The Coca-Cola 600 is back and better than ever! We had 3 straight days of great racing and it is all covered here. We discuss everything from Carson Hocevar coming so close to that 1st win, JR Motorsports continuing their domination of the Xfinity series, and Sundays wild 600 mile race. Sundays race was the longest in NASCAR history and I still wanted more. With how great the racing was at Charlotte I go over what that should mean for the All Star Race and Texas Motor Speedway. We also go over the comments by both Ryan Preece and Carson Hocevar after the two wrecked at the end of the truck race. We also look ahead at the upcoming weekends races as 2 of the 3 series head to new tracks. So much is covered on 3 Wide you don’t want to miss a second of it!

Back to the Drawing Board

The 2nd All Star race at Texas has concluded and it had plenty of people talking, unfortunately for the wrong reasons. Ryan Blaney was able to leave a million dollars richer, but had to overcome a questionable caution and a battle with his own window net. We go over the exciting Open race and the All Star race and all the controversy at the end. There was also Truck and Xfinity action Friday and Saturday as we cover each race and the surprise winners from those series. I give my take on what I think would fix the All Star race and advice from members of the sport as well. Coming up is Memorial Day weekend as we observe those who gave it all for us to have the freedoms we do and honor them at the upcoming Crown Jewel race, the Coke 600.

Feuds on Simmer

After an unexpected wild weekend of racing we look over the action from all 3 series. Corey Heim got his second career wins and looks to be ready for the jump to full time competition while Hailie Deegan finally turns up the aggression on the track. We also look at the wreck involving Carson Hocevar and what can be improved in safety response. The simmering feud between Noah Gragson and Ty Gibbs continues to slowly heat up in what is sure to be a battle in the playoffs. And AJ Allmendinger goes from off track pre race to victory lane post race as we look at his busy day. Joey Logano came away with the win Sunday but the story of the day was Ross Chastain and Denny Hamlin mixing it up with some assistance from Chase Elliott. We discuss why that it would be in Chastains best interest to tone down the aggression as he looks for a deep run in the playoffs. As always before I sign off I put the spotlight on some deserving drivers this week and look ahead at the upcoming race at Sonoma including the truck series first visit since 1998!
