Episode 78: Chicagoland – God Hates Us Racing in Chicago NASCAR returned to Chicagoland Speedway , and what a weekend it was. From wild restarts and strategy calls to weather threatening to change everything, we're breaking down all the biggest storylines from NASCAR's return to one of the sport's most popular intermediate tracks. In Three Wide , we dive into NASCAR's decision to remove foam from the front and rear bumpers for the remaining short-track races at North Wilkesboro, Richmond, Bristol, and Martinsville. The goal? Make drivers think twice before using the chrome horn by increasing the likelihood of aerodynamic damage after contact. Will it improve the racing, or just create new problems? We also discuss the growing trend of Sunday Night Racing . With six races scheduled under the lights this season—including Atlanta this weekend—we debate whether the primetime starts are a win for television audiences or a headache for fans who have work Monday morning. Plus, we check in on the NASCAR In-Season Bracket Challenge and look at who still has a shot to take home the title. Finally, it's time for Call Your Shot as Chris, Rick, and Chad lock in their winners for Atlanta. Will they go with favorites like Ryan Blaney, Chase Elliott, Denny Hamlin, Joey Logano, Kyle Larson, Tyler Reddick, Chase Briscoe, Austin Cindric, Brad Keselowski, or Carson Hocevar? You'll have to tune in to find out. Join us for another episode full of race analysis, laughs, debates, and plenty of "What the Heckers?" moments as we recap NASCAR's return to Chicagoland Speedway in Episode 78: Chicagoland – God Hates Us Racing in Chicago .
