Hello, Motorsports friends. donspiracy here.

Somehow, Terry's Peeps was able to take the wheel of the pick 'em contest and win it! Total coincedence.

I really do apologize for my absence in this section and on the board in general. 2016 really got busy and the weeks of Nascar and football action kept getting bumped down the priority list.

Monster has taken over as the NASCAR title sponsor. Now the garish yellow of Sprint can be resigned to the history books. It was confusing for the average fan to see that color and not have it associated with stoppage of action. Dumb! Thanks to the good people over there for kicking in that 50 million a year though.

As for the races themselves, the action on the track will be broken into three segments. Stage 1 and 2 will be the same as a 1st and 2nd quarter of the race. The last half of the race will be the Final Stage and playoff points will be given out for winning all three stages.

Also, skypoints and RIP to "The Chase". Now the playoffs will be called, wait for it, The Playoffs. I bet Monster spent a Bears GM search amount of money to figure that out.

There will be a full season contest this year and will even be doing a world renowned RaceLog for the Rolex 24 Hours of Daytona this weekend.

I've been really out of the loop. I just noticed the other day that Cousin Carl hung up the old fire suit.

They also have made it, if you wreck your car, can't come back into the race like in years past.

I found that weird. Also I guess he's pretty private and never really said why.

I don't know that he ever said but I assumed it's because he's a multi-millionaire that could easily do TV for the rest of his life and not die in fiery car crash.

I thought maybe a problem with his team or owner and he's sitting a year. Just pondering.

Could be. I don't know.

I just assumed all the TV work he'd done in recent years was laying the groundwork for what he really wanted to transition to.

Soon to be boarding a plane that is Daytona bound. Will post a contest thread when I get situated this evening.

May even have to fire up the ol' twitter account to humble brag, ERR, give complete quality coverage of this week's race events.
