Transcript
- 0:00All right, what's up everybody, Charlie Marlowe here.
- 0:02Happy early Easter. Wanted to jump on quick, do a
- 0:06really quick live stream. I promise it won't be long.
- 0:09We won't go super long on this one, but did have some breaking
- 0:12news. Don't have a ton of information
- 0:15yet. So look, the headline reads,
- 0:19Jesse Love disqualified, Sammy Smith wins at Rockingham.
- 0:24This basically dropped just in the last, I don't know, 10-15
- 0:28minutes. I was on X just looking at some
- 0:31stuff and I noticed that the NASCAR Xfinity series on all
- 0:37their posts were following up their their previous posts about
- 0:41the wins for Jesse Love with an update.
- 0:44So here it is. This is right from NASCAR
- 0:48Xfinity and it reads news. The number 2 car has been
- 0:53disqualified following post race inspection at Rockingham
- 0:58Speedway for issues pertaining to the rear suspension.
- 1:03Sammy Smith has been declared the winner of today's race.
- 1:08So there you go right there and really not a ton of news about
- 1:13exactly what happened. I was looking at some different
- 1:16reporters to see if anybody had more information.
- 1:18I went right to nascar.com as well.
- 1:21I'll I'll take you there. Their headline is Sammy Smith
- 1:24takes Xfinity Series victory in Rockingham return Love
- 1:27disqualified and it's pretty much the same deal, says Junior
- 1:31Motorsports driver Sammy Smith picked up the NASCAR Xfinity
- 1:35Series victory at Rockingham Speedway after Richard Childress
- 1:39Racing's Jesse Love was disqualified in post race
- 1:42technical inspection for issues on the rear suspension.
- 1:47So that means with with Jesse Love being dropped now from the
- 1:54winner to 38th place. So you have Sammy Smith of
- 1:59Junior Motorsports winning. That means you have Parker Retz
- 2:02laugh in second place. Then you got Harrison Burton,
- 2:06Brendan Poole and Taylor Gray in the top five.
- 2:09We'll go top 10 here. You got Austin Hill, Josh
- 2:12Williams, Jeff Burton, Daniel Dye and Jeremy Clements in the
- 2:17top 10. We'll go to the unofficial race
- 2:20results. Obviously, the big story of this
- 2:22one too was Kasey Kahne got involved in that wreck.
- 2:26So this is before, this is before the update of Jessie Love
- 2:31winning. Kasey Kahne finished 15th, so
- 2:35that should be a 14th place finish for Kasey Kahne.
- 2:38You probably saw he got caught up in that wreck with Catherine
- 2:42Leggy as well. But so Catherine Leggy finished
- 2:4738th, but she'll bump up because again, Jesse Love will be 38th.
- 2:52But Kasey Kahne was able to get back in the race and finish all
- 2:57the laps, all 256 laps and finished with a with a 15th
- 3:02place finish, which will then turn into a 14th place finish
- 3:06with the DQ to Jesse Love. So just want to jump on pretty
- 3:11big news in the NASCAR world. I was actually watching.
- 3:15Well, I was going back and forth because at the end of that
- 3:17NASCAR race you had so many cautions and whatnot and I had
- 3:22the the Blues game. I live in Saint Louis, so the
- 3:25Blues, Winnipeg Jets first round playoff game.
- 3:27I was going back and forth and it's kind of funny because I
- 3:30also saw Dale Junior had a pretty funny had a pretty funny
- 3:34quote tweet. It was just a :) obviously his
- 3:37driver, Sammy Smith is now the winner at Rockingham after Jesse
- 3:42Love was DQ D And again, all we all we have for the DQ, all we
- 3:50have for the DQ is what I told you before, which is just the
- 3:55rear suspension issues. That's all it says.
- 4:00Failed tech inspection for issues on the rear suspension.
- 4:04So I'm sure we'll hear more. Could there be appeal?
- 4:08An appeal? We'll find all that out a little
- 4:11bit later here. And like I said, I won't go too
- 4:15long on this one. Do have a lot of people
- 4:16watching. 249 people watching. I appreciate that.
- 4:19Charlie Marlowe here. Yeah.
- 4:21Kasey Kahne, my goat, greatest of all time.
- 4:24That's from corn. Dogger says.
- 4:26Kasey Kahne, 14th now. And yeah.
- 4:30What'd you guys think of the race, by the way, at Rockingham?
- 4:32Pretty cool. Just just cool to see Rockingham
- 4:36back with a NASCAR national series race.
