323 | The Lost Art of Road Course Racing Mar 25, 2024

Show notes

Connor Zilisch joins Brett Griffin, Freddie Kraft, TJ Majors and Casey Boat on Door Bumper Clear to recap his race at COTA. The hosts discuss whether COTA provides good racing, the number of track-limit penalties, and the on- and off-track incidents. Why are track limits so difficult for NASCAR to consistently enforce? What's the solution? Also, with William Byron being our first repeat winner of 2024, does that cement him as a NASCAR Cup Series championship favorite? Another hot topic was Chase Elliott's comments about participating in the next NASCAR Netflix show.
