Chase Elliott added to his family's winning legacy at Talladega Superspeedway on Sunday with a victory in the GEICO 500.

On this week's Hard Left Turn podcast, Brandon Reed, Pete McCole and Amy Henderson have a look at several items from Talladega, including:

-Chase Elliott made the final pass for the lead with four laps to go, and scored the win one day after his dad, Bill Elliott, won a vintage car race at Road Atlanta.

-The Chevrolet teams finally worked together to beat the Fords and Toyotas at their own game.

-The aero package gave us lots of passing and charging through the field, but it seems the cars need a little more stability.

-It wouldn't be Talladega without a couple of wicked crashes, now would it?

-We also take a few minutes to preview this weekend's action at Dover.
