    SILLY SEASON 2019

    On the flip side, FRR has a lot to lose if they don't hold onto Truex. They only just managed to get full sponsorship. Do those sponsors stick around if they replace him with someone cheaper and aren't as competitive? Would Bass Pro stick around if Truex left? Going back to self sponsorship...

    Gen 7 Cup Car

    Make the centre of the nose 2+ inches higher than the sides so it can't be sealed to the ground and dirty air becomes less of a problem. Get rid of skew. Fine tune it from there Or just model the style after the Pintys series cars. They're great racing

    Rate The Cup Race: Bristol I

    10 - total redemption for Martinsville not delivering the way it usually does. Another short track this weekend, then local bullring racing starts the week after! Things are getting exciting

    NASCAR Pinty's Series

    Looks like the Lapcevich family is selling their Pinty's cars due to lack of funding. Was at Motorama on the weekend and Cayden mentioned they might run mosport and Jukasa if the cars don't sell, but no intention to go out of Ontario unless some funding materializes. So that's the last two...

    Rate The Race: Daytona 500

    4 - Almirola and Bubba Wallace at the font at the end kept me into it. Otherwise a combination of too much single file, wrecking too easily when they did try to race, wrecking too many good cars early racing for stage points, and the broadcast going to commercials when things started to shake up...

    2018 - Daytona 500 - Pre Race Thread

    I'd be interested to see how fast the cars could even go with this aero package without spinning out. Ie if there were no restrictor plates

    NASCAR Pinty's Series

    Ah didn't realize that was the structure. Found a recent article referring to him as Mario Gosselin's Xfinity driver. So he could be driving for them fulltime. https://www.speedwaydigest.com/index.php/news/racing-news/41753-mullins-and-team-solid-at-daytona-test I doubt BRP is staying in...

    NASCAR Pinty's Series

    I'm excited to see what he can do with a full time ride. He'll be a serious championship contender if their equipment is up to par. He was running select pro late and super late races last year. I got to see him in 5 races and he was probably one of the 3 fastest in all of them in a pretty...

    Food line might be easier for them to fix ;)

    NASCAR Pinty's Series

    Yeah, I'm hoping to get out to at least 2 events there this year. Definitely going to the labour day weekend late model races. Probably go to the Ohsweken races on the Friday night too since it's only like 20 minutes away. Their grand re-opening last year was the first time I've been there and...

    NASCAR Pinty's Series

    Was exaggerating about the mini/bone stocks selling out at Jukasa. Just mean right now people are eager to buy anything Jukasa is willing to sell them because it's the big new thing and a lot of people have been anxiously waiting a long time for racing to return there. I can't wait to see how...

    NASCAR Pinty's Series

    Kawartha is in receivership, though they're still running cheaper events like OSCAAR hot rods under interim management. Sounds like running non-profitable races like NASCAR is part of the reason it went under. For Sunset and Delaware, I'm sure it's hard to sell $40 gate admission to watch 18...

    Canadian Short Track Nationals @ Jukasa (formerly Cayuga) Sept 1-3 2018

    http://speed51.com/canadian-race-track-adds-25000-to-win-late-model-race/ Was announced in December, but haven't seen a mention of it here yet. Should be an awesome Labour Day weekend in southern Ontario this coming year. APC series and Outlaw body SLMs on Saturday, and $25,000 (CAD) to win pro...

    NASCAR Pinty's Series

    Any idea if it's the Pinty's Series dropping the Ontario ovals, or the Ontario ovals dropping the Pinty's Series? Seems to me they should be racing at tracks like Flamboro, Sunset, and Delaware, but maybe those tracks are happy with the two APC series races they get a year (Cheaper, way higher...