- 4:40I thought, I thought that the track put on a good show for the
- 4:42two days with the trucks with ARCA and all that.
- 4:45Just kind of cool to see the rock and the campgrounds and all
- 4:50that filled up and a a good sell out crowd as well for the
- 4:53Xfinity Series race. We'll see if if cup, you know,
- 4:58Kenny Wallace was kind of hinting he thinks cups going to
- 5:01be at Rockingham in 2027. So we shall see if that ends up
- 5:06being the case. So I'll check out some more of
- 5:10your comments here real quick. Like I said, I always say I'm
- 5:14not going to go too long and I won't, but I'll I'll go a couple
- 5:17more minutes here. Let's see.
- 5:19Sherry Parker says the rock was great surprise it wasn't
- 5:25promoted more. I feel like they did a pretty
- 5:27good job right. I mean, with with with this
- 5:29being the only Cup weekend, the only Cup weekend from now, I
- 5:34mean, you have the All Star race, but there's there's no
- 5:37breaks in the cup schedule for the rest of the season now.
- 5:41This was the only break for Easter.
- 5:43So to basically showcase Xfinity and the trucks at Rockingham and
- 5:50have it be the whole show and have Kasey Kahne be such a big
- 5:54part of it as well. He was kind of the obviously the
- 5:57story of, of the race leading up to it.
- 6:00I thought that was really smart, just the way they marketed it.
- 6:02I don't know. Do you guys feel like it wasn't
- 6:04marketed well enough? I, I feel like I heard a ton
- 6:07about it and I thought the broadcast was good again.
- 6:10I think the track looked good at the end.
- 6:13It got a little crazy, right? It's funny because I was, I was
- 6:16flipping back and forth again. You're watching on The CW
- 6:19network, and the show that was supposed to air is Big Bang
- 6:23Theory, and it's just kind of funny when you have Big Bang
- 6:25Theory, then you have the big bangs literally happening on the
- 6:28track to create all the craziness at the end and the
- 6:32overtime finish. Yeah, ARCA as well.
- 6:34I said ARCA, didn't I? Yeah.
- 6:36You had. You had Trucks, you had ARCA,
- 6:39and you had Xfinity, obviously. But the big story here is the
- 6:44headline, which is Jesse Love, who was your winner.
- 6:47It's one of those weird scenarios, right?
- 6:50It was kind of like Denny Hamlin at Pocono.
- 6:53Was that a couple years ago? Was that?
- 6:55I believe that was 2022. Correct me if I'm wrong, but
- 7:00it's just kind of crazy when you have the winner, they go to
- 7:03Victory Lane, they get the trophy, they have all the
- 7:07pictures and all that, right? This is, this is happening
- 7:10essentially about 3 hours after the after the race is over, this
- 7:15news breaks. So everybody goes home from
- 7:17Rockingham thinking Jesse Love is the winner.
- 7:21And then if you're checking your phone or maybe you go went to
- 7:24bed early or waking up, whatever it is, take a nap.
- 7:27Maybe you're passed out after drinking at at the Rock.
- 7:30And then you see, oh, I went to victory land.
- 7:32I saw Jesse Love was the winner. Oh, no, actually, he's not the
- 7:36winner. He's DQ D rear suspension
- 7:39issues. And Sammy Smith is actually the
- 7:42winner of the Xfinity Series race at Rockingham.
- 7:46And again, we'll see if there's appeals and all that, but that's
- 7:48the news of the night right there.
- 7:51Yeah. Corndogger also saying that that
- 7:54was 2022 for Denny Hamlin. Also Parker Klinkerman at
- 7:58Daytona Trucks. Yeah, another, another
- 8:01situation. I'll put that up right there.
- 8:05Yes, yes, yes, yes. And Derrick Wallace says, Dan,
- 8:08goodnight for the copyrighted 8. Ain't that the truth.
- 8:13A nice little joke there about the Lamar Jackson story that we
- 8:16talked about a couple weeks ago. So, yeah, there you go.
- 8:22I'm not going to go too long. Thank you for tuning in, though.
- 8:25Got 313 people watching live with the big news.
- 8:29And Robbie Walker says, Charlie, thank you for the update.
- 8:32Yeah, I just figured, you know what?
