    Silly Season 2025

    Denny's relationship with FedEx was much healthier than Kyle Busch's with Mars. Busch and Mars butted heads over his behavior on several occasions. That probably also gave Coach reason to not try to hard to find one for him, especially with grandkid Ty Gibbs waiting in the wings. I think...

    Enough Is Enough Full Season Championship.

    Simplest fix would be to bring back the minimum points standing requirement to be in the playoffs. I'd favor 20th but would accept 25th. But see my earlier posts about NASCAR not returning to earlier models. Doing so forces one to publicly acknowledge having made a mistake.

    Enough Is Enough Full Season Championship.

    Logano is a champion according to the rules under which he raced, the same as every driver that's preceded him in every other series. Running up front most of the year isn't a criteria. I don't like those rules either but teams have to call strategy based on how titles are awarded. What...

    Backing in

    Here's one to chew on now that the off-season has started. Within the last decade, people have started backing their personal vehicle into parking spaces more than they did the first 40 years I was driving. I've always found the street to be wider than my driveway, and parking lot lanes to be...

    I hope they do too but I don't expect anything substantial. I'd love to know what was said last week in the meeting with manufacturers. I don't know of anything that's leaked yet.

    Chevrolet next year?

    Check the part highlighted in brown. It specifically says 'Camaro ZL1'.

    He's agreeing with you. Not every post is a challenge, even from SOI.

    Lots. Qualifying, points systems, technical specs, and restart procedures have changed several times. How many times have they changed back to a previous standard, especially after 20 years?

    Enough Is Enough Full Season Championship.

    We can want what we want. To me, the frustration is with those who can't accept that we aren't going to get it. I can want to eat a whole 16" double pepperoni pizza three days a week and not gain weight, but that won't happen either. No problem waxing poetic about the good ol' days but no...

    =If= they tried, they got caught. The car eventually passed to NASCAR's satisfaction, before and after. The system worked, at least as much can be expected.

    What did you think of the Martinsville call?

    Probably realized they didn't have a leg to stand on.

    Why Not Have a DoubleHeader on Championship Sunday

    Can we have the trucks run clockwise? Thank you. Hopefully that slap will return me to sanity, or at least as close as I normally come of it.

    The people who will have to want to make the changes are nowhere near the edge. Toss out all the stats you want but there are $7.7 billion reasons between those people and the cliff.

    2025 IndyCar News / Misc

    Currently it's the only venue in SoCal hosting national touring auto series (IndyCAR and IMSA). Remember, Roger was the original owner and builder of Fontana. He could see owning another SoCal asset as a decent investment. =IF= Roger =is= interested in adding NASCAR, it wouldn't necessarily...

    I was already to disagree but I checked. In the playoffs he had six finishes of 20th or worse, two of them DNFs. I wouldn't say he was slow yesterday; he finished ahead of 32 other cars.

    I don't see drivers having to change their individual styles much =IF= total points came back. The change would be in how crew chiefs call race strategy. Top fives and top tens would regain importance.

    All any driver can do is put himself in position to take advantage of someone else's mistake.

    Just think, some poor PR flack who was grateful to get his first job has been living in professional Hell every Sunday afternoon.
