On this week’s Happy Hour, hosts Trey Lyle, Michael Massie and Caleb Barnes are joined by frequent guest John Newby, senior writer at Savage Ventures and AltDriver.com.

The quartet dive into the wreck between Corey LaJoie and Kyle Busch. Was NASCAR right in not assessing LaJoie a penalty for the incident?

The guys also talk about how Tyler Reddick has come up short in a lot of recent races. They then get into the lack of NASCAR Cup Series opportunities for some of the top prospects, as it seems Austin Hill, Corey Heim and Chandler Smith will move up next season.

The gang discuss the new tire options that will be raced at Richmond Raceway in August and what factor those could play in the racing. Finally, in honor of the return of the Brickyard 400 this coming weekend, the guys name what thing they would like to see return to NASCAR.
