2017 NASCAR Monster Energy Cup - ISM Connect 300

It maybe Game Day for football fanatics in America but the Monster Energy NASCAR Cup race is all about drivers looking for some serious oval racing action and in New Hampshire, which is the case of the ISM Connect 300 race, this is no exception to the madness NASCAR delivers.


In this second race of the Playoffs, 16 drivers fought for the chance to have two more opportunities to advance to the round of twelve.

In the 10th lap, Ricky Stenhouse Jr. started this playoff race getting into the wall again, causing this race to restart. In lap 75, Martin Truex Jr. claimed his 19th stage win and that helps him advance through the round of twelve. In Lap 149, all hell broke loose when Kevin Harvick's car went out of control and went out in smoke, causing a major crash in New Hampshire. Still, the #18 car managed to thread the needle and ends up the stage 2 winner. In Lap 217, the #88 suffered some left rear damage but Earnhardt Jr. keeps on going. In Lap 262, Kasey Kahne's car is facing some problems that need to be fixed at the pit stop, presumably the tires.

After 300 laps of mayhem in New Hampshire, Kyle Busch wins the race, making his third win of the year.

Next race is at Dover for the Apache Warrior 400 race on the 1st of October.
