Maybe not formally fuel saving strategies, but you could tell the cars were slower early on and not pushing it. The last 50 laps, every one was full bore! Maybe just the cycle of the race??? Now I wonder what lap times look like.

Oh, the indycar race seemed more full than the nascar race but that could have just been the day time weather. Everyone was looking to sit in the shade for the indy race. The nascar race was at night basically so the crowd was more dispersed. That being said, the seats around us for indycar...

Made it to Phoenix yesterday for the races. Perfect weather! My first indycar race. Im normally a nascar guy. Anyway, the indycar race was a good show. Watching Newgarden go from 10th to first in about 25 laps was impressive! The whole race seemed like a lot of fuel saving until the last 50...

Yeah, I'm not cheering for one side or the other. Im just hoping stock car racing can get better and grow!

No, maybe I misinterpreted your post, but it sounded like you were saying that any team could move from nascar into imsa nhra f1 indy car and have similar business results. That's just not true, the series are all different. Require different engineers, crew chiefs, etc, basically the whole...

But those aren't stock car racing series. Those are all very different and as we have seen time and again, cross over drivers don't do particularly well so why would full teams have any better luck crossing over?

Overall, the sad part here is that I believe nascar loses another 15% viewership next year, whether they win or lose this trial. Also, no chance 23xi survives more than a year or two. Denny will be retired after next year as well. If nascar is deemed a monopoly, which we all know it is, I think...

I don't agree with Denni on this one. If Nascar gives out 20mil per team, a winning car will then cost 30mil. That's just how competition works. That's why stick and ball sports have salary caps. Not sure that would work in autoracing? It would be too easy to sneak a car onto a track and do some...

The problem is that Nascar is the only building on the planet. The bar owner could move to a different building and be just as successful or more successful!

Steve Phelps get fired yet? Its been a week or so. Maybe they are waiting til after Christmas but thats cutting it close to the start of speedweeks!!! Best to get rid of him now so the fans don't completely bail on next season!

Exactly. The racing was fun and interesting/entertaining. All things Nascar currently lacks, which is why that idiot Phelps saw it as competition and wanting to "knife" it instead of fixing the issues with his own product!

Been a long time since I've posted here but had to comment on Phelps being a total out of touch maroon! If he isn't fired by the end of the week, Nascar has big problems heading it's way! Talk about being totally incompetant! Any leader of anything that calls their employees or teammates...

Did anyone actually do a full tally of cars that were destroyed? I was thinking the total cost was over $10 mil based on Mike Waltrips comment of 250k per car. I'm sure xfinity and trucks are less, so maybe $175k and $100k for the xfinity and trucks. I'll see if I can dig this up later.

LOL. So much for any strategy at all this coming year. The leaders will jump to the lead and stay in the lead. No need to pit early because everyone basically has to pit at the same time now to make it to the end. And since Aero is so important I expect a lot of guys dominating the races this...

Does this mean Friday's race is on IMSA.tv and the NBC track pass app? I don't have the trackpass so I'm hoping Friday's race is free! It's one of my favorites for the year.

I love those Lambo cars. They look pretty cool. Even if you aren't a huge Lambo fan, its great to see something different and more manufacturers out there.

The wheels look a few inches wider.

Wow prayers to both of you and your families. Its a tough recovery but stick with it and you will be back to normal in no time!

2- most boring season I've seen in a long time. I stopped watching after Kes led 95% of the laps at martinsville. Congrats to Rowdy nation, but even KB looked bored and unsatisfied with the win.

Sorry to drop in with a negative comment but I got really frustrated by the crap Burton was talking about when Denny Hamlin ruined his day by driving through the infield. All Burton could say was that Texas Motor Speedway and all other speedways need to put millions of dollars into their...
