The Garage Talk Notes always hope Fantasy NASCAR players get the information they need so they can accurately predict which driver will be up front in the race. The one thing the notes cannot do is predict which drivers will have their “Cage Rattled” this week. I expect a lot of beating and banging on […]

MENCS: Garage Talk Notes Watkins Glen
There are only five races left in the MENCS regular season. The action on the track always heats up at the series heads into the month of August. Drivers who are on the playoff bubble will likely continue to play it safe and score as many Stage points and finishing points as possible. Drivers on […]
MENCS: Garage Talk Notes Pocono
The Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series will be back at the Tricky Triangle this week. It will be the second race at the track in the last 8 weeks. I guess that is better than having two races at Pocono in two days, like we will have next year. The first race was a snooze […]
MENCS: Garage Talk Notes New Hampshire
The Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series will travel to the Granite State to compete in the Foxwoods Resort Casino 301. This will be the first race at a track smaller than 1.5-mile since the beginning of May. The races at the “Magic Mile” are always fun to watch. The Foxwoods Resort Casino 301 can be […]
MENCS: Garage Talk Notes Kentucky
The MENCS tried to give the fans some Saturday night racing last week and Mother Nature did not cooperate. They will try it again this week at Kentucky Speedway. This is one of the fastest 1.5-mile tracks on schedule and the added grip at night time should add even more speed to the cars. The […]
MENCS: Garage Talk Notes Chicago
The MENCS will return to the Heartland Sunday for some exciting racing at Chicagoland Speedway. The race at this track was one of the best of the 2018 season. I expect the same this week. This track is bumpy and wears out tires because of the harsh winters in the Midwest. Pit strategy and getting […]
MENCS: Garage Talk Notes Sonoma
The MENCS will compete at Sonoma Raceway this week in the Toyota / Save Mart 350. This will be the first of three road courses for the MENCS. The cars will be back to 750 HP engines and the aero ducts will be removed. The cars may be the same as last year but the […]
Garage Talk Notes for Michigan
The MENCS will compete at Michigan International Speedway this week in the FireKeepers Casino 400. The series will once again use the 550 HP engines with the 2” splitter, 8” spoiler and aero ducts. It is the same package used in the last three races (Kansas, Charlotte and Pocono). The FireKeepers Casino 400 can be […]
MENCS: Garage Talk Notes Pocono
The MENCS will race the 550 HP engines with the 2” splitter, 8” spoiler and aero ducts for the first time at Pocono. The Tricky Triangle has the longest straightaway in NASCAR so we can expect a lot of drafting this week. Most of the NASCAR teams are approaching this race like a Superspeedway race. […]
MENCS: Garage Talk Notes Charlotte
Find a comfy place on the couch because you will be there a while this week. The MENCS will compete in the longest race in motorsports. The Coca-Cola 600 tends to get boring after 400 miles but that will not be the case Sunday. The new aero package has provided some of the best racing […]
