I'm pretty sure all energy drinks are bad for you and don't really work to boot (at least for me).

^Yep, same old, same old. Racing shines in the boom times and suffers in the down years. With the novelty of the NextGen car wearing off, it'll take more than new aero parts to get the average fan excited.

^They're not going to move a game for cold weather...snow is another issue.

All I have to say is Jacksonville better win tomorrow!

Too bad NASCAR couldn't get a summer stretch deal on ESPN.

^Wow, I want some of what you're on!

^Crossovers are just a fad that will fade away faster than the mini-van boom of the late 90s/early 2000s.

Driver personality should be a distant 3rd on the list of reasons to watch racing. No amount of advertising is going to change how fans truly relate to a particular driver anyway. Should Joey Logano and Denny Hamlin's sponsors force them to make more public appearances? Probably, but at the end...

^More like the Richmond spring race...Darlington is a fan favorite again.

Exactly...danger and speed are what NASCAR was built on. Now what do you have? Safety first, then (corporate) team work.

They still need another $5 million from the state for structural improvements before the notion of a NASCAR event can even be entertained, but sounds like it's going to happen.

Tyler Reddick says the NextGen car needs at least 1,000 HP to make a noticeable difference from the current engine limitations.

It has more to do with the decline in NASCAR's popularity overall. Kyle Busch and Chase Elliott are close to "household names" and Ryan Blaney isn't far behind, but the complete corporatization of the sport will never allow driver popularity to return to the glory days of the '70s-early 2000's.

Yup, Pocono doesn't even allow fans with a Pit Pass to walk the length of pit road anymore.

^It could have been a lot worse with only 5 streaming races on a platform most people already have. I'm sure the FOX/NBC races will be streamed on the Fox Sports and Peacock apps.

Only 9 races on traditional broadcast TV...kinda sad!
