

00:41:49With right around

00:41:5090 laps to go

00:41:51Not trying to compare

00:41:52Because we know

00:41:52Everything's different

00:41:53On fuel mileage

00:41:54And all that

00:41:54But Corey Heim

00:41:55Thought he might be

00:41:57The guy

00:41:57He makes a pit stop

00:41:58Chandler Smith

00:41:59Running top three

00:42:00He runs out of gas

00:42:01And Tyler Ankrum

00:42:03Is able to make the play

00:42:04And win

00:42:05For the first time

00:42:06Since 2019

00:42:07That was his only

00:42:08Other victory

00:42:09First of his career

00:42:10Coming at Kentucky Speedway

00:42:11You know who also

00:42:12Pitted at the same lap

00:42:13As the 18

00:42:13That was me

00:42:1475

00:42:15Marker

00:42:16We lost the left rear hub

00:42:17Before we could

00:42:18Complete that situation

00:42:19One of the

00:42:20You know the stresses

00:42:21For the teams

00:42:22And the crew chiefs

00:42:22Are you know

00:42:23We calculate

00:42:23To make it to the end

00:42:25But based on what

00:42:25We've seen today

00:42:26We probably got a good

00:42:27Shot of going into overtime

00:42:28And that's one of the

00:42:29Things they try to factor in

00:42:30Is at least one

00:42:31Overtime restart

00:42:32And the 39

00:42:33I love the crew chiefs

00:42:36Like well the computer

00:42:37Says we'll make it

00:42:38But I don't believe

00:42:39The computer right now

00:42:40And what's the point

00:42:40Of the computer

00:42:41Would be my question

00:42:42I'm totally sympathetic

00:42:42To that

00:42:43Absolutely

00:42:43I was talking about

00:42:45The fact that

00:42:46Ryan Sieg

00:42:46He takes the inside

00:42:47Lane here

00:42:48I was talking about

00:42:48The fact that

00:42:49He's finished second

00:42:49At both Talladega

00:42:51And Texas

00:42:51He did that

00:42:52The last two times

00:42:53We've been there

00:42:53Last year

00:42:54And it took me

00:42:57To Iowa

00:42:58I think it was

00:42:582017

00:42:59And he finished

00:43:01Second to William Byron

00:43:02And I'm like

00:43:03Oh man

00:43:04William's gonna win

00:43:04So many races

00:43:05In his career

00:43:06When's Sieg

00:43:07Gonna have another chance

00:43:08So here it is

00:43:09And the way he lost

00:43:10To Texas

00:43:11Right out about a year ago

00:43:12Was just heartbreaking

00:43:14Sam Mayer

00:43:15Got him by

00:43:16That much

00:43:17What an unbelievable

00:43:18Finish

00:43:19For all of us

00:43:20Who are watching

00:43:20But definitely

00:43:21Just got out of the

00:43:22Groove a little bit

00:43:23Sam Mayer made a major

00:43:24Run in the final lap

00:43:25Got beside him

00:43:26And it was that

00:43:26Awesome finish

00:43:27At the end

00:43:28But a heartbreaking

00:43:29Way to lose

00:43:29And Adam

00:43:30Something to keep in mind

00:43:30I mean he pitted

00:43:3137 laps ago

00:43:32But almost half of those

00:43:34Have been run under caution

00:43:35So I think it's playing out

00:43:37Into Ryan Sieg's favor

00:43:39Right now

00:43:39The amount of caution

00:43:40Laps we've had

00:43:40And we factor what

00:43:42Two caution laps

00:43:43Two to one

00:43:43Yeah two to one

00:43:44So in that case

00:43:45They're trying to get to 20

00:43:46We've been at 15

00:43:46Caution laps

00:43:47Give or take

00:43:47They're almost right

00:43:48On their number

00:43:49What they needed

00:43:49Caution lap wise

00:43:50Jeff

00:43:51Jesse Love

00:43:51Goes outside row two

00:43:53And he will be

00:43:54The best on the restart

00:43:55Of those drivers

00:43:56On the outside

00:43:57The plus side

00:43:58Here he goes again

00:43:59We talk about fuel mileage

00:44:00Front row

00:44:01Ryan Sieg

00:44:02Christian Eck

00:44:03Is 62

00:44:03Remaining at Rockingham

00:44:05Yeah Christian's

00:44:06Going to have to

00:44:06Protect that run

00:44:07A little high

00:44:08As they get down

00:44:08Into one and two

00:44:10You see Jesse Love

00:44:11Already kind of

00:44:11Setting that up

00:44:12What kind of momentum

00:44:12Can he get

00:44:13Through the middle

00:44:14Of the corner

00:44:15Good decision

00:44:16Going to be three wide

00:44:17Right there

00:44:17Oh look at that

00:44:18Run off two

00:44:19Big time crossover

00:44:21Wow

00:44:23Love goes inside

00:44:24Of Akis

00:44:24Two car up to second

00:44:26Yeah

00:44:26He has been

00:44:27It's been really fun

00:44:28Impressive to watch

00:44:30What Jesse Love

00:44:30Has been able to do

00:44:31On the restarts

00:44:32What kind of an

00:44:33Over under right there

00:44:34Didn't force

00:44:35The issue

00:44:35And I think

00:44:36We even saw

00:44:37That earlier

00:44:37With the two car

00:44:38Not forcing it

00:44:39With Carson

00:44:39Quapel Parker

