Do it "drag & drive" style 100 laps @ Bowman Grey, Greenville Pickens, Hickory, Wilkesboro with finish at Bristol. Teams unload cars at BG "race" then head toward Bristol. The cars get DRIVEN to next track. Each car gets one chase vehicle with spares. If has to be towed/trailered, DNQ.That depends on one's personal definition of better.
To me, that means having all 36+ cars on the track at the same time, running a distance or time long enough to require refueling and tire changes. There are plenty of tracks that fit those criteria, although many won't appeal to that segment of the fan base that wants to run on 'legacy' tracks.
I think running Cup cars on a track this small doesn't show the best capabilities of cars, drivers, or teams. Like LA, it's a venue chosen more to tear up cars than as an exhibition of what they can do.
Just one opinion. Others will vary. No big deal.
They've brought in bunch of Yankees from Minnesota or somewhere up in the war zone with all their equipment. They'll have the snow cleaned up inside two hours.Limited resources and the entire state will be affected. Hospitals and hardest hit areas will be prioritized. There's more on the line statewide than a single county's race.
Forecast looks like 3-6 inches ending Saturday evening. Sunday calling for 30-40 mph winds. The problem is gonna be snow drifts and getting there. NC snow removal sucks. Im betting its moved to Monday or Tuesday with a early start.
Yeah, you lost NASCAR right there. Nobody gets refunds, just credit for another race.
When they had to move the Coliseum race to Saturday because of weather, they gave everyone refunds.
It’s not unprecedented.
They should borrow some studded tires from WRC and make it happen .
Didn't get the heats back.
BTW this is bullshiit.
Looks like the first Blizzard Warning to ever be released in ENC is coming shortly.
Some bullshiit.
The only walking around I plan to do is taking the dogs out and servicing the bird feeders. Hopefully neither activity will take me more than 50 feet from the door. The dogs will be taken out the front door; that side is downwind so hopefully there will be less accumulation in the front yard.Honestly that’s sweet though. I haven’t seen a true blizzard up here in years, it’s really something just to walk around in

6PM Eastern; how many affiliates will preempt in favor of local programming? Commercial time during local news is already sold (paid for?).That said kudos to FOX for keeping it on the main network.

We got nothing here. Barely a flurry. But we in "the dry slot" says WRAL.We got 6-8 inch here in T-Ville and its gonna continue for another couple hours. They under estimated this storm.
