    2024 Bommarito Automotive 500 @ Gateway

    Palou and Dixon done before it even began, assuming there'll be no passing... which... why would you expect anything else?? I am off Saturday so I will just be excited to watch Xfinity/NXT/Indycar... first live races for me in a month or so.

    I love how he got into modifieds after his Cup career! Super cool to see!

    Scott Bloomquist

    Terrible news. RIP. He was one of the best who did it. I got to see him race on dirt the first time ever this summer, so glad I did. Naturally I got to thinking about Ted Christopher. Small plane crash 9/16/17, dies age 59. Scott Bloomquist passes on the anniversary minus one month, at...

    Silly Season 2025

    A 43yo with ~5 oval wins across all three series in a whopping 600 starts... well... good luck.... If nothing else, his career is very very interesting.

    Enough Is Enough Full Season Championship.

    Yes but with no playoffs, I bet Dillon finishes 3rd, or perhaps punts Logano and then finishes 2nd to Denny. In some ways Dillon is a "victim" to NASCAR's playoffs. I doubt he wants to wreck 2 guys for the lead, but when that's his only shot at the Playoffs, he's gonna go for it. He's not a...

    Enough Is Enough Full Season Championship.

    F1 makes that amount seem like peanuts and their media partners don't seem to care. 2019 was the last time the World Series went to game 7. At the beginning of the season I too thought that a full season championship in NASCAR would never ever come back. Now I think it's at least worth a...

    Enough Is Enough Full Season Championship.

    Ya know... with charter negotiations in the ****ter, and 2 major Richmond controversies in 11 years... going back to a full season points championship may be worth a discussion in Charlotte. If NASCAR agreed to a full season championship I bet the charter agreement would be signed quickly. It...

    Elliott Sadler 2000 Michigan Flip

    Hidden/erased, not tampered with. They did the same with Jeff Gordon's on-board at Las Vegas in 2009, that's been confirmed by Gordon. His head went so far forward even with the HANS device they considered it too disturbing. This has never been confirmed as far as I'm aware, but there's...

    The Cucumber Returns

    Using his infant kid as a human shield during interviews also probably didn't go over well. If he got his ass beat by Hamlin and/or Logano maybe penalties would've been a bit reduced as well. The classic "you fight in my pits, you go to jail. You fight on my fronstretch, you get $100 extra".

    Austin Dillon Appreciation Thread

    Perhaps a bit harsh... but you make valid points. I'm really surprised he's lasted as long as he has, even with family ties.

    The Cucumber Returns

    Most of this summer the end of Cup races has felt like ARCA with faster cars.

    The Cucumber Returns

    Also... I'm sure the garage will be pretty happy with these penalties. A line has been drawn. A line that drivers have wanted to see for a while now. Every industry member's reaction I've seen to the last lap shenanigans is that of complete disgust, partially at the 3 and partially at NASCAR...

    The Cucumber Returns

    I was thinking one race suspension and calling it a day. Glad to see some real stiff penalties here. I can't figure this out... is it zero points for the cucumbered win, and then minus 25 points on top of that? Or full points awarded for the race, and now a 25 point penalty?

    Cup RACE thread --- Richmond

    Is this what I'll sound like 20 years from now talking to my grandkids about the excitement you would get when you walked into the classroom and the curtains were closed and the CRT TV was in the front of the room on the TV cart? :XXROFL:

    What will Austin Dillon’s penalty be?

    Add suspension in there, Andy. I think he sits a week out for hooking Denny.

    Cup RACE thread --- Richmond

    I'm sure they're getting clicks and social media visits galore today... I've checked Pockrass, here, and Jayski hourly since noon. What NASCAR chooses to do here is going to "set the tone" for a long while...

    If NASCAR is serious about intentionally wrecking other drivers...

    When I watched Estepps video the top comment was "Knowing NASCAR Austin Dillon could get a slap on the wrist fine or they could televise his execution live on the frontstretch next week"

    Wow. I hadn't seen that angle before. That's very damning.
