Well, unless I’m being pranked, this looks a lot like Roger Penske with Bob Sargent at the @MKEmileNASCAR , where there’s an @racewithstars @MidwestTour race happening today 65 miles from where his @IndyCar is racing at @roadamerica. This ought to heat up the rumors.

- Racing plans laid out for @natalieracing Decker for 2019 in @NASCAR_trucks, @NASCARHomeTracks K&N and @ARCA_Racing. From @JournalSentinel: bit.ly/2rds1rT
- Tough guy @mkeadmirals hockey player gets help from a Grand Rapids @griffinshockey opponent he's never met to get home for the birth of his first child in #MILHockey. Fun story from @TheAHL
- Cool to see @mattkenseth back in a race car Wednesday at @SlingerSpeedway , preparing for July 9 #slingernationals. We'll have more coverage -- specifically geared to the Nationals -- in the Sunday paper, but this'll tide you over:
- This is mind-boggling. It took @roadamerica and @IndyCar all of 5 days to put together a doubleheader and push back a weekend for an big #Racing event, from idea to announcement. Read: bit.ly/2TqMYOs from @journalsentinel for details.
- Wonder why the Conor Daly car ISN'T red and white with Lilly graphics as planned for months? Comments from Daly's dad, Derek, (from before Conor were born) came up this week and Lilly was afraid it'd be a distraction. The statement will be on JSOnline.
- Catching up with @RGrimaldi23 of @mkeadmirals @PredsNHL, who could have sulked this year but instead has scored a bunch, led a turnaround, mentored, built toward another @NHL opportunity and worked on his master's.
- Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but no @NASCAR_Trucks at @MKEmileNASCAR in '25. @wistatefair board chairman points to TV, expresses hope for future. (I'm not so sure.)
- I'm reminded today of what @TylerReddick said so eloquently at @roadamerica the day before scoring his first Cup win: “Doing a Chicago street course is a great idea. But getting rid of Road America is not the way to do it.”
- I've covered @F1 and @IndyCar at @IMS. I've covered a bunch of races at #SlingerSpeedway. Never imagined covering @AussieGrit, @TonyKanaan, @paultracy3, @ErnieFrancisJr, etc. at Slinger. Thanks, @SRXracing and welcome to 2021.
- It's strange to reminisce with someone who's all of 30, but @GrahamRahal has memories of @roadamerica that go way back, and he has room for at least one more. Hint: The @IndyCar #REVGroupGP is Sunday. (Also, this will be @courtneyforce first visit.)
- Y'know how we've said the @IndyCar double at the Milwaukee Mile #MKEMile at @wistatefair needs an active sponsor *like* @HyVee has been at @iowaspeedway? Now hearing the Iowa-based grocery chain actually will be title on MKE 8/31-9/1 as well.
- It will be 25 years Sunday. Wonder how #nascar might be different if Alan Kulwicki was still around. ow.ly/uQgn30jfhUY
- Alan Kulwicki gotten a lot of love 25 years after his death. We're pretty Kulwicki-centric in my part of the world, but I sure hope Davey Allison gets the same sort of treatment in July.
