Cup RACE thread --- 600

Overturn that precedent. Waivers should only be for when you miss a race due to circumstances beyond your control. Getting suspended is within your control.
Nascar has seen what happens if he’s out. Think they want that for the playoffs? It’s NOT FAIR OR RIGHT, but money talks. I’m just waiting to see what media has the stones to call it out.
 
5 car is taking big swings, but even under the hood, they can't get the front to unload, definitely did something with the front end this weekend lol

Sounds like from following on Twitter and then on here 5 was experimenting some
 
I mean are we really not gonna wait until the SMT data comes out? Suspend him if it was on purpose but there's nothing confirming that as of now, everyone is just freaking out cause that's what happens when Elliott is involved in literally anything.
 
He was suspended for assaulting Larson, not the wreck imho
“Our actions are really specific to what took place on the race track,” O’Donnell told host Dave Moody. “And when we look at how that incident occurred, in our minds, really a dangerous act. We thought that was intentional and put other competitors at risk. And as we look at the sport and where we are today and where we want to draw that line going forward, we thought that definitely crossed the line and that’s what we focused on in terms of making this call.”

This isn't a Chase thing. This is a gen 7 thing. If this was the COT or gen 4 there wouldn't be an uproar.

But with there being so much pushback about safety with this car, any right hook retaliation is going to make fans lound.

The "woe is Chase" card doesn't play in this case. And if it does, we can't know. Because the precident is that right hooking someone is outrageous.

If the data shows it was intentional I hope NASCAR is consistent, thats all I want.
 
Don't want to get banned when just joining the board, but WOW Xfinity is going to be nuts. Think about the change in conditions those cars will experience.
Why is this a ban worthy comment?

Oh come on awesome Bill let's hear it 😁.

I don't want to invite someone to be an a**hole just to be an a**hole but pretty much any opinion is welcome here

I’m trying to be rational, but the optics are REALLY, REALLY bad on this one. I’m siding with the anti-Elliott mob here

Now I know what I'm dealing with 😂 I've been on boards where you're only supposed to talk about the titled thread. I mentioned Xfinity.

Oh, so NOW you’re taking NASCAR’s word as gospel? 🤣. Jk man. Rough, rough weekend here.
 
Not suspending Chase would be a PR nightmare for NASCAR. They suspended a black driver for that exact same thing.

The path of least resistance to suspend Chase for a week and give him a playoff waiver. I would be very surprised if he didn't win before the end of the regular season, which would render the penalty meaningless anyway.
 
This is the most frustrating part. There’s a section of the fanbase that is truly racist and give us a black eye. But that makes it so you can’t criticize him without being branded with the Scarlet R. Both extremes are wrong.

He already has his wavier for his broken leg.
