I think you have a point there about JR doing that stuff but it's not what makes fans of Chase like him. I personally could not care less about doing stuff like that. I like that Chase seems to "live" life. He's an avid gamer and flies planes and likes to snowboard (albeit probably less these...

Not really complaining. I just thought it was dumb.

LOL. I saw that as kind of dumb really to just blurt that out on TV. I also did not think hearing him refer to his father as "daddy" did a whole lot for NASCAR trying to shake the whole red neck image.

Really? I don't remember that either. I am not big on Social Media though so maybe that's why. I just don't get the issues people try to make about Chase's personality or supposed lack thereof. This interview of his is one of my favorites. He is engaged and joking around and being really...

Man I would love it. I say that knowing Larson will likely get the better of Chase in the majority but I know Chase is good enough to get his too. Would be so great to see them race hard without anyone getting used up like at the Glen. I don't mind fender banging or a good old bump and run as...

I just don't see it with JR. Can you give an example of how he was so "fun." I mean he was all right but I just don't understand what was so different about his personality compared to Chase. I think Chase is a little more guarded about his personal life. He and current GF have apparently...

More reflection on the race now that I heard Radioactive....Chase and AG were talking before the race saying this was a great opportunity for the stuff they talked about in the offseason. I am curious what that was. Maybe just being more aggressive? Whatever it was though they just sounded...

So you are saying you only pull for the underdog? I think that's cool but I hesitate to start labeling people as "golden spoon participants." Winning in this sport is hard even in the best of equipment and I think the equipment in this generation of car is more equal than ever. Look at Larson...

What people look for in a driver is very unique and personal. There are those that will just jump around pulling for the next big thing as they need a guy that wins a lot. Other guys like to root for the villain and they were mostly Earnhardt fans. LOL. Others though look for a person they...

Yeah - I just felt like the radius of the corners at the coliseum were not right for stick cars.

I think for being under 30 Chase has plenty of on track success winning Xfinity and Cup titles and about 20 races and an all-star race and (now) Clash as well. The 9 has been off the last couple years for sure and I think that has a lot to do with Chase's injury, his slow adapting to the new...

I think you are assuming that those who get the biggest reaction at races or those that have the most representation are automatically the most popular. Not necessarily true. In my experience, most Earnhardt fans were very loud and represented about it and most Elliott fans were more quiet and...

There is a difference between popular and iconic. Dale SR was more iconic for sure but for every fan that really liked him there were others that hated the way he drove. I will always remember the interview with Bill where he was asked about why he was more popular than Dale and he said "Dale...

Have you been to a race recently? I usually go to 2-3 a year and rarely see young female fans of his. There are still a lot of fans in NASCAR my age (45) or older that were fans of his dad and automatically gravitated to him. Plus he had times with Dale JR driving for him in XFINITY which...

Really good race and super-pumped about how Chase drove. Many complain he is not aggressive enough but was a lot of fun to see him pushing his way through lapped traffic for the win. I will say though...where were the rest of the Chevy's? I hope that is not a sign of things to come for the...

What I have been saying is Indy should not have been the priority and by choosing to go to Charlotte late they made Indy the priority. My fear (although that is a strong word...more line "concern") is that if drivers are not in some way obligated to show up it opens a door that waters down the...

Maybe but to me your day job is the one that pays the bills. I think if he could pays the bills the way he wants with dirt only that's where he'd be all the time. NASCAR has almost become a necessary evil for these guys. I think there's a reason drivers are retiring early though.

These are fair points but really I think it's easy when you are a fan of a driver to be OK with stuff like this and at least be less likely to look at it from other perspectives. Regardless of what people think my feelings on Larson are - I have a ton of respect for Larson the driver and think...

I understand final decision goes with Rick but from everything I have seen/heard it was also what Kyle wanted to do. I have a hard time believing Kyle wanted to leave and Rick made him stay but you are free to your opinion on it as well. I continue to see that this is all much ado about...

Yeah - That's where I have been coming from in that while I understand people don't agree with it I think there has been a ton of overreaction for something that likely will not happen again and if it does at least Kyle will know the ramifications of his decision. I think people forget that...