00:44:40Ekis got a little

00:44:40Bit checked up

00:44:41Which will happen

00:44:42On the outside

00:44:43They're on a restart

00:44:44Sometimes if you

00:44:44Have prepped your

00:44:45Tires well enough

00:44:46You can get very

00:44:46Tight right on the

00:44:47Exit

00:44:48And that's what

00:44:48Happened to Ekis

00:44:49He checked up

00:44:49That gave Jesse

00:44:50A massive run

00:44:51Down the back stretch

00:44:52How about

00:44:52Retzloff

00:44:53Hanging

00:44:53Holding tight

00:44:54On the bottom

00:44:54Right there

00:44:55You see he's

00:44:55Running in third

00:44:55Position

00:44:56Sammy Smith

00:44:57Is going to get

00:44:57To his outside

00:44:58As we take

00:44:59Another look

00:45:00Oh Ekis got

00:45:01Into the wall

00:45:01Right there

00:45:02I didn't see

00:45:02That allowed

00:45:03Jesse Love

00:45:04To get that

00:45:04Momentum down

00:45:05To the inside

00:45:06What a battle

00:45:06Though these guys

00:45:07They know how

00:45:08Important these

00:45:09Restarts are

00:45:10This is when

00:45:10You take advantage

00:45:11Right you go

00:45:12Establish that

00:45:13Track position

00:45:13And you want

00:45:14To take advantage

00:45:15When you get

00:45:16That green flag

00:45:16On a restart

00:45:17Jesse Love

00:45:18Has been outstanding

00:45:19With that all day

00:45:20Long

00:45:20And Retzloff

00:45:21Is like trapped

00:45:22On the bottom

00:45:22Right now

00:45:22As you see all

00:45:23These guys are

00:45:24Able to carry

00:45:24The momentum

00:45:25Around the bottom

00:45:26And I feel like

00:45:26The track has

00:45:27Kind of changed

00:45:27As the day's

00:45:28Gone on

00:45:28Like there's been

00:45:29Times that you're

00:45:29Like well the

00:45:30Bottoms

00:45:30Bottoms the favorite

00:45:32And right now

00:45:32It just seems like

00:45:33That outside groove

00:45:34Has found a little

00:45:35Bit of momentum

00:45:36Or the four cars

00:45:37Struggling a little

00:45:37More on the bottom

00:45:38And we started

00:45:38With a really warm day

00:45:40But as Kim

00:45:40Who's out in the elements

00:45:41Told us on the break

00:45:42Earlier it's getting

00:45:43A little cooler out there

00:45:44The track grip is going up

00:45:45That lends it to the bottom

00:45:46Being a little bit

00:45:47More competitive at times

00:45:48But definitely

00:45:48That grip level up

00:45:50Everyone's had the chance

00:45:50To work on the race cars

00:45:51This is the best

00:45:52They've been driving all day

00:45:53Oh that seven car

00:45:54You saw him able to get

00:45:55To the inside

00:45:56Of Taylor Gray right there

00:45:57That reminds me

00:45:58Of what we've seen

00:45:59Jesse Love

00:46:00The two car

00:46:00Been able to do all day long

00:46:02Kind of pick the gas up

00:46:03Just a little bit

00:46:04Through the middle

00:46:04Hope it doesn't get

00:46:05Too loose on the exit

00:46:06We you know

00:46:08We've kind of documented

00:46:08Justin's day all day long

00:46:10It's been a battle

00:46:12Right they did those

00:46:12Two tires in stage one

00:46:14Had the bad restart

00:46:15And he has just

00:46:16Battled back all day long

00:46:17And he's got a streak

00:46:18On the line

00:46:19Top five in six

00:46:20Consecutive races

00:46:21And going for the

00:46:22Dash for cash

00:46:23As he races

00:46:24Taylor Gray for eighth

00:46:25He's second in line

00:46:26For the dash for cash

00:46:28His teammates

00:46:29Got that position

00:46:30Right now

00:46:31Sammy Smith is fourth

00:46:32Left of your screen

00:46:33Battle for the lead

00:46:34Ryan Sieg

00:46:35He's got it

00:46:36But Jesse Love

00:46:37Closing down

00:46:38Yeah but I'll tell you what

00:46:39Sieg's lap times

00:46:40I know that he got up there

00:46:41Through some strategy

00:46:42And track position

00:46:43Don't count the 39 out

00:46:45His lap times are as good

00:46:46As anybody

00:46:47And they continue to get faster

00:46:48As the track cools down

00:46:50The balance of that car

00:46:51Is where he needs

00:46:52It's not going to be easy

00:46:53For Jesse Love

00:46:54He's going to have to hold off

00:46:55The fastest car of the day

00:46:57Though throughout this day

00:46:58Jesse Love has flown

00:46:59Oh

00:46:59Quapel and Taylor Gray

00:47:01Get together down the front stretch

00:47:02Into one

00:47:03All Geier got by

00:47:05Now Quapel gets by

00:47:06Taylor Gray

00:47:07Oh you see Taylor's

00:47:07Going to get a little bit

00:47:08Of momentum

00:47:08Back on the one car

00:47:10Going to get to his inside

00:47:11As they get down to turn three

00:47:13The entry to turn one

00:47:14Is really unique

00:47:15At this racetrack

00:47:15It just like funnels down

00:47:17It's an odd angle

