    NASCAR on USA 2025

    Bubba's late race charge came as a total shock to me too. I didn't know he was on the lead lap, or even back on track until I saw him blow by the 9 on the scoring pylon. Race broadcasting as a whole for ever and ever has been bad about keeping viewers up to date on stories like this, and cars...

    Bonehead of the Week: Indianapolis

    Well, Mark Martin agreed with me, so I'm fine with my take. That's as much validation as I'll ever need.

    Katherine Legge

    Legge is not a bad driver. At her age and her limits on seat time, the ceiling is rather low, but she has ability, and she is BRAVE. That wreck she had at Road America in an Indy car would have been the end of the road for most of her detractors, and ANYBODY that drove that F'ing Delta Wing...

    Bonehead of the Week: Indianapolis

    The last sentence says it all. Allgaier and Larson may not be "official" teammates, but make no mistake, they ARE, and Larson needs to try a little harder to Protect his teammates. Of course we all know how he has treated Elliott in the past, so I guess we shouldn't be surprised.

    Bonehead of the Week: Indianapolis

    Larson is the "greatest driver in the world", but somehow he's always out of control and getting himself or somebody else in trouble driving over his damn head. For somebody so great, he sure seems to have trouble finding the limit of his car without creating a mess.

    Bonehead of the Week: Indianapolis

    I'll nominate Larson for being Larson for the thousandth time. Just because he's on "my" team doesn't mean I wouldn't love to choke the crap out of him half the time. Justin is a FAR classier guy than I would be.

    Bonehead of the week: Dover

    That decision to take two certainly left ME scratching my head. In my mind, you do two tires for ONE reason, track position, and if you already had one of the fastest cars and you're not just trying to steal a good finish, then two tires better get you the lead. Since it couldn't get them the...

    2025 In-Season Tournament

    The Winston Million and the No Bull 5 were pretty big deals back in the day. I also liked the old deal where if you won from the pole you got all the money in the pot and it rolled over every week. Before the first Brickyard 400, Bill Elliott winning the Million was probably the biggest media...

    At least Habba understands what state she lives in and that her father is not her husband.

    23XI statement on not signing Charter agreement

    In the Bill France Jr era I would have sided with NASCAR 90% of the time. My opinion of NASCAR management since then is SO LOW that I would LOVE to see them have their ass handed to them in this lawsuit, but I don't think that's going to happen. Maybe the owners will do a better job of not...

    2026 Silly Season

    Thinking you're something doesn't make it true OR pay the bills. I think Daniel is a decent driver, but if I'm looking for a new driver, I'm looking towards some of the raw new talent in Xfinity or trucks instead of a retread Cup driver.

    2026 Silly Season

    I think Jr. would be more than happy to run Daniel if he brings enough money. JRM seems fine with running as many cars as they can adequately fund, full or part time.

    I think Kyle picked the wrong, (or maybe right depending on how you look at it) time to throw shade at Chase. The results have definitely been vastly improved the last three weeks, but three weeks doesn't make a season. Let's see what happens between now and playoff time.

    2026 Silly Season

    Put Suarez in Connor's car at JRM next year and let him be Allgaier 2.0. It seems like it wouldn't be THAT HARD for Daniel to scrounge up Xfinity level funding, and it would probably be a good fit all around.

    Hendrick Motorsport News

    I honestly believes he cares about winning races and championships. Beyond that, I don't think he cares one bit about the whole dog and pony show, and I'm FINE with that. I'd far rather he be authentic then try to be Jeff Gordon or whoever.
