Tempers exploded at Martinsville, and Sam Mayer may have taken things a bit too far. After multiple run-ins with Jeb Burton, Mayer decided to settle the score post-race, sending both cars into the wall and then doubling down in his interview with some pointed words. Now, the big question is whether NASCAR will let him race at Phoenix or make him sit out. Meanwhile, Taylor Gray scored his first Xfinity win, and the Truck Series lineup for the title race is set, but not without some major controversy of its own. And before we dive into that, don’t miss this year’s Groovy Hollow special – a spooky, fun deep dive into NASCAR’s weirdest Halloween traditions, ghost tracks, and eerie moments from the past.

  • Was Mayer’s move against Burton payback or pure recklessness, and how severe will NASCAR’s penalty be?
  • Can Taylor Gray’s first win under Ty Gibbs’ ownership signal a new power duo in the Xfinity ranks?
  • Corey Heim’s dominance has been historic, but does the one-race finale format make a mockery of his season?
  • With Kaden Honeycutt, Ty Majeski, and Tyler Ankrum in the mix, who really deserves the Truck Series crown?

Martinsville delivered chaos once again, but the aftermath may shape Phoenix more than anyone expected. Between Mayer’s meltdown, Burton’s threat, and a Truck Series title fight that feels upside down, there’s a lot to unpack before we get to championship weekend.
