Track Schmak

Here are some excerpts from the live stream watching of the final race at Phoenix, 11/8/20, including a flashback to our old show in 2014, when we discussed Chase Elliot as an 18 year old rookie. Final Schmak standings for the year: Lozell: 10 Coach: 9 Rob:6 See you next year!

We Schmak the happenings at Texas and Martinsville, and take a quality detour into Denny Hamlin's new Dominos commercial: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y5xMr9Me2ZY Filmed from a phone pointed at the TeeVee. Picks for Phoenix: Coach: Denny "Nice PJs" Hamlin Lozell: Kevin Harvick (?) Rob: Chase Elliot Note: we all think Brad Keselowski is going to actually win, but we have reasons for picking others. Check out the podcast to find out why!

Unlike the race, the Schmak this week was completely rained out. But we did make picks for next week at Martinsville: Rob: Denny Hamlin Lozell: Bubba Wallace Coach: Brad Keselowski

We Schmak the frustrating end to last week's Kansas race, talk about silly season driver moves, and make our picks for Texas. Picks:  Lozell: Denny Hamlin (again) Coach: Kevin Harvick (again) Rob: Chase Elliot (again)

We Schmak a few things here and there. Who (or what) will be Clint Bowyer's FOX booth buddy? What's the deal with Kyle Larson's statement timing? Picks for next week: Coach: Harvick Rob: Mar... no, Ham.. no Mart... no, Denny Hamlin! Lozell: Brad Keselowski

We talk Richmond - was it as boring as Dover? Nope. We clarify the Cup Driver racing in Xfinity, and a surprising Cup driver who did indeed race in the Friday Xfinity race at Richmond (not to be confused with Saturday's Xfinity Race), Daniel "Miguel" Suarez future, and a bunch of other stuff I don't remember right now. Picks for Bristol: Rob - Denny Hamlin Lozell - Chase Elliot Coach - Brad Keselowski

It's a long one, but a good one. Two Times at Dover, and once at Daytona. Seven Time becomes a No-more-times.  Lots of good topics, but stay for the post-pick special topic! I needed to get this recording out quickly, so fewer edits on this one. Picks for Darlington: Coach: Kevin Harvick Rob: Denny Hamlin Lozell: Brad Keselowski

Another Double Header weekend up ahead - weather looks cloudy but not super rainy, so they might get both races in.

We couldn't stay away! Alternately, we couldn't plan ahead well enough and get all our picks in for 2 full weeks of racing last week. Underglow - what did you think? We're pretty unanimous in our opinion. Picks this week - who passes on the odds on favorite at Texas, and who completely mis-reads their notes and picks their Texas driver for Kansas.?  Ward Burton apparently had some fun with a snake in his tractor garage.  All this and a tiny bit more, this week on the Schmak. Picks for Texas: Lozell: Kyle Busch Coach: Kevin Harvick Rob: Denny Hamlin Picks for Kansas: Coach: Chase "the finger" Elliot Rob: Kevin Harvick Lozell: Truex Jr.
