    2017 NASCAR's Banquet and Championions Week

    About how expected the lamest season ever to finish. No real speech by Earnhardt or kenseth, two doofuses running the show, and a ceo that could barely be bothered to show up. Love Brian Frances “here’s your trophy” then proceeds to walk off the stage with barely a hand shake.

    Discussion: Good old days vs. new style racing

    Racing went south somewhere between the death traps at any speed and the winged bubble wrapped eye sores. The current style of racing is like going to a monster truck show, and instead of cars, ramps, and various other obstacles, it is just a flat surface. Or going to an nfl game and tackling...

    Was the 2017 NASCAR season a good season?

    One of the worst in the last ten years. If I would have known junior was going to half throttle it most of the season, and chase would choke every time his car sniffed the lead, would not have bothered. In my household Twins Sunday afternoon baseball, or Saturday evening boxing, now takes...

    Homestead Farewells

    I won’t be surprised if Kurt Busch is out of ride next year. Also one, or two, of the three stooges in NBC’s booth will be taking a hike, likely letarte.

    Let's talk Stage Racing

    Meh, only a few times did I see a driver push a little harder, and at a few of the bigger tracks the stages were used to play the pit early game. If anything the stages made me realize how dull the first 80% of a race can be, similar to the first three and a half quarters of an nba game. I’d...

    2017 Homestead - Ford EcoBoost 400 - Pre Race Thread

    First time going, do they have concerts, fireworks, trophy presentations, etc after the checkered, or is it like any other race where it is best to be back in your car within 10 minutes of the end or face a two hour wait getting out of the parking lot?

    Vegas track renovations to make a more fan friendly experience

    2006, my parents were at that race and sent me photos of snow on the ground in Vegas. I went the following year and wore a sweatshirt for most of the race.

    Cup RACE thread --- Texas

    Thank god, now let’s hope his car checks out and brad, chase, or Blaney can win next week to keep Hamlin out!

    The news we were all dreading...

    I wonder if juniors retirement isn’t more Hendrick trying to reduce his salary, and less about concussions? Seems to me the owners are starting to collude against the drivers. If they don’t watch it, they might have a date in a court room.

    Many more 2-day weekends next season?

    It promotes sand bagging and turns the whole process into a farce. Like back in the 90s, mid pack drivers would always have the fastest ‘happy hour’ times, but come race day were often a lap down before the first pit stop. You’ll be turning the qualifying session into the last practice session...

    2017 Martinsville - First Data 500 - Pre Race Thread

    Next weeks Texas race, the cowboys will be playing kc at Dallas. The Phoenix race at least doesn’t have the cardinals playing same day, and Tampa at Miami will be taking place at the same time as the season finale, but this was originally scheduled as a bye week for both teams before the...

    Autoweek: Bubba Wallace to drive 43 car in 2018

    Currently have a Camry on the last year of a three year lease. Sure the car is nice and reliable, and a great car pooling car, but it is quite possibly the blandest thing on four wheels. I’m just glad gm decided to run a faux Camaro next year, and hopefully ford does the same with the mustang in...
