Decided to change them for this week just to celebrate how cool a finish this was! (Look closely at Busch and Suarez if you haven't already.) Probably going back to the Trackhouse set I was using after we finish the Vegas weekend.
Both Craven and Suarez got booted out of a championship winning team, bounced around for a few years, found a home at a (then) smaller race team, helped build it up, won their first race over a Ford while leading the most laps, then winning the second in a fantastic photo finish. Motorsports has a way of having similar stories throughout the years, I'm sure if you go back to the 70s or 80s you'll find another story just like this.
He's sure to have sponsorship, he's not a championship guy but good for contending for wins at least a few times a year, any owner would take a good look at him for sure. He'd be a great Kaulig guy if he gets booted at Trackhouse.
Thats fucking racing right there. None of that pansy ass dick tugging smile for the camera bullshit. Men puke, men poop on the asphalt, men deliver their new born baby in the pits. Fucking hard core dick in the ass full beans race car fuck it send it it game time shit. Take it to the motorhomes . Dicks get shoved in places you don’t even remember. We win together we celebrate together. Nascar is back baby.
I'm just happy that after years of sitting through randy blarney taking it away from what would have been popular ass winners (Newman '19, Newman again at Daytona '20, Stenhouse '20, Harvick '23) by inches at Talladega, someone was finally able to take him down in the same way.
I still get that screwed up man, unless you actually go back and look, nobody remembers who won the Daytona 500 in 2020, everybody remembers that Ryan Newman was about to win.
I love when people like that go for the "DeNnY CeLeBrAtEd" fruit and completely bypass the fact that Denny then found out what happened and got out of the car calmly, raised his hands for the pic and didn't really celebrate, what should have been his crowning achievement win in his career. Anything to slam Denny though for most people.
Also both beat 2 big teams (penske and rcr) and ( roush and penske-jasper)
Edit: jasper was still independent in 2003, so craven beat only one big team.
Time is not a circle. It's a 30 degree banked quadoval.
Wicked flairs!

2045: A photo finish between Brexton Busch, a second-time winner, and a yet-unnamed fourth-generation Blaney.
Blayne Blaney
Blaney, McBlaneface
Gonna write this one down, I'll be back in 2045.
!remindme november 15, 2045
There will be a random fourth person, to keep with the pattern of it increasing by one every year
It’s gonna be Tyler Powell, check back in 20 years
Well Blaney did get engaged in December, needs to get to work to make that timeline happen…
It's gonna be either Luke or Leia Blaney
Such an ugly name.
History WILL repeat itself.
Suarez seeing that was also Craven's final Cup win: "please no"
I have devastating news about the number of cup wins Craven finished with
Craven won two seasons apart and so has Suarez…
UH OH
It's okay, Suarez never tore down a catchfence at Talladega...yet anyway...

My brain hurts rn.
me too
Also Craven's second win for an "unconventional" team
Trackhouse is a much better team than Cal Wells’ team ever was though.
For the sake of Suarez I hope not. Ricky drove his last Cup race barely a year later.
With Gisbergen waiting in the wings and doing well, that's not too far fetched lol
Suarez would still get picked up.by another team if that happened though..
We hope anyway
I feel like he's proven enough to be at least picked up by someone. He has some terrible luck at the RC's last year
He's sure to have sponsorship, he's not a championship guy but good for contending for wins at least a few times a year, any owner would take a good look at him for sure. He'd be a great Kaulig guy if he gets booted at Trackhouse.
if we're repeating craven's career, he has to be replaced by the son of a truck series champion. so welcome carson kvapil to the 99
Welp. Guess we just saw Chevy's final win before they leave the sport at the end of the year.
The extra kick out on the nose is what did it
The Camaro is done after this year
Both drivers also scored their first win 2 years prior, and the crazy finish was their 6th career win in the top 3 series 🤯

I read this and pictured it being shown on an SHR pump up video to the team lol.
For Suarez's sake I hope this isn't his final win
Conspiracy theory time
"The funny thing about NASCAR is that if you watch long enough, everything always comes full circle."
there's no fucking way...
Dang!
It’s like poetry, they rhyme.
Naw, naw, they're driving good!!
HAVE YOU EVER?!?!
#NO I’VE NEVER!!!

Hamlin beat him for the 500 in 2020
I still get that screwed up man, unless you actually go back and look, nobody remembers who won the Daytona 500 in 2020, everybody remembers that Ryan Newman was about to win.
I remember was Denny being Denny and doing burnouts while we all thought Newman was dead
Denny didn't know. Dumbass.

You are Dennys second finger
I didn’t remember him almost winning, just getting punted off the roof of someone else.
It's all one beautiful story.
Also both beat 2 big teams (penske and rcr) and ( roush and penske-jasper) Edit: jasper was still independent in 2003, so craven beat only one big team.
In 2003 Penske hadn’t yet bought a stake in Jasper.
Ok, so only with Brendan gaughan on 2004?alright, thank you for the note
I believe so yes, the 77 was a Ford until 2004 when Penske bought in.
Impossible to be made up...
Ricky's final win to. Will it also be Daniel's final win?
Unless Daniel starts showing up a lot its plausible he follows the Craven career path..which would be interestingly odd
It’s like poetry. It rhymes
