This episode is the latest from NascarFansView.com and JustAFansView.com and is a production of PodCastNorm dot Com with host Rusty Norman. It gives Rusty’s opinion of the Cheez-it 355 at Watkins Glen International Sunday afternoon August 6, 2016. The Glen International is another legendary track on the NASCAR circuit. It is a track with lots of history in different styles of Racing as well as Stock Cars and it is a fast Road Course track, 2.45 miles in length and seven turns. Because it is a particular challenge for the drivers and one of the fastest Road Courses, it does make for interesting and intense racing. Like any other NASCAR Cup race, there are a lot of drivers to choose from to pick as a winner, even more than there used to be. This particular one is another special one because it is Tony Stewart’s last one, he is retiring at the end of this year and Jeff Gordon is once again filling in for the recovering Dale Earnhardt Jr. Consistent lap times, getting in and out of the pits with no problems or penalties and a strategy that maintains good track position throughout the day will once again result in sitting in Victory Lane. A Road Course like this one at The Glen always seems to make for some great racing right down to the Checkered Flag if for no other reason than anything can happen. As a general rule, it is a race where there is always the chance of a Big surprise and a lot of drama right down to the drop of the checkered flag, especially if it becomes a fuel mileage race which is quite likely although not a given. These article/podcasts are usually once weekly podcasts and sometimes twice when events warrant it during the NASCAR season (which generally runs from February through the middle of November.)
