    Today’s drivers could NOT win a ‘ship in 80s NASCAR per Rusty Wallace

    There is a lot of click bait junk being thrown up on Facebook regarding NASCAR drivers. I’m sure it also happens with other sports just as it’s happening with celebrities, or anyone in the news. My wife will see these and used to react, but I’d look for any other solid source.

    Johali's Rate the Cup race --- Bristol

    Back to ratings, I give it a 7, because the tires situation was a mess IMO. I’ve been watching races since the 60’s. I’ve lived old school short tracks, and while tire wear is a desired factor I felt this new compound Goodyear brought to Bristol (for the right front tire) was a fail. Too soft...

    NASCAR Pick 'Em 2025 - Bristol

    Yep, this is a cruel contest. I’ll never surrender, but I know my time as the leader this season will now only be relished as a fond memory of what might have been….🫩. Nevertheless, our crew is preparing options for remaining races, and hoping for a dramatic series of Hail Mary surprises.

    NASCAR Pick 'Em 2025 - Bristol

    Well, Larson has $#*+ the bed tonight. The tires mess is bad enough, but he speeds on a caution pit stop. Now he’s gone far enough to officially advance in the playoffs, so he doesn’t care where he finishes. I’m screwed.

    This tire deal is a disaster, creating a $#*+ show.

    Every organization, when faced with potential for significant impacts to current operations, creates contingency plans. Some are more detailed and involved than others…depends on the threat. NASCAR was considering all types of scenarios. None of these were slam dunks. All it demonstrates, to me...

    Indeed. Both @Magicmiler and @dirtfan have a strong stable to draw from!

    Yep, this is why teams like Zane’s finish badly. I thought they would hold out as long as possible before that last pit stop, hopefully of a caution. Of course they come in, and THEN a caution happens! Killer 😩🤬. Still in it but need good finishes out of these back runners…

    Perfect weather here for raceday, sunny blue sky, around 73 with a cool breeze. Won’t be attending but sitting on our deck about 22 miles SW from there getting ready for it. Hope we can get one of those great seats high in turn one next year.

    I know you’re a “gotta have the last word” guy, but since you posed the question… Ross raced super aggressive early on, got a lot of cars sideways, and got chapped too heavy for it IMO. But he has matured his approach and drives about as clean as anyone out there now. Hamcrap is a very good...

    Oh sorry, I meant to add that I looked at your avatar, and laughed remembering how Hamcrap took out your guy multiple times over the years. 😉 BTW, I am a fan of Chase…one of my favorites I pull for and have since he started. But with the court ruling it’s a good day, and I’m McLovin It!

    23XI statement on not signing Charter agreement

    I know, I know, I’m mostly having fun talking about him being a drooling fan of MJ. But I couldn’t figure out how he could make some of the early comments he shared in court without some early bias. Also his rationale for his judgement that was overturned by all 7 judges above him was quite the...

    I’d say he KNEW any alternative ruling would be smacked down by the higher court. But will give him credit for recognizing the lack of merit in the claim by the MJ cabal.

    23XI statement on not signing Charter agreement

    I have ZERO respect for the way he slides other cars up into the wall time and time again, or how he blames everyone but himself for his own disasters, or how he positions himself as the “great sage of the sport” while participating in the tear down attempt of it’s sanctioning body. His years of...

    If you consider a team’s EBITDA, then their actual net profit anfter all expenses, you may be surprised how low that is. Another $1.5M straight to the bottom line would be very welcomed! NASCAR will not FOLD if MJ’s buddy judge rules against them (which is likely). It will be appealed to the...

    23XI statement on not signing Charter agreement

    No doubt he belongs…but he’s still a dick. Not just play acting as a black hat….a genuine stinky nasty one. We’ve all known these types. His presence on the track makes for great fun when he screws up his pit speed, or gets wrecked out of the race, or has a hissy fit because, in his narcissistic...

    Yes, you sat almost where we were, about mid-height, kind of between the finish line and entrance to turn 1. Brought our son and daughter-in-law with us…it was her first NASCAR race. We had part of turn 1 and all of turn 2 blocked by massive big tent setup in the infield for the concerts. Then...

    NASCAR Pick 'Em 2025 - World Wide Technology

    This is near where we live now. We flew up and went to the first race in 2022, the debacle where Hamcrap was trying to wreck Ross everywhere, slowing in front of him, basically exhibiting road rage multiple times during the race. Of course NASCAR did nothing at that moment or afterward to him...
