The NASCAR Playoffs started with a bang, with the first round race at Darlington Raceway this past week. More than half the playoff field ran into major trouble with incidents on the track. With the exception of a couple of drivers (Kevin Harvick and Martin Truex Jr - who were able to recover), those other drivers now have the added pressure of needing to win to advance into the next round. 

The summer movie season concluded this past weekend with the release of MARVEL’s newest superhero franchise Shang-Chi..where there was an unexpected NASCAR reference by actress, Awkwafina. So no better time than for another installment of 6 Degrees of NASCAR.