00:47:19For both the bottom

00:47:20And the top

00:47:21And I think it makes it

00:47:22Even more of a challenge

00:47:23As we take a look again

00:47:24At the 54 and the one

00:47:27It's just a weird angle

00:47:29Getting down into that

00:47:30And they're going so fast now

00:47:31And it's exactly what you were saying

00:47:33You know that the 54

00:47:34And the one were trying

00:47:35Almost going to the corner

00:47:36At different angles

00:47:37As they were trying to get into it

00:47:38Because it does funnel you down

00:47:39And you have to almost turn

00:47:41And before you even start

00:47:42Slowing down

00:47:43Start turning

00:47:43And then release the throttle

00:47:44Look at the drivers here

00:47:45Racing for 13

00:47:46Saw it just a second ago

00:47:48Anthony Alfredo

00:47:50And Nick Sanchez

00:47:51On board Jeb Burton

00:47:54Celsius on board camera

00:47:56You see how steady

00:47:58Jeb Burton's wheel is

00:47:59As he gets down to the corner

00:48:00That tells me it's tight

00:48:01You know you get down

00:48:02In the corner

00:48:03Parker I would tell you

00:48:04I would rather have

00:48:05A little bit of a tight car

00:48:06To repave like this

00:48:07Because when it gets out

00:48:08From underneath you

00:48:08It is so hard to catch

00:48:10100%

00:48:10Jeb's trying to work

00:48:11His way through the field

00:48:12So it feels like

00:48:13The fifth or sixth time

00:48:14Today watching him

00:48:15Come back to the field

00:48:16They pitted

00:48:16Put four tires on this car

00:48:18Trying to work his way

00:48:19Back through

00:48:20Big points day for Jeb

00:48:21Earned 15 points

00:48:23In the stages

00:48:23Most of the day

00:48:24If anyone

00:48:24And for a driver

00:48:25That came in

00:48:26Right around that cut line

00:48:28Even though we're early

00:48:28In the season

00:48:29You have to take advantage

00:48:30And they have done

00:48:31Sam Mayer

00:48:36Having a quiet day

00:48:36I know we've mentioned

00:48:37His name

00:48:38A couple of times

00:48:39But they started

00:48:39The weekend off

00:48:40With these power steering issues

00:48:41They were able

00:48:42To get those fixed

00:48:44Kim do you have

00:48:44Something else

00:48:45On Sam Mayer

00:48:45Yeah as we talk about

00:48:48Sam Mayer

00:48:48Currently running

00:48:49In the sixth position

00:48:49They're finally getting

00:48:50Pointed back

00:48:51In the right direction

00:48:52After back-to-back finishes

00:48:53Outside the top ten

00:48:55For the first time

00:48:55This season

00:48:57And you mentioned

00:48:57Those power steering issues

00:48:58In practice

00:48:59Despite that

00:49:00Sam had a lot of confidence

00:49:01In his guys

00:49:02He told that to Dylan

00:49:03During our NASCAR countdown

00:49:04Live pre-race show

00:49:05He could have used

00:49:06The extra practice

00:49:07But despite that

00:49:08They have worked on this car

00:49:09Made it better

00:49:10Again currently running

00:49:11In the sixth position

00:49:11However before

00:49:12Sam took the green

00:49:14The team said

00:49:14We need some more fuel

00:49:15Saving from you

00:49:16We're currently five laps short

00:49:18So still in fuel saving mode

00:49:19For Sam Mayer

00:49:20Dylan

00:49:21Harrison Burton runs

00:49:22In the twelfth spot

00:49:23Which is actually

00:49:23A couple spots back

00:49:25Of where they've run

00:49:26For kind of the middle

00:49:27Two-thirds portion

00:49:28Of this race

00:49:28Have been inside the top ten

00:49:30And fairly happy

00:49:31With the race car

00:49:31Once they got it

00:49:32Into that track position

00:49:33Talked with Harrison

00:49:35Before the race

00:49:35And he said

00:49:36Look we're kind of

00:49:36Desperate for a good run

00:49:37We just need to get

00:49:38The thing

00:49:38Get this thing going

00:49:39Get our season

00:49:40Righted a little bit

00:49:41So we're going to be

00:49:42Willing to make some moves

00:49:43If we have to

00:49:43Do some strategy decisions

00:49:44To get track position

00:49:46He started 27th

00:49:47And is inside

00:49:48The top 15 now

00:49:49Let's go back

00:49:50Inside the top ten

00:49:51Thank you Dylan

00:49:52Thank you Kim

00:49:53Racing for seventh

00:49:54Connor Zilich is there

00:49:56Justin Allgaier

00:49:57Carson Quapel

00:49:58Zilich has just been

00:49:59Amazing

00:50:00Average running position

00:50:01For him today

00:50:0219.5

00:50:04But here he is

00:50:05With an opportunity

00:50:05To finish top ten

00:50:07Well what's more

00:50:07Impressive is

00:50:08That he's had

00:50:08Two flat tires

00:50:09And his car

00:50:09Still looks brand new

00:50:10Unreal

00:50:11He hasn't hit anything

00:50:12How many times

