    NASCAR working on minority exposure

    Good read, thanks for posting. I'll just say I think this is a 2nd step in the right direction, and I really hope we see participants coming up through the ranks in the near future.

    NASCAR - Television Ratings Thread

    The biggest problem I have with the NBC guys- and it's mostly Jeff- is that they feel the need to always be talking. It's ok to just listen to the race for 5 or 10 seconds, it's enjoyable to watch the race and not have useless pratter going on in the background. Every second of airtime does not...

    I like Brad. I thought he did a good job when he was on ESPN a few years ago.

    Hello everybody.

    Where is this so-called podium? I found the stairway to the podium but it said it had zero post and I couldn't access it. Is that it?

    Race pics and experiences

    I'll try to dig up some old pics my mom gave me years ago that she took on of our trips to riverside. They are from when they had the big wings and Petty's car was still just "Petty blue"- no STP red and Bobby Allison's coca cola car. Had some good memories going there as a little kid!

    Hello everybody.

    Hey I kept it short- I even left out the part about liking sunsets and walks on the beach!

    Hello everybody.

    For me it's KDB, the F is reserved for REAL legends! Like-" Hey see that guy- that's Richard F...... Petty" or " Dale F....... Earnhardt did it again!" or " Bo F........ Jackson ran over the Boz!". I can't use the F for someone who is only a legend in his own mind haha!

    This needs to be dealt with

    I can't argue with that- 10k might be a drop in the bucket for the big cup teams but you're right, I'm sure Mr. Ruch felt that one.

    This needs to be dealt with

    So getting away from the (well deserved) Angela bashing and back to the Original post- yes there should be major repercussions above and beyond a fine! Nascar has come up with this quasi- bubble environment that as far as we know has worked and has kept the sport going. For a team to go around...

    Hello everybody.

    Don't really have "my guy" but I usually pull for Elliot, JJ, and even Bowman and who ever puts the bumper to KDB! Was a Larson fan( what the hell was he thinking). Don't mind Harvick, Kez( he has grown on me as he has matured), even Logano. Only a few I can't stand- KDB( obviously LOL)...

    Hello everybody.

    Glad to know I can, but for now I'll pass on either of those LOL

    Hello everybody.

    Ha! Thanks for the warning- as an old punk rocker I think I'll be able to handle the heat LOL!

    Hello everybody.

    Thought I would introduce myself, my name is Tom. I live outside of Portland Oregon in a town called Sandy, and I'm 55 years old. I grew up in Southern California and some of my earliest memories are my family packing up and heading out to Riverside to camp in the infield by the esses! In the...
