Sad when people turn their backs on science because of politics. Good science has nothing to do with politics - scientific results follow the laws of physics and chemistry et. al. no matter what the politicians want. Scientific reporting can be colored by politics, but with a little effort it...

Sorry to anger their fans, but I do not find watching golf or fishing exciting at all. Worse than watching baseball.

"I enjoyed the CARS Tour late model show at Ace Speedway on Saturday... " Might not get to enjoy any more races at Ace Speedway for a while - the Governor is shutting them down due to violating the numbers of spectators allowed during this part of the phased-in reopening. Note that this is...

During an invitational Late Model race at 311 Speedway (some years back now), the promoter added a car from Florida that had not made the field for the feature race (probably because he came so far). That car wasn't handling, and its driver raced very frustrated and aggressive about it - got...

lol, remember them too... ironically, their hit song was called "Take Off"...

Heard a similar one, from an elderly friend. Her computer was running slowly on tasks that required a lot of memory, such as video streaming. I advised her that she should get a new computer that could handle today's data loads more easily (hers was several generations old, and was a...

"Translation: Teams with a high level of talent often succeed. shocker. " Experience is not necessarily talent - it's just experience. Periodically we see new drivers come in without much experience driving these cars, yet they out-run veterans with lots of experience. But the new guys are...

"Would you guys pour $$$ into a 9 yr old car to find out what is the matter? " I would at least spend the money to get a diagnosis and quote for repair. Usually the better independent shops don't charge a lot to do that, if at all. But realize I'm someone who keeps driving cars for years and...

No practice is a big advantage for the teams with experienced drivers and crew chiefs who already have thick notebooks on each track. With a new car next year, I doubt even the experienced teams will accept no practice...

If they're going to start developing the land around Chicagoland Speedway, an industrial park would be better for it than housing. Industrial parks usually don't complain about noise or traffic.

After qualifying they should invert the top twenty qualifiers, and the two drivers with the most points (as of that race) should start on the tail.

It is soooo great that the cars "resemble" real street cars so much.

I'd go '60s if I could, but I haven't had any hair in years! LOL!

A buddy asked me to sell off his record collection. Before listing them I've learned (the hard way) to first make sure each record plays all of the way through okay. So, been listening to a lot of The Band, Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, Creedence Clearwater Revival, Beatles, and Beach Boys now...

Since they still want to get all 36 races run this season, they're talking about scheduling a lot of them closer to Charlotte (to make travel easier for the majority of the teams, who are based there). It would be interesting if they scheduled Rockingham and North Wilkesboro, but since those...

Nah, if it was really "Run what ya brung" then you'd be allowed to cheat up the car... much more than normal...

Whomever wins the championship this year, it will be tainted with a * beside his name...

I think that they stopped midweek races (except for a few rain makeups) back in the early 1970s - when R.J. Reynolds became NASCAR's sponsor. It was part of their new marketing strategy.

Shouldn't be hard to find a used Legends car... but can be harder to find a good used Legends car. Legends cars are fragile, and even if they're bent just a little that's often enough to make them back-markers. Also, there have been many rules changes over the years so make sure whatever you...

We might see more pass-through windows (for paying a real person) like I've seen used in sketchier neighborhoods, particularly at night. A lot like a drive-through teller at a bank, although you walk up to it. But I wonder what the reaction will be after more people realize that paper money...