00:50:13Have we written him

00:50:14Off today

00:50:14Right

00:50:14You guys did

00:50:16Well okay

00:50:16It wasn't me

00:50:17Parker's never wrong

00:50:18Ever

00:50:19Never ever

00:50:20Just ask Parker

00:50:21Now that you learned it

00:50:22It's good

00:50:22I want to go back

00:50:26And we heard

00:50:28The Sam Mayer

00:50:30Fuel mileage

00:50:30That they're five

00:50:31Laps short

00:50:31Okay that's a Ford

00:50:33The car leading

00:50:33Ryan C

00:50:34Hitted ten laps

00:50:35Before him

00:50:36So that tells me

00:50:37Most likely

00:50:38He's going to be

00:50:39Like fifteen

00:50:39Laps short

00:50:40That's a lot

00:50:40Of fuel to save

00:50:41And I know

00:50:42They mentioned

00:50:43You know

00:50:43That the computer

00:50:45Said they could make it

00:50:45But that would

00:50:46Make me nervous

00:50:47That is a great point

00:50:48Jamie

00:50:48Because if you look

00:50:49Back to the last

00:50:50Two years

00:50:50It was a great point

00:50:51Yeah no you actually

00:50:52Know some things too

00:50:53Because if you look

00:50:55Back to the last

00:50:55Two years

00:50:56When we've had

00:50:56Fuel mileage races

00:50:57In the Xfinity Series

00:50:58Sometimes the Fords

00:50:59Have been the first

00:50:59To have to pit

00:51:00They haven't made it

00:51:01This far

00:51:01Which is historically

00:51:02We've seen the Cups series

00:51:03Sometimes some of the

00:51:03Best fuel mileage

00:51:04Is out of the Fords

00:51:05For whatever reason

00:51:05The Xfinity Series

00:51:06Xfinity Series

00:51:07Not quite the case

00:51:08We'll see how it

00:51:09Matches up today

00:51:09Well and something

00:51:10Else to keep in mind

00:51:11Is that if Sieg

00:51:12Has been basing

00:51:13That fuel mileage off

00:51:14Being you know

00:51:14In the middle

00:51:15Or the back of the pack

00:51:16You get better

00:51:17Fuel mileage back there

00:51:18Because you can't

00:51:18Use as much throttle

00:51:19He's now in the front

00:51:20And he's running

00:51:21As good of lap times

00:51:22As anybody

00:51:22I mentioned even

00:51:23A little quicker

00:51:24Than Jesse Love

00:51:24A lot of laps

00:51:25That burns more fuel

00:51:27So at some point

00:51:28If this stays green

00:51:29They're going to have

00:51:30To come on

00:51:30And tell him

00:51:31We need to start

00:51:32Saving a little bit

00:51:33Even if he can't win

00:51:34You still need to get

00:51:35The best finish

00:51:36That you can get

00:51:36Look at this top six

00:51:40As you look at the bumper there

00:51:42All different teams

00:51:44Right

00:51:44You got a little

00:51:45RSS racing

00:51:47A little RCR

00:51:47A little colleague

00:51:48A little Junior Motorsports

00:51:49Parker Retzloff

00:51:50Driving for Tommy Joe Martin

00:51:52Sam Mayer

00:51:53Haas factory team

00:51:54I mean you talk about

00:51:55Parity at the front

00:51:56Of the field

00:51:57We have got it today

00:51:58It's really mixed up

00:51:59And Carson Quapel

00:52:00Is in a mix up right here

00:52:01Because he's been

00:52:01Hanging on for the last

00:52:02Couple laps

00:52:03This car has been

00:52:03All over the place

00:52:04I think there's a mix

00:52:05Of running in dirty air

00:52:07After having a lot of

00:52:07Clean air earlier

00:52:08In most of this race

00:52:09And also probably

00:52:10A little frustration

00:52:11As Ben and Jones

00:52:12Looks to the outside

00:52:13That's tight

00:52:14But he's definitely

00:52:15Hanging on right now

00:52:16Yeah and what's

00:52:17Frustrating about that

00:52:18Is he's been a contender

00:52:19To win

00:52:20Right

00:52:20He had a great car

00:52:21In practice yesterday

00:52:22He's been a contender

00:52:24Really like

00:52:24To win this race

00:52:26The whole time long

00:52:26Now here you are

00:52:27And you're most likely

00:52:28Your last set of tires

00:52:29And your balance

00:52:30Isn't where it needs to be

00:52:31It's almost the opposite

00:52:32Of his teammate

00:52:33Connor Zilich

00:52:33Who's kind of been

00:52:34Behind all day long

00:52:35Now he's on his

00:52:36Last set of tires

00:52:37And his car's as good

00:52:38As it's been all day long

00:52:39And I'll tell you what though

00:52:40Carson

00:52:40Giving it 100%

00:52:42Every single lap

00:52:43As he's

00:52:43He's wheeling it right now

00:52:44Every time I see that car

00:52:46It's wiggling around

00:52:46Whether it's the entry

00:52:47The exit of the corner

00:52:48It's all over the place

00:52:50Brandon's finally

00:52:53Going to get to that

00:52:54Right rear corner

00:52:55And Carson

00:52:56Pinched him last time

00:52:57But he's far enough

00:52:58Along there

00:52:58I think Carson

00:52:59Knows he's going to have

