Carson Hocevar Still A Work In Progress
4 hours agoAlthough Carson Hocevar failed to replicate his second-place starting position from last year's Southern 500, his 13th-place starting position on Sunday is still pretty solid, and the speed he had last year suggests there is a chance he will have speed on Sunday, even though he fell off quickly and failed to score any stage points in that race. Although Darlington is a finesse track and Hocevar is not a finesse driver, he usually does get away with his overdriving and has had very impressive runs, especially in the Craftsman Truck Series, where he has a better average finish than he's ever had on any track he's competed at more than once. However, the fact that he qualified 13th raises expectations. Although he'll likely someday lead at the track, it probably won't be until he lands a faster car, and he'll likely finish worse than he starts on Sunday.
