All-Star Heat races

[Dr_B_UNC]

The reason they shift is because they don't run two ignition boxes anymore. They used to have one box out of the two that was de-tuned so they wouldn't spin their tires as easily coming out of the corner. They accomplish it now by shifting.

Or it’s simply a manual transmission strategy of keeping the engine in the optimum power and torque range of rpms. Occam’s razor brother.

“Bad boys bad boys…”

 

[Spotter22]

Look at that camber

 

[aunty dive]

Shifting produces faster lap times.

If it didn’t, they wouldn’t be doing it.

 

[Dr_B_UNC]

Nascar shouldn’t throw a caution to save drivers who couldn’t save their tires. That’s the whole point at NW…

See? Aunty totally gets Occam’s Razor

 

[AdoubleU24]

Always love the "Your way, my way" look at the tires

 

[jws926]

WOW! that was some tire wear

 

[Dr_B_UNC]

High side didn’t work that time.

 

[Dr_B_UNC]

I don’t think Alan’s adjustment went the correct direction.

 

[Dr_B_UNC]

Time for a patented “save the Golden Child” caution

 

[AdoubleU24]

I don’t think Alan’s adjustment went the correct direction.

They screwed up thinking they were gonna get Suarez on the outside a 2nd time

less torque at higher RPM'S

 

[Dr_B_UNC]

That was complete BS to throw caution to save the guys who can’t manage tires. Should’ve let the 20 eat the wall.

 

[Dr_B_UNC]

less torque at higher RPM'S

Yes. And when you blow corner entry you want the torque to compensate and accelerate out of the hole.

They always make **** up when they race in the water. Nothin new

 

[Dr_B_UNC]

Wow. Bell went from a complete F up to sitting pretty. Must be nice

I'd rather have cars that can race tomorrow night

They’ve got backups. Let’s go.

 

[Spotter22]

Move him on the last lap last corner

 

[StandOnIt]

Yes. And when you blow corner entry you want the torque to compensate and accelerate out of the hole.

no you don't, if you are spinning you aren't winning.

 

[Dr_B_UNC]

Ugh. Should’ve let them go slicks. Maybe 2nd one will be better

 

[StandOnIt]

Save Bell caution, he complains, they drop the flag. Nascar micro manages the race.

 

[Spotter22]

They’ve got backups. Let’s go.

They do but do you really want to wad them up?

 

[aunty dive]

The idea that NASCAR has a say in the matter is an embarrassment in my opinion.

Put it in team’s hands. They wanna go balls out? Let them

 

[Dr_B_UNC]

For All Star? Honestly? *hangs head*. Yes. That was the appeal back in the day. One Hot Night!

 

[JBone88]

Only way to pass is to use the bumpers. Who will actually have the balls to do it?

 

[Spotter22]

They wadded them up in the feature in one hot night

 

[Spotter22]

Quacker State! Great Motor oil!

 

[HoneyBadger]

Fox explained why NASCAR made the decision they made.

I didn’t like that they took it out of the crew chiefs’ hands but the reasons were valid.

Fair. If you mean save them in meaningless heats then yes. My bad

Yesterday was the first time I ever saw a merch hauler lines where Chase’s hauler wasn’t the longest. It was the Wilkesboro merch hauler by a MILE

Was there always supposed to be a caution tho?

I'm glad somebody else heard what Daniel said. I about spit out .95 cent worth of beer.

I dont think so