00:52:59To concede the position

00:53:01Here to Jones

00:53:02He just

00:53:02Looks like he has

00:53:03A better car right here

00:53:04As they run along

00:53:0640 laps to go

00:53:08And we're watching

00:53:09The battle for ninth

00:53:10Brandon Jones

00:53:11One of our dash

00:53:11For cash drivers

00:53:12The same for Carson

00:53:13Quapel

00:53:14Give the 20

00:53:14That spot

00:53:16Jesse has started

00:53:19To close this gap

00:53:21On Ryan Sieg

00:53:22Ryan had it almost

00:53:22To a second

00:53:23And Jesse has slowly

00:53:24But surely

00:53:25Cut that back

00:53:25As they run in

00:53:26Some traffic

00:53:27Jesse now made

00:53:28Big gains there

00:53:29Out of turns one and two

00:53:30Well that's what

00:53:30I was getting ready to say

00:53:31It just appears to me

00:53:33That the two car

00:53:34As they catch traffic

00:53:35That balance of the two car

00:53:36Is just a little bit better

00:53:37And as you watch

00:53:39Jesse loving the two

00:53:40Behind Ryan Sieg

00:53:41He continues to be able

00:53:43To just run just a little

00:53:44Bit lower through the corner

00:53:45Get a little bit of

00:53:46Clean air on the nose

00:53:47He's able to get through

00:53:48The middle of the corner

00:53:49Quicker and that's been

00:53:49The sweet spot for him

00:53:50All day long

00:53:51You saw in the bumper there

00:53:55The drivers in the top five

00:53:56And how many career

00:53:57Victories they have

00:53:58We've documented

00:53:59Ryan Sieg

00:54:00Trying to win

00:54:01For the first time

00:54:02In his career

00:54:02Jesse loved two wins

00:54:04And he likes to get it done

00:54:06At these tracks

00:54:07Where history is a big deal

00:54:09Earlier this year

00:54:10At Daytona

00:54:11Last year

00:54:12His first career win

00:54:13Coming at Talladega

00:54:14And today

00:54:15Maybe putting himself

00:54:16In position

00:54:17For a win

00:54:18At Rockingham

00:54:19How about the two

00:54:20Dylan

00:54:21And they've actually

00:54:22Been a little bit loose

00:54:23The last couple of runs

00:54:25But Danny Stockman

00:54:25The crew chief said

00:54:26It'll come to you

00:54:27And think it is

00:54:28As he starts to reel in

00:54:29The 39 car for the lead

00:54:31Also

00:54:31They are seven laps

00:54:33Short on fuel

00:54:33They pitted on lap 160

00:54:35Seat pitted on lap 150

00:54:36So do the math there

00:54:38I think it's going to be

00:54:38Tough for the 39

00:54:39But tough for the two

00:54:40Also to make it to the end

00:54:42Yeah though

00:54:43The two has the hope

00:54:44Is that he can get out front

00:54:45And then kind of manage the race

00:54:46And if you know the 39

00:54:47Is going to be that short

00:54:49You're really not even

00:54:50Going to have to worry

00:54:51About racing him

00:54:52If he's ten laps shorter

00:54:53Than what you are

00:54:54On fuel

00:54:55He's struggling though

00:54:57I know that

00:54:58We were sitting here

00:54:59We're driving it for him

00:55:00Right

00:55:00As you see him

00:55:01Get to the middle of the corner

00:55:02And having to chase it

00:55:03On the exit

00:55:04Of turn four

00:55:05A couple laps ago

00:55:06He's clearly quicker

00:55:07Than Sieg right now

00:55:08But he's just trying

00:55:09To get in the right position

00:55:10And I like this

00:55:11Trying to get to the outside

00:55:12Though it seems like

00:55:13That's a little bit

00:55:13Of an easier move

00:55:14As Dillon said

00:55:15It's been a little loose

00:55:16It was almost on cue

00:55:16That Jesse Love

00:55:17Got really loose

00:55:18Out of turn four

00:55:19Right there

00:55:19Wiggled the car

00:55:20All the way

00:55:20To the outside wall

00:55:21Really hanging on

00:55:23Inside that race car

00:55:24Now as Danny Stockman

00:55:25Said it will come to you

00:55:26Most likely he has

00:55:26In most of these runs

00:55:28He's been faster

00:55:28As the run goes on

00:55:29Sliding it out of turn two

00:55:31He's definitely quicker

00:55:32Than the 39

00:55:32Yeah working him over

00:55:35You see

00:55:35Seems like Jesse feels

00:55:36Pretty good

00:55:37Running the middle

00:55:38To the outside

00:55:39Of three and four

00:55:41But he's not generating

00:55:42The run

00:55:43The one thing we've seen

00:55:44All day long

00:55:45If he can go in there

00:55:46And pack some air

00:55:47On the left rear

00:55:48As he keeps

00:55:48Trying to work the top side

00:55:50He's going to turn back

00:55:51Down underneath him

00:55:51He's going to be

00:55:52In a really good position

00:55:53Right here

00:55:53As they get down

00:55:54Into turn three

00:55:55He can get to his inside

00:55:56Pack some air

00:55:57On that left rear

00:55:58So he can get the 39

