10-16-18 NASCAR America

Hosts: Carolyn Manno & Parker Kligerman from the Stamford Studio. Dale Jarrett from the Charlotte Studio. As the Playoffs head for Kansas, only Aric Almirola and Chase Elliott are safe. And as we’ve seen in years past, big names have entered the Round of 12 cut race with good points cushions - only to meet with disaster and elimination. Which driver above the cut line should be the most worried? Marty Snider is at Stewart-Haas Racing with a report on how they’re looking to have all four of their drivers advance again in the playoffs. Plus - he talks 1-on-1 with Aric Almirola’s crew chief, John Klausmeier, about how the #10 team is preparing for the Round of 8. Almirola and Co. are riding high, but Brad Keselowski and the #2 crew are in big trouble. A 3-week series of unfortunate events have put them 18 points behind the cut line. Can they find a way to save their season? Steve Letarte talks with their champion crew chief, Paul Wolfe. And we’ll take one last look – and listen – to last weekend’s wild finish that shook up the playoff picture in Scan All Talladega. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
