Hopefully MBM will bring the #72 with Hill or Long driving to get us to 40 cars. 2. jensenators posted: 09.26.2017 - 4:55 pm Rate this comment: (0) (0) Based on the eligibility rules, the 15 will probably change too. Reed Sorenson is declared for Cup points, and has more then 5 years experience. 3. 95McDowellFan posted: 09.26.2017 - 5:44 pm Rate this comment: (0) (0) Technically he only has 4 full-time cup seasons, don't know if he's eligible or not 4. JSPorts posted: 09.26.2017 - 5:47 pm Rate this comment: (1) (0) I think the rule is applied to people who have run for Cup points 5 years or more. If that was the case, Sorenson is currently in his 10th season. 5. Jonathan King posted: 09.26.2017 - 6:18 pm Rate this comment: (0) (0) More than likely Matt Mills will be in the 15. 6.

Jonathan King posted: 09.27.2017 - 10:07 pm Rate this comment: (0) (0) At least Dakoda isn't in the chase, so it is not as big of a deal as it could have been. 13. JR-TV posted: 09.29.2017 - 8:34 am Rate this comment: (0) (1) Hopefully the MBM #72 or the King #92 show up to get us to 40 cars. I think every xfinity race this year has had 40 cars. It would be weird if it didn't happen for this race. It seems like it is worth it for teams to enter an extra car in xfinity when the field is short. 14.

George posted: 09.29.2017 - 2:03 pm Rate this comment: (0) (0) Reed Sorenson & Corey LaJoie are Cup drivers only in the loosest sense of the definition, and I doubt that anyone who rails against Buschwhackers would mind very much if one of those two won the race tomorrow. The other 5, permitted by rule though they may be, would just be more of the boring old same same old if they won (either the 18 or 20 are massive favorites to do just that). If the #20 just HAS to win the race, which it will if the 18 doesn't, then why not let Ryan Preece drive it? If he's busy elsewhere (racing mods on Sunday @ Stafford and probably wants to focus on that, but it's not all that far from Dover) then let someone like Drew Herring get a shot for all the loyal work he's done. 16. 95McDowellFan posted: 09.29.2017 - 3:12 pm Rate this comment: (0) (0) Gray Gaulding in the #38, 3rd RSS Car 17. rm posted: 09.30.2017 - 1:11 pm Rate this comment: (0) (1) Ross Chastain puts it in the final round of qualifying! His best start since 11th at Bristol in the spring, which is tied for his best career NXS start. 18.

A RSS Racing start and park ride. 19. 42Fan posted: 09.30.2017 - 3:16 pm Rate this comment: (0) (0) Harrison Rhodes blows up big time 20.

Such a boring race. Not sure why Dover has two races (espicaallhy how Talladega only has one). I guess i set my expections too high for dover. Please bring back Milwaukee. This race sucked. 26. supernova1 posted: 09.30.2017 - 5:04 pm Rate this comment: (0) (0) Sponsor updates #15 - Meding's Seafood / Iron Source #22 - Fitzgerald Glider Kits #33 - Anderson's Pure Maple Syrup / Safeway #42 - Broken Bow Records / Dustin Lynch 27.

I'm guessing you missed when the cars were battling for positions the whole race. 28. rm posted: 09.30.2017 - 6:35 pm Rate this comment: (0) (0) 13 also dropped to the rear, as a start and park I'm assuming it was by driver choice. Nice run for Tifft, who had a flat tire in qualifying and had to drop to the rear of the field to start the race. He was hit from behind by David Starr while checking up for the first caution of the day and slowly worked his way up all the way to 6th at the finish despite rear bumper damage. This tied his best non-road course finish of the year and this was his third straight top 10. 29. 23andJoe posted: 09.30.2017 - 7:49 pm Rate this comment: (0) (0) #27: Don't worry. Everyone knows that the only important metric to avoid absolute boredom is "last corner lead change and photo finish". 30. joey2448 posted: 09.30.2017 - 9:37 pm Rate this comment: (0) (0) "Zzzzzzzzzzzz...