00:55:58A little bit loose

00:55:59See

00:56:00Gives him plenty of room

00:56:02Good decision

00:56:03Right there

00:56:03By Ryan Sieg

00:56:05Sieg tried to shade

00:56:06Him down low

00:56:07There

00:56:07Tried to cover

00:56:08A little bit

00:56:08Down on the inside

00:56:09As Jesse's looking

00:56:10At the inside

00:56:10Into one

00:56:11Look at the sideways

00:56:12Gosh that turn one

00:56:15Angle is so

00:56:16It's so awkward

00:56:16For whether you're

00:56:18On the bottom

00:56:18Or the top

00:56:19It's like you just

00:56:19Can't tell where to go

00:56:21And Ryan does not

00:56:21Want to give up

00:56:22Here right now

00:56:23You can see

00:56:23He's fighting as hard

00:56:24As he can on the outside

00:56:25He crowded on the inside

00:56:26In the three

00:56:26The lap before

00:56:27He's going to

00:56:28Hold him off

00:56:29Using the outside

00:56:30Really strong

00:56:31By Ryan Sieg

00:56:31So what I want to know

00:56:32If I'm the 39

00:56:33I want my spotter

00:56:34To tell me

00:56:34What the balance

00:56:35Of the two car is

00:56:36Because if I know

00:56:37He's loose

00:56:38I'm going to let him

00:56:39Get to my inside

00:56:39And then I'm going to

00:56:40Crowd him

00:56:40Like you said

00:56:41I'm going to pinch him off

00:56:42Try to get that car loose

00:56:43But it just looks to me

00:56:44Like the two car

00:56:45Is quite a bit better

00:56:46Right now

00:56:46Yeah if he gets

00:56:47To the right rear

00:56:47Of Ryan Sieg

00:56:48It's game over

00:56:49For Ryan most likely

00:56:50In that sense

00:56:50He's got to just

00:56:51Let him have the inside

00:56:52And keep crowd him

00:56:53Take the air off

00:56:53And hope that he's not

00:56:55Able to complete the pass

00:56:55Two things that impress me

00:56:58One the dog

00:56:59In Ryan Sieg

00:57:00Right because he's

00:57:01Not giving it up

00:57:02He's fighting for everything

00:57:03And the patience

00:57:05Of Jesse Love

00:57:06Who had the presence

00:57:07Of mind to understand

00:57:08It's not the right time

00:57:10And he also understands

00:57:12As we have discussed

00:57:13So much

00:57:14The fuel mileage situation

00:57:15We're not sure

00:57:16100% who can make it

00:57:18And who can't

00:57:19But the reality is

00:57:20When you look at

00:57:21The top two

00:57:22We know that

00:57:23That Jesse Love

00:57:24Is in a better position

00:57:25When you look at

00:57:26Their last pit stop

00:57:27Than Ryan Sieg

00:57:28And the 16 of

00:57:30Christian Eckes

00:57:30We know they are

00:57:31Going after it

00:57:32He's third right now

00:57:33Kim

00:57:33What's their fuel situation

00:57:35Yeah remember

00:57:36Alex Johnson

00:57:37Crew Chief was one

00:57:38Of the first ones

00:57:38To say we're going

00:57:39To try and make it

00:57:40To the end

00:57:40And you've heard

00:57:41Dylan talk about

00:57:41Both Ryan Sieg

00:57:42And Jesse Love

00:57:43Being unsure

00:57:44And being maybe

00:57:45A little bit

00:57:45Actually certain

00:57:46That they're going

00:57:47To be short

00:57:47Unless we see

00:57:48Another caution

00:57:48That is not the case

00:57:50For the 16 of Christian Eckes

00:57:51You're seeing there

00:57:52On the right hand

00:57:52Of the screen

00:57:53It was about

00:57:5310 to 12 laps ago

00:57:55That the team

00:57:56Came on the radio

00:57:57And said

00:57:57You are good to go

00:57:59On fuel to the end

00:57:59So I'm not sure

00:58:00What kind of fuel savings

00:58:02That he's done

00:58:03To be able to garner that

00:58:04Or maybe they're just

00:58:05Using a different calculator

00:58:06But they have given

00:58:07Their driver to go ahead

00:58:08I think there's a little

00:58:09Bit of a sales job

00:58:10Going on right there

00:58:11Is what I think Kim

00:58:11I mean 10 laps

00:58:12Is a lot to make up

00:58:14And the engines

00:58:15In that two car

00:58:16And the 16

00:58:16Come from the same camp

00:58:18So it's not going to be

00:58:19There's not that much

00:58:21You can do at a track

00:58:22Like there's not heavy

00:58:23Braking at this racetrack

00:58:24I mean it's all

00:58:25Going to be really

00:58:26Based on lap time

00:58:27And as I look at

00:58:28Their lap time Parker

00:58:29They look very similar

00:58:30So I

00:58:31Either

00:58:32Either Danny Stockman

00:58:33Is not being honest with us

00:58:34Or Alex Yance

00:58:35Is overselling it

00:58:36To Christian Eckes

00:58:37And that's what I was

00:58:37Looking at

00:58:38Is he's sort of

00:58:38Falling back

00:58:39From the leaders

00:58:40Here the last couple

00:58:40Laps

00:58:41He's 2.6 seconds back

00:58:42I thought maybe

00:58:43He's saving in some respects

00:58:44Riding a little bit

