    Does winning a title still get you into the HOF?

    The past two seasons have shown us that the winning the title and being the best team in a given year are two different things these days. So my question is if you hoist the trophy at the end of the year does that make you a shoe in for the HOF? I mean if everything ended right now I'd have a...

    Spire Motorsports

    Figured I'd just start a thread for them. Between cup and trucks they'll be making a lot of moves this off season. Have they named the truck series drivers for next year yet and I missed it?

    Denny Hamlin Midseason Single Elimination Tournament

    Denny was talking about this on his podcast this week. Initially it doesn't sound like a bad idea, but I think it will be adding another thing to confuse fans as to what's going on. You have regular season points, playoff points, stage points and now this head to head elimination bracket.

    What racing podcasts do you listen to?

    I've gotten to the point that I rarely listen to the actual radio in the car anymore. I never realized how many racing podcast are out there but these are the ones I listen to frequently. Anyone else have any recommendations? DJD Door Bumper Clear Actions Detrimental - Well at least the 1st...

    What 25 drivers do you add to make the 75 Greatest Nascar Drivers for the 75th anniversary?

    They were discussing this on the late shift the other night and I thought it might be some good offseason discussion. Below is the current 50. What 25 do you add to the list to make the greatest 75? Curtis Turner Herb Thomas Tim Flock Red Byron Buck Baker Lee Petty Glenn “Fireball” Roberts...

    Is Ty Gibbs the most disliked champion?

    For anyone at the time of winning their championship I can't think of any other driver that was more disliked by fans and drivers alike. Sent from my SM-G991U using Tapatalk

    Does NASCAR need more officials?

    This was briefly touched on when I was listening to Sirius and they do make a good point. The last few years they keep talking about reducing the amount of at track Nascar personnel and now we see them missing and blowing a lot of calls this year. Last week it was 2 calls that they claim they...

    Race for the Championship

    Anyone else watch it? So far I think it was the best Nascar themed show I've seen. Clearly they've put some effort into this thing. Will be interesting to see if they continue follow these same drivers every week or do the more Drive to Survive style where every episode seems to follow a...

    Bubba in the 45

    Not a huge fan of these games, but it is what it is https://www.nascar.com/news-media/2022/08/31/number-swap-23xi-racing-to-pursue-owners-championship-with-wallace-in-no-45/

    Time to look at playoff format?

    I'm a Harvick fan but today is just proof this system is flawed. Now MTJ who is 4th in points is out but Denny is 19th in points coming into today is locked in. I'm sorry that just doesn't sit well with me. Not sure what the solution is? Top 5 in driver points guaranteed playoff spot and then...

    Scene Vault Podcast

    Anyone else listen to this? Listened to a few of them now. I like that they tell the story of some of the big names in the sport. Sent from my SM-G991U using Tapatalk

    Creative/memorable rule bending

    Figured this would be good for off season discussion. Was just thinking of some of the creative ways guys tried to get an advantage over the years. Some got busted, some came out years later. Here's the ones that come to mind for me. When Alan got busted making the tape flaps on the 24 and the...

    Kyle Busch apologies

    Shouldn't he be required to do sensitivity training now? I thought Hallie used the same word and was required to and that wasn't even in major media from what I recall? https://nascar.nbcsports.com/2021/10/31/kyle-busch-apologizes-for-comment-after-martinsville-race/ Sent from my SM-G991U...

    Nascar docuseries

    To me this looks like it will be something along the lines of the F1 series on Netflix https://www.jayski.com/2021/07/08/nascar-to-produce-playoff-docuseries/ Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk

    Electric pit gun?

    Do you think Nascar would every go to electric/cordless pit guns? Honestly I see no disadvantage to it. Air hoses over the wall have always been an issue with them getting hung up on the car, guys tripping over them, and then the hose becoming a weapon when someone runs one over. I mean...

    Pit road speed

    Anyone else think it's time we go away from the timing lines and go to some form of GPS speed measurements? The technology is definitely there why are we not using it? It would make it a lot more black and white, you break the speed limit anywhere you're busted. None of this I was too fast...

    Does the champion win at Phoenix this year?

    Or is this the year it finally ends? I'm sorry it just seems way to convenient in all the years of this poor format that out of all the cars out there one of the final four guys always wins the race. Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk

    2021 Crown Jewel Races

    Now that the oval at Indy is off the schedule does something replace it as a "crown jewel". Does anyone care anymore? Do we need to have 4? Bristol on the dirt? Road America on the 4th? Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk

    Jimmie or Chad

    I know the question was always asked when they were together, but since the divorce Chad seems to be one coming out better. I understand Jimmie has had a ton of bad luck this year, but what Chad has been able to quietly accomplish with the 24 team this year has been pretty remarkable. At...
