You know, it wouldn't hurt to show ALL the Sportsman final rounds. Take out 3 minutes of interviews and we could all see who won in the rest of the categories and even have time to explain what the category is all about.

We viewed taped version yesterday, it was nice to see the Stock final though I'd guess if it wasn't for the big wheelstands it wouldn't have made the program. We must have fast forwarded right past Jenner. My guests are so tired of hearing drivers name their sponsors each time they get the microphone that many times they fast forward us right past the next pair. Nice to see Fletcher continue his winning ways in Comp. If they want to do an in depth interview there is one, almost all his wins have been by driver skill and dial expertise, and even the losses when a competitor is near perfect, rather than being able to out run the competition.

How about Kevin McClellan winning S/G? He won it 20 years ago in the same car.
That would have made a good interview, too.

Couple of observations about the FS1 broadcasts...pretty much same as last year but big plus for showing the Stock final (way to go Larry!) and putting Bruno in the booth. The fuel show was the usual BS but Bo sure put an exclamation point on his 2017 Championship. Bit disappointed in the little Pro Stock qualifying dustup between Laughlin and Gray...it's a curse to grow up rich I suppose.

Showing the finals of stock was epic... I wish FS1 had went back and found out about the 3 engines KB Racing broke..
