    You guys should go read the comments from the Chicago

    What I'm about to say isn't feasible for huge NASCAR oval tracks, but IMO, stadiums and arenas ought to be built in locations convenient to access via mass transit. That way, you have an alternative to sitting in traffic and paying hefty parking fees. For NASCAR tracks on the fringes of big...

    Stages? Yes or No?

    Pre-planned stage breaks are less bad than NASCAR throwing debris cautions to manipulate races like they used to. Funny how before stage racing, almost every race had multiple cautions for "debris" on track. When stage racing began, suddenly debris was no longer a problem at most tracks.

    Would you rather the old way or the chase playoffs?

    The chase format that existed when I first got into NASCAR... I didn't like it. It was dumb to have an arbitrary reset at 10 races to go. But, it wasn't awful enough to keep me from being a fan, as I enjoyed racing. Then NASCAR announced the playoffs... it made me outright angry and livid. It...

    Cup RACE thread --- Chicago Street Course

    I tried a deep dish pizza when I was in Chicago last year- and was disappointed. Everyone else in the pizza joint was ordering jumbo slices of regular-looking pizza. And they seemed to be enjoying it. I think next time I visit, I'm going to return to the same pizza place but order the...

    It didn't seem like that was the issue- I thought he wasn't reversing because other cars were in the way. But, it appears you are right and I was mistaken.

    I guess local cautions aren't a thing in NASCAR. That should've been a local caution. It's not like Bowman couldn't get going- he just didn't have the room.

    So I take it the street lights in Chicago aren't sufficient for racing at night?

    Cup RACE thread --- Chicago Street Course

    I'm off this afternoon, and am off on Sundays starting next week. I'm not sure whether that's a good or bad thing. I get to watch races live without the fear of spoilers, but I have to sit through commercials.

    NASCAR 2023 - Bold Prediction Thread

    My prediction: Auto Club and at least two other tracks on this year's schedule will not be on next year's schedule when it's released. On a similar note, I failed to vote in last year's poll before the deadline. Had I voted, my choice would've been tied with the prediction that ended up...

    Cup RACE thread --- Texas

    Big Hoss TV started airing nonstop commercials about 10 minutes ago. No commercials before that. Cars are getting fired up! ...and Big Hoss finally stopped airing commercials.

    Cup RACE thread --- Texas

    Greetings from Texas Motor Speedway! It barely sprinkled for a few minutes, then stopped. A few minutes later, they stopped the race for lightning. They told us to take shelter, but it's completely dry and nobody has seen lightning.

    NASCAR 2022 - Bold Prediction Thread

    I know which bold prediction I'm voting for! (Even if any others come true, including mine.) The prediction I thought was an absurd pipe dream that would never ever happen!

    NASCAR Pick 'Em 2022 - Bristol

    Oops! I picked Cole Custer at Kansas 2 after picking him at Darlington 1. I put together most of my schedule at the start of the season. I've made a few changes to it since, but not to Darlington 1 or Kansas 2. I don't know how I managed to put Cole Custer twice and not notice. Y'all are...

    Autotrader EchoPark Automotive 500 at Texas Motor Speedway Pre-Race Thread

    NASCAR returns to Texas Motor Speedway in Fort Worth this week! As a reminder, Fort Worth is a metropolitan anchor with its own skyline: Since the next race at Texas Motor Speedway will be a full year after this one (no spring race next year!), I'll post the Fort Worth skyline again so...

    Johali's Rate the All-Star race

    I'll go with a three. TMS is ~20 minutes from my house. But, I worked earlier today, and I see the All-Star race as pointless. So, I didn't attend. I'm so glad I didn't waste money or energy attending this joke... err, this race.