- 8:34This is pretty big news. I know it's not Cup, but still,
- 8:36it's always alarming when you just look at your phone and the
- 8:39person you think everybody thought won the race actually
- 8:42didn't. And they change it up so they'll
- 8:44be more on this. Obviously, we'll see exactly
- 8:46what happened, but all we're getting from NASCAR right now is
- 8:50rear suspension issues. Tell you what, let me just check
- 8:54X one more time. I'm going to check X one more
- 8:57time to see if there's any new news 'cause I don't know if some
- 9:03some reporters have followed up here.
- 9:05Maybe there's some new information.
- 9:07Let me just let me just go through real quick, real quick.
- 9:11Yeah, Dustin Long already saying Sammy Smith declared Xfinity
- 9:14winner at Rockingham after Jesse loves car fails inspection,
- 9:18blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. Matt Weaver.
- 9:21Matt Weaver's really good at his job and he actually contributes
- 9:24on our channel here. So we had an interview with
- 9:26Kasey Kahne from Matt Weaver last weekend.
- 9:28We had a couple of Dale Junior, Dale Earnhardt junior interviews
- 9:32from Matt Weaver at that race at Georgia.
- 9:36So Matt Weaver says the number 2 has been disqualified for
- 9:38violating rule 14 dot 14.2 dot I-5 dot H You following me
- 9:49there? Which is all mating surfaces
- 9:52mating. All mating surfaces between the
- 9:55truck trailing arm and EU bolt saddle must be in complete
- 10:01contact with each other. So it says the number 19 has
- 10:06also been DQ D for violating rule blah blah blah blah blah.
- 10:09That's a lug nut issue. But this is coming from Matt
- 10:12Weaver. So Matt Weaver saying that it's
- 10:14this particular rule. It's rear suspension we know,
- 10:18but it is all mating surfaces between the truck trailing arm
- 10:22and EU bolt saddle must be in complete contact with each
- 10:26other. So that's some pretty inside
- 10:29baseball or inside racing there with these specific specific
- 10:34rule. And it looks like we're getting
- 10:37another update. So NASCAR, Xfinity, I believe
- 10:40they said earlier they said that that Jesse Lowe would be 38th
- 10:46place. They're now saying the number 2
- 10:48has been dequeued and being credited with a 37th place
- 10:52finish. Sammy Smith is now the winner.
- 10:55So either way, Sammy Smith wins Jesse Love to the back of the
- 11:00field. We said that bumps up Kasey
- 11:02Kahne from a 15th to A to a 14th.
- 11:05Everybody else moves up. And I'm just going to go through
- 11:09real quick one more time just to see if anybody else has weighed
- 11:13in with new information. That Matt Weaver information was
- 11:15good because it was more specificity on the rear
- 11:19suspension. Yeah, OK.
- 11:21It looks like it looks like NASCAR is is releasing this
- 11:24information. You got Toby Christie also with
- 11:27the same rule. They're basically saying yeah,
- 11:32all mating services between the truck trailing arm and EU bolt
- 11:36saddle must be in complete contact with each other.
- 11:41So there you go. I'm trying to find the the Dale
- 11:45Junior the Dale junior quote tweet for you guys.
- 11:52Look at this Dale junior. This is 32 minutes ago.
- 11:56So he just has a nice little :) right?
- 12:00There's the information, his driver wins.
- 12:03Dale Junior just has a nice little emoji of a :) earlier,
- 12:08also Dale Junior. And I think, I think we can all
- 12:11agree on this. He says, I hope Kasey Kahne runs
- 12:17several more pavement ovals. I want us all to live forever.
- 12:23How about that? Don't you want to see Kasey
- 12:25Kahne run again? Especially the fact, look, he
- 12:27had a chance to win that race until he got caught up in that
- 12:30wreck. He was running what he was
- 12:33running. When I first started watching
- 12:35that race, he was like 7th, 6th. You guys tell me, did he get up
- 12:39to 5th? I feel like, and I wasn't
- 12:42watching the entirety of that race, but I feel like early on
- 12:45he was running about 7th, 6th. I think I saw him get to 5th.
- 12:49I'm not sure if I saw him get beyond 5th, but Kasey Kahan was
- 12:53having a nice run with a chance maybe to win until you got
- 12:57caught up in that wreck, but still was able to finish a lot
- 13:00of damage on that. On that right front of that
- 13:04hendrickcars.com 33 good looking car.
- 13:07Obviously looks like the Kyle Larson car out there.
- 13:11All right, so 324 of you watching.
- 13:15I appreciate all of you will put this on podcast.
