What’s Happening?

Joshua Lipowski and Dale Tanhardt discuss an interesting Truck Series race at Kansas. While many of the favorites are still the favorites and a few underdogs had nights to be proud of, some drivers continue to disappoint. Lipowski and Tanhardt dive into all of that in the most recent episode.

• Lipowski and Tanhardt run up and down the interesting finishing order from Kansas. One driver who shone bright was Bayley Currey, with a career-best 4th-place finish. Tanhardt gives a bold prediction on the future of Currey in NASCAR.
• The pair also discuss the disappointment of Layne Riggs. Is it a Riggs problem, a team problem, or a Ford problem? Lipowski believes it is a combination of two of those three factors, and it opens up an interesting discussion about Ford as a whole. What is going on with Riggs and the Ford teams?
• The two then preview Darlington, a race dominated one year ago by Christian Eckes and Corey Heim. However, Cup Series veterans Kyle Busch and Ross Chastain are hoping to spoil the fun on Friday night. Can anyone beat Kyle Busch or Ross Chastain?
