    wow Kyle larson

    Larson needs to learn how to talk the the media. More corporate drone speak, less saying what he really thinks.

    What is Erik Jones saying

    Racing is dangerous. Bad things can happen. If anyone on the track (including the crews) can't handle that risk then it's time for them to move on to something safer.

    Kevin Harvick: Most 500-mile races should be shorter

    Pit Road should always be open unless there is a crash in the pits No luck dog No Waive around No double file restarts shootout style The second the debris is cleared, waive the Green flag regardless of where the leader is at.

    NASCAR Testing new Plate-Track Aero Package stuff

    People tend to do what they have always done because it worked in the past. When it no longer works, they continue doing it because it always worked before.

    Lot of empty seats today

    I think any sport, TV show, event, etc, that loses more than half it's viewers in a 10 year period would be considered broken economically, because once revenues start to fall things go bad quickly. Shrinking is a lot harder that growing. So I don't think comparing the viewers from 1992 to...

    Yea Moto GP is great. Lots of back and forth passing and balls of steel. Sent from my SM-G935V using Tapatalk

    Lot of empty seats today

    What I am trying to get at is that NASCAR will never be fixed. It is way to big to change. After a decade of endless tinkering it's still not fixed and never will be. The five stages of grief when a loved one dies are denial, anger, bargaining, depression, and acceptance. Obviously NASCAR...

    Lot of empty seats today

    It's better to just fade away than the keep posting in a forum about a sport you don't like. Life is way too short for that.

    Rate the race: Martinsville I

    I'll give it an 8, which is the highest rating I've given a NASCAR race in years. Not only was the race good, but the guys in the booth didn't drive me insane for a change.

    Burton: ‘Fans were cheated’ when Jimmie Johnson chose not to qualify at Fontana

    2017 NASCAR Season - Television Ratings Thread

    Think of it like this. Advertising works on young people. It works poorly on old people. Therefore, ad companies like to target young people. At any rate, worrying about TV ratings is like worrying about a Billionaire losing a few million in the stock market. They are still rich and you...

    Bonehead of the week: Fontana

    NASCAR is using an updated system this year. I saw a clip of it on TV during qualifying. All they do is push the car on it, the computer centers the car somehow, and it uses lasers to precisely take the measurements. Then a little printout comes out and the NASCAR official tells you if the...

    Roger Penske: The next major step is cost reduction in NASCAR

    Spending limits are difficult to enforce. For example, Company X, an engineering firm in Japan, Develops a new suspension that will reduce lap times by 2 seconds that costs them 10 million dollars. Company X just happens to be 15% owned by Company Y. Company Y sells the suspension for $40 a...

    Kyle Busch instant classic interview

    I wouldn't be surprised if he has done that already. He's 10 times better than he was 5 years ago. When dealing with the media you have to assume that they are always out to get you. Some drivers handle it better than others. Jimmybot has mastered the art of boring corporate speak. Kyle...

    Kyle Busch instant classic interview

    LOL. The media wants a story, and they will tear him down to get it. Kyle knows that 1) He's prone to slip ups with the media and 2) His sponsor already is making noises about what's going on. The safe thing for him to do is to smile, say nothing, and act like a corporate Drone.

    Jayski.com: Roush sees retirement ahead

    The question will be if they can actually sell the team or if it gets "merged" into another team. Those mergers usually end up with the team assets getting dissolved. Sent from my SM-G935V using Tapatalk
