It was a busy weekend in the Irish Hills as the NASCAR Cup Series ran a double header at Michigan International Speedway.

Our Hard Left Turn crew is set to look at all the news and views out of the weekend, including:

-Kevin Harvick became the first driver to sweep two NASCAR Cup Series races on the same weekend since Richard Petty did it back in 1971.

-Harvick, Denny Hamlin and Brad Keselowski cemented their spots as contenders for the championship with just four races left in the "regular season."

-Ryan Blaney's bad luck hits again - this time with help from a teammate.

-Silly Season is in full swing.  We'll look at the latest news.

Plus, we'll preview NASCAR's first Cup Series event on the Daytona International Speedway infield road course.
