    Bad Brad finally gets a Nationwide win in Vegas, Kyle was second in another Toyota then Kyle Larson 3rd. Good clean race, a few spins and some great saves!!!!!

    Yep, just watched Keselowski say the motor was going away! But it held on just enough to hold off Kyle.. Kenseth had a nice "save" too...

    Good race!

    Kenseth's save was dang near phenomenal!!!! Easy save, done it hundreds of time on a dirt track.....Can't imagine what it's like at about 160+ coming out on the bottom of the turn!!!! Little luck but a lot of driving, too!!!!!

    And both Keselowski and Chase Elliot missed hitting him by inches! He was lucky for sure..

    I was glad to see that Kyle had to work to get to second and not run away with it. He started at the back and in 3 laps was in the top ten! Amazing!

    I also noticed all the empty seats.. wonder how long NASCAR can keep this up with no one in the stands?

    Never are many spectators at a Nationwide or Truck race.... Sprint, Nationwide Insurance, Camping World and associate sponsors pay the bill for NASCAR, money from the seats goes to the track owner.....

    But if the track owner ain't making a pay.. how long can it last? 5 years ago even the Nationwide series ( or whatever name they used then, Busch series I think) would've been at least 2/3 rds full..

    HMmmm.. Kyle looks strong right now!