- 13:18Also, if you're watching, please hit the like button for us, hit
- 13:22that subscribe button if you haven't.
- 13:24We appreciate that and I'll just let you know what's going on.
- 13:26So Easter tomorrow, I'm guessing Kenny Wallace will come out with
- 13:30a with a coffee with Kenny, especially with this big news
- 13:33with the DQ. He was also at Rockingham with
- 13:36Ken Schrader Thursday and Friday doing autographs.
- 13:39They're at the truck race and all that.
- 13:42And then also we have Ward Burton.
- 13:43We have Kenny conversation with Ward Burton.
- 13:47I think it's like 75 minutes long.
- 13:48We'll release that tomorrow. So if if Kenny Wallace does a
- 13:52coffee with Kenny, we'll put that out first and then we'll do
- 13:54Ward Burton later in the day. If the morning happens and Kenny
- 13:58decides, hey, it's Easter, I want to spend time with my
- 14:00family, which is totally cool. Obviously, if he doesn't do the
- 14:02coffee with Kenny, I will put the Ward Burton out there pretty
- 14:06early in the morning tomorrow. So there you go you guys saying
- 14:11thanks for the update, good time.
- 14:15I appreciate that. Let's see.
- 14:18And what Aleutian said. Aleutian says he said with all
- 14:23the damage, he was good for 15 to 20 laps before the arrow
- 14:27died. You talking about Kasey Kahne
- 14:29there? Yeah.
- 14:30Ward Burton. Ward Burton coming up tomorrow.
- 14:32That should be good. No, it is good.
- 14:34I shouldn't say it should be good because I edited it and I
- 14:37listened to it several times. It is very, very good.
- 14:40He's a really interesting dude. Obviously won some huge races.
- 14:43Daytona 500. What?
- 14:45Southern 500 super outdoorsy has this Wildlife Conservation
- 14:52foundation that he's really involved in.
- 14:55It's really, really interesting. So there you go.
- 14:57I'll tell you what I'm just going to go ahead and and recap
- 15:00it one more time just cause some people coming in now we got Bo
- 15:04Dean asks me recap what happened.
- 15:07So I'm just going to say it one more time basically Jesse love
- 15:11disqualified. So Jesse Love wins the race you
- 15:14think goes to Victory Lane, all the celebrations, the interviews
- 15:17and all that, But Jesse Love DQ D for rear suspension issues,
- 15:23which means Sammy Smith of Junior Motorsports wins the race
- 15:28at Rockingham, the Xfinity Series race at Rockingham.
- 15:32And I will one more time. I'll give you the exact rule and
- 15:37we'll go to Matt Weaver, my guy, because Matt contributes on this
- 15:40channel, does a great job providing us with content.
- 15:43He's all over the place covering short track and NASCAR really
- 15:46good reporter. And so 11 more time.
- 15:48Matt Weaver says the number 2 of Jesse Love has been disqualified
- 15:53for violating rule 14 dot 14.2 dot I-5 dot H, which is all
- 16:00mating surfaces between the truck trailing arm and EU bolt
- 16:03saddle must be in complete contact with each other.
- 16:06And again, so in layman's terms, rear suspension issues and I'm
- 16:13sorry, Jimmy says, Jimmy says I'm at 63 laps to go Spoiler,
- 16:20Sorry about that. Some people complain about that,
- 16:22but I feel like nowadays you can't go to YouTube and social
- 16:26media if you're trying to record the race or a sports event.
- 16:29I get it. I get I do that myself
- 16:31sometimes, but I don't think you can go to YouTube and X and then
- 16:34complain about spoilers. We try our best, but we got to
- 16:37get the news out there as well, right?
- 16:39So yes, Parker Retts laugh got second.
- 16:41Then Bob White Bread, yes, Parker Retts laugh got second.
- 16:46I'll just go real quick one more time.
- 16:49I'm repeating myself. But we have new people in here.
- 16:51So Sammy Smith, now your winner. Boom.
- 16:55Parker Retts laugh. Second top five, you got
- 16:57Harrison Burton third, Brennan Poole 4th, Taylor Gray 5th, and
- 17:02then the top 10, Austin Hill 6, then Josh Williams, Jeb Burton,
- 17:07So the Burtons, both of them in the top 10.
- 17:09Daniel Dye and Jeremy Clements completing the top ten.
- 17:14And also Justin Bonsignore, also DQ D from the race as well, he's
- 17:20with Joe Gibbs Racing. So there you go.
