Summary

With Devin missing his first show in three years, you have to settle for Doug and Dan. They break down the O'Reilly and Truck races at Rockingham and discuss how sizing up anyone but the dominant drivers is difficult. They examine what Algaier's stage points say about the O'Reilly standings and how much parity there is in the Cup Series. They also discuss Cleetus McFarland's O'Reilly debut and Doug explains why he thinks the whole thing is being seen the wrong way. They also give grades - good and bad - to Cup teams with 20% of the races in the books.
