On this week’s Frontstretch Happy Hour, hosts Dalton Hopkins, Michael Massie and Caleb Barnes are joined by Elijah Burke, manager of digital and social media for RFK Racing.
The quartet discuss the growing popularity of watching old races now that NASCAR Classics is uploading them in high quality. Could more exposure to classic races lead to change in NASCAR? Is nostalgia-fueled change good or bad?
The guys also talk the four-wide racing that happened in the NASCAR Cup Series race at Talladega Superspeedway on Sunday (Oct. 6). Though it was manufactured by fuel saving, was it still good racing or not?
The ending of Talladega was marred by numerous controversial calls or no-calls by NASCAR officiating. The Happy Hour gang offers solutions to these problems.
The four then predict which drivers currently below the Cup Round of 8 cut line (Joey Logano, Daniel Suarez, Austin Cindric and Chase Briscoe) will advance.
In the bonus segment, in honor of Burke’s creative content with RFK, the quartet each name their dream NASCAR content they wish they could make.
