    The Announcers Thread

    I actually didn't mind the Start/Finish interviews. It managed to capture the Driver's intensity and excitement after the win not 15 minutes, 2 driver interviews and a commercial break later. I didn't need to hear from the winner twice, but I get wanting to get the pomp and circumstance and the...

    Are more limits coming for Cup drivers in Xfinity, Truck Series?

    True statement, however, it doesn't change the analogy. The reality is that more and more people watch the people they want to watch. All of the fans that tune in on Saturday for an Xfinity race or attend to see their favorite driver are going to outweigh the ones that are bitter because he or...

    Jr Late Models on Mav

    This is at a track that is about an hour and a half away from me. It is a cool concept and some of the kids an handle full sized stock cars. However, It is slightly disturbing that the promoter of the track plants into these kids heads that they are the future of the sport and that this is where...

    Are more limits coming for Cup drivers in Xfinity, Truck Series?

    You need Cup stars because people need to be interested. People are less and less interested in the actual sport and more interested in the people, personalities and storylines. Look at the general sports landscape. If the NBA finals was between the Minnesota Timberwolves and the Miami Heat...

    World of Outlaws 2018

    I was terribly disappointed when the Outlaws were rained out at Placerville in April, but come to find out they have renamed the race the 49er Classic and it now pay $20,000 to win and is the largest paying 410 sprint car race in CA. It was rescheduled for September. I can't wait!

    They got Larson

    I think you may be giving Larson too much credit here, He readily admits that he just drives it and has never turned a wrench on a car in his life. I would imagine that he just says whatever makes sense to him. I would bet he may not even know that they are trying to cheat.

    They got Larson

    This makes me wonder if the teams just figured out that the windows will flex and just chance it in hopes that it returns to shape for post race inspection? I cant see a situation where a team looks at the car and says let's go do the same thing that 347 teams have been caught doing and hope we...

    Supreme Court paves way for legal sports gambling, some think this is a big deal for NASCAR

    I bet and play DFS and enjoy it a lot. I don't think this would bring spectators to the actual race however. I think that if people are there they will bet. NASCAR is unlike horse racing in that at a horse race people go and the betting thing is almost a prerequisite of attending the horse race...

    Lil’ Larry

    Do you think people actually channel surf? Every cable company provides the digital guide. People are not tuning in and hearing DW and then opting out. If you are tuning into NASCAR it is because you are interested to see it and if you happen to tune in right when DW blows his wad you...

    Cup RACE thread --- Bristol

    As a Larson fan it is disappointing, but I absolutely love to watch Busch and Larson race each other. They are both so good and they race each other hard, but clean. I cannot wait to get home to watch the broadcast after watching it on my phone from the NASCAR app.

    Uh, NASCAR: We Don't Have All Dang Day

    I guess I'm just wired differently though. We just drove 6 hours to Fontana last weekend after a Hockey and Baseball game for my son, through snow and then went to the race and drove back 6 hours that night and went to school and work the next day. I even caught the final 68 laps on the re air...

    Uh, NASCAR: We Don't Have All Dang Day

    I don't get the fuss. I like NASCAR, I will watch it whenever it is televised. If it comes on at 10 am I'm going to watch it, same for when they are in my time zone and its on at 1230 pm. If I am not home I DVR it. If I miss that I catch the re air that night. There is a lot of fussing over...

    Rate The Cup Race: Fontana

    I rate it a 7. Sucks to see the race dominated and run away with, but that is how it goes sometimes. The racing between Harvick and Larson for a handful of laps and the battle between Busch and Truex were great, great racing. Larson throwing a slider on Busch for second and Busch crossing over...

    Do you pay for any of the short track race streaming services?

    I don't subscribe to any streaming services a much as I pick select races to purchase. For instance I was home last night it was raining and I decided on watching the WOO at Vegas. Most of my Saturdays are spent at the local tracks so I don't feel the need to purchase a streaming option as it is...

    Austin Dillion Fan Favorite?

    I would imagine so. Which is why I said earlier that the 500 is a career altering win. I mean it only makes sense, right? Lol.

    Well, Denny Hamlin is saltier than the Dead Sea..

    I have been watching him for that same exact amount of time. It's funny how two people watching the same guy for the same amount of time can have to differing opinions on the same incident. Hence my previous comment. I know Denny's rep doesn't garner him the benefit of the doubt amongst people...

    Austin Dillion Fan Favorite?

    Oh I definitely think that Bayne was fluky. I think Austin is decent. I think he is the unfortunate one who has to watch NASCAR grow with possibly one of the best crops of young talent the sport has ever seen. I know he has had a head start on them, but how often does one sport see talent the...

    Well, Denny Hamlin is saltier than the Dead Sea..

    We will just have to disagree on it because we are all pontificating at this point. I completely disagree with anyone who says Hamlin came up. The video clearly shows him holding his line and Bubba coming down. There are also two distinct pops in the video. If one is the tire I can understand...