00:58:45But his lap times

00:58:46Are exactly the same

00:58:46As the leaders

00:58:47There is the idea

00:58:48That maybe

00:58:48Some possibility

00:58:50Of fuel

00:58:50You know fill time

00:58:51And if they really

00:58:52Got these two cars

00:58:53Absolutely full

00:58:53Compared to Eckes

00:58:54But I find it hard

00:58:55To believe

00:58:55Considering looking

00:58:56At their pit stop times

00:58:57And how long

00:58:57They were there

00:58:58That these two cars

00:58:59Weren't put full as well

00:59:00Seek's doing a great job

00:59:01He's kind of mirror driving

00:59:02Is what I would say

00:59:03A little bit on Jesse Love

00:59:04He's going where he thinks

00:59:05Jesse Love needs to be

00:59:07But Adam I think you brought up

00:59:09A tremendous point

00:59:10The maturity of Jesse Love

00:59:12To not force the situation

00:59:14And not

00:59:14Not just right now

00:59:15But

00:59:16But throughout the race

00:59:17How

00:59:18How good of a job

00:59:19And how patient he's been

00:59:20And again

00:59:21You see lap cars

00:59:22Right ahead of these two guys

00:59:23Fighting for the lead

00:59:2420 has brought

00:59:25The two back into this

00:59:2724 laps to go

00:59:28And here comes Jesse Love

00:59:29Looking at the inside

00:59:31Again

00:59:32But not yet

00:59:34Just cannot get it down there

00:59:36And make it happen

00:59:37No and as we get

00:59:38Closer to the end

00:59:39We're going to have

00:59:40To figure out

00:59:41Ooh as you see

00:59:42Love

00:59:42Get loose right there

00:59:43And we get a caution

00:59:44Our 11th yellow

00:59:45Of the day

00:59:46Blaine Perkins

00:59:48In the 31

00:59:49Save me all the fuel

00:59:51You can

00:59:52Save save save

00:59:53Yeah

00:59:54Potentially be a right front

00:59:55For Blaine there

00:59:56It is a right front

00:59:57He had to go down

00:59:58On the entry

00:59:59To turn three

01:00:00We've seen that

01:00:02A couple times

01:00:03Some right front issues

01:00:04Typical of a

01:00:06Repayment time

01:00:06Sometimes those tires

01:00:07Get pushed really hard

01:00:08Especially if you have

01:00:09A tight race car

01:00:09You put a lot of load

01:00:10On that right front tire

01:00:11Take a look at

01:00:13The bright blue car

01:00:14Yeah

01:00:15That's a horrible feeling

01:00:17Those safer barriers

01:00:17Make such a huge difference

01:00:19You saw the wall

01:00:19Deflect a little bit there

01:00:20So fast at this racetrack

01:00:22And you just

01:00:23Those tires always

01:00:24Tend to blow

01:00:25At the highest load

01:00:26In the worst possible

01:00:27Place they can

01:00:28Perkins was 26th

01:00:31We've got 27 cars

01:00:33Now on the lead lap

01:00:34How much stress

01:00:36Do you think there is

01:00:36On that 39 pit box

01:00:37Right now

01:00:38I want to tell you what

01:00:38I'm stressed

01:00:39And I would say

01:00:40I would say

01:00:41It's a good news

01:00:42Bad news situation

01:00:43Good news is

01:00:44You get the caution

01:00:44You can save a little fuel

01:00:45Bad news is

01:00:47You're going to have to

01:00:48Go through a restart

01:00:49With Jesse Love here

01:00:50Right

01:00:51And that's going to be

01:00:52Tough to manage

01:00:52Yeah

01:00:53And what we've seen

01:00:54Is that

01:00:54Jesse Love has not

01:00:56Been able to

01:00:56To make that pass

01:00:57On the outside

01:00:58You know

01:00:59What lane do you choose

01:01:00It's a big decision

01:01:01For Ryan Sieg

01:01:02And can you

01:01:03You know

01:01:03I don't think

01:01:04I would want to give

01:01:05Jesse the inside

01:01:07On this restart

01:01:07No I wouldn't do that

01:01:08It puts you in a major

01:01:09Vulnerable position

01:01:10It's easy to use

01:01:11At the beginning of the race

01:01:12And earlier in the race

01:01:13But people are giving

01:01:14Each other more room

01:01:15But on a late race

01:01:16Restart like this

01:01:17Possibly for the win

01:01:18That inside car

01:01:19Has a ton of leverage

01:01:20To give you

01:01:21The hip check

01:01:22Through the center

01:01:22Of one and two

01:01:23And take advantage of that

01:01:24So if I'm Ryan Sieg

01:01:25The choice is easy

01:01:26It's the bottom

01:01:27You're just in control

01:01:28Of your destiny

01:01:28Just a little bit

01:01:29Lower being on the inside

01:01:31But the two has been

01:01:32Really good

01:01:32For one or two corners

01:01:33On the outside

01:01:34But I would say this too

01:01:35The caution now

01:01:36Tightens everybody back up

01:01:37You get a restart

01:01:39You're going to have

01:01:39A short run here

01:01:40And you got some

01:01:41Pretty good cars

01:01:42Back there behind them

01:01:43That now have an opportunity

