I thought the sign was great. Both parties should see it. I also want more heckling and booing. I'm serious. Going to trial was avoidable if cooler heads prevailed on both sides. That didn't happen. The fans will suffer. The taxpayers will pay for the trial. All so some rich guys in...

You misspelled "money"

Something I thought of this morning.... with few exceptions, the world of oval racing has contracted the past 15 years. At every level, drivers and teams have been asked to do more with less year after year. Hamlin is one of the last drivers that was here for the peak of NASCAR. Seems like he...

The server going down is proof the shills were running this place the whole time! Can't spready any bad PR and NASCAR needs all the $$ they can get for legal fees!

Did Ferrari change their paint to orange?

That was my first thought. It's not every decade an established series takes a shot at creating a stock car league. The entire press release also reads like it's taking shots at NASCAR. Astronomically strange given the timing with the lawsuit.

The value equation is just not there for sedans. Pre-2005, an SUV was a gas hogging V8 aerodynamic box with wheels. The fuel economy benefits aren't worth it for many people anymore. Sedans don't suck, SUV's just got better and cheaper than they once were.

Genuine question- do these texts change your opinion on NASCAR management and how they run the sport?

"our fans don't read" someone get that on a t-shirt. No wonder NASCAR wanted to settle. These guys must've turned pale as ghosts when they learned their internal comms would/could be released. Win, lose, or draw this court case there's going to be an executive shakeup of epic proportions...

5 texts from Phelps explicitly call out Childress. "taken out back and flogged" is also one hellova quote. That is a wild way to be texting in any context, let alone a work context, let alone the fact its executives that rely on team owners to have a sport. Also I find it hilarious that the...

Wow. Wow. Wow. Wowwwwww. None of this is incriminating but holy ****. A couple dozen texts is all it takes to blow up any future for the sport THEY OWN (for now). -it reads like even they're surprised at how well the last TV deal went and explicitly say they're ****** for the next one...

You mean Richard "Did I tell you he's an idiot" Childress.

Yeah... that doesn't paint NASCAR in a good light at all. The hatred for corporate executives also couldn't be any higher than 2025.

After the Xfinity field went bonkers over "as fast as Xfinity internet" for $600 a pop, I say we give $5,000 to the 20th place driver at halfway and let the mid-pack absolutely go at each others throats. I'd imagine it would devolve into kill-the-carrier. NASCAR could get a GUARENTEED caution...