01:01:45To make something happen

01:01:46Once we return

01:01:47To the green flag

01:01:47Pit road is open

01:01:48But here's the deal

01:01:49You just can't give up

01:01:51Track position right now

01:01:53No and what's interesting

01:01:54To me Parker

01:01:55As I watch these guys

01:01:56Kind of cleaning their tires

01:01:57They're not saving fuel

01:01:58Like when you shut

01:01:59The engine off

01:02:00There's no power steering

01:02:00It's hard to swerve

01:02:01Back and forth

01:02:02You see a few

01:02:03Of these guys though

01:02:03Taking a chance

01:02:04I'm shocked

01:02:04Taking an insurance

01:02:05You know my thought was

01:02:07This gets you over the top

01:02:09And if you're those drivers

01:02:10Up front you can't give it up

01:02:11But if you're someone

01:02:12That wasn't going to win

01:02:13Anyway

01:02:14Right

01:02:14I mean Carson Quapel

01:02:15Among them

01:02:16You say hey what

01:02:17I tell you what

01:02:17I'm going to come down

01:02:18And get service

01:02:19And make sure I can make it

01:02:20What's going on

01:02:22On pit road Dylan

01:02:23I think that's exactly

01:02:25It for a couple cars

01:02:26You see how tight

01:02:26It is on pit road

01:02:27There as these guys

01:02:28Pull in and out

01:02:29Of the pit boxes

01:02:29Parker Retzloff is in

01:02:31They'll put tires on

01:02:32They also had pitted

01:02:33On lap 150

01:02:34Which is the same

01:02:35As Ryan Sieg

01:02:36So just a little

01:02:37Insurance here

01:02:38To make sure

01:02:38That they do not

01:02:39Run out of fuel

01:02:40Zilich had pitted

01:02:41On I believe lap 160

01:02:43He did on lap 160

01:02:44So they'll come down

01:02:45And put tires on too

01:02:46As well

01:02:47And just try and salvage

01:02:48What has been a

01:02:48Very up and down

01:02:49Day for them

01:02:49And you mentioned it

01:02:51Jamie

01:02:51Sometimes you do

01:02:52Your numbers

01:02:52Looking at a

01:02:53Green light checker

01:02:54Possibility

01:02:55What if we get

01:02:55Multiple green light

01:02:56Checkers

01:02:56And we absolutely

01:02:57Could today

01:02:58That would make

01:02:58These cars

01:02:59In a great position

01:03:00In that case

01:03:01A little bit of

01:03:02Contact right here

01:03:02With Nick Sanchez

01:03:03And the 91 car

01:03:05Not bad

01:03:06It doesn't look like

01:03:06There was any

01:03:06Damage right there

01:03:07The composite bodies

01:03:08Have been a game

01:03:09Changer in all this

01:03:10So you have that

01:03:11Contact and it

01:03:12Pops right back out

01:03:13That might be the

01:03:14Lightest contact

01:03:14We've seen up here

01:03:15Today

01:03:15If the cars

01:03:16Have gotten contact

01:03:17Let's talk

01:03:18Dash for cash

01:03:19For a minute here

01:03:20And you look at

01:03:22The drivers up there

01:03:22In the top five

01:03:23That have a chance

01:03:24To get it done

01:03:25Junior Motorsports

01:03:26Represented by

01:03:27Sammy Smith

01:03:28Justin Allgaier

01:03:29Brandon Jones

01:03:30Right behind him

01:03:31From Joe Gibbs Racing

01:03:32But some question marks

01:03:34Maybe about how

01:03:36Things will go for them

01:03:37In regard to fuel mileage

01:03:38Carson Quapel

01:03:39Makes the pit stop

01:03:40He's going to

01:03:41Restart right around

01:03:4215th after we do

01:03:43The Jews

01:03:43But he knows

01:03:44He's good to go

01:03:45And he's got

01:03:46Fresh tires

01:03:47So

01:03:48And hey

01:03:49We know how

01:03:49Quickly things can

01:03:50Go away on a

01:03:51Restart here

01:03:51Right

01:03:52I mean you get

01:03:52Shoved out

01:03:53You're on the

01:03:53Older tires

01:03:54And it can go

01:03:55Bad in a hurry

01:03:56Yeah and I'm

01:03:56Gonna tell you

01:03:57If I'm Ryan

01:03:57Sieg

01:03:58I am telling

01:03:59NASCAR about

01:03:59All the debris

01:04:00I see on the

01:04:00Track

01:04:01That I might need

01:04:01A little sweep

01:04:02Here

01:04:03A little clean

01:04:03Up

01:04:03I'm gonna buy

01:04:04All the

01:04:04All the caution

01:04:05Laps that I can

01:04:06Get right here

01:04:07On this caution

01:04:07And if you're

01:04:11Christian Eckes

01:04:12And you talk

01:04:13To Alex Yance

01:04:13Right now

01:04:14Based on where

01:04:14They've been on

01:04:15Fuel mileage

01:04:15You get this

01:04:16Caution

01:04:16He's probably

01:04:16Saying we're

01:04:17Good for four

01:04:18Overtimes

01:04:18Don't worry

01:04:19About it

01:04:19He's been

01:04:19Saying all

01:04:20Day how

01:04:20Good they

01:04:21Are

01:04:21They'll be

01:04:21Running again

01:04:22Next week

01:04:22On the same

01:04:23Fuel load

01:04:23These are the

01:04:24Days that age

01:04:25Crew chiefs

01:04:26And family
