Austin Cindric

Context would help:


Bad communication from team to driver.

Also, Austin said the same thing yesterday over and over again while giving the same feedback. Any driver gets irritated after relaying the same info with no change. "Not enough front turn-in, not enough front responsiveness."

Any driver in any series gets irritated after giving the same information about what he or she needs.

I have heard Dale JR get pretty frustrated at times also and he use to be as laid back as Bowman.
 
my jury is out yet on Cendric. He did leave me wondering what kind of day he would have had if he was in a REAL Penske car at COTA.

I didnt hear a thing wrong with what he said and for those saying its the "spoiled rich kid" mentality just be quiet.
 
I'm assuming most of the teams had radio issues yesterday due to the distance of the track? I know the 9 team absolutely did but they worked around it pretty smoothly early on. I wish we could get better quality radios in NASCAR, sometimes at home and at the track it's a static fest and horribly muffled. F1 has it figured out.

F-1 and NASCAR use Motorola radios. I rarely if ever had any trouble, usually its the person scanning that does.

Is nascar still preventing them from broadcasting driver radios in digital? If so that's probably the biggest issue

Well a fan hacked into their comms a few years ago at the Coke 600 so it doesn’t shock me that they had signal issues

Really? Cause Chase couldn't hear Alan when he was back in turn 11 and along that straight. The other guys had to relay to him. And that's basically what I was getting at those moments on my end as well, just really bad static anytime Alan would talk. Other sections of the track I could hear him good.
 
I just heard some of Cindrics radio...WOW.

But think about it - this was his chance to make an impression

Even when Jeff tried to talk to Logano during a stage break he lost reception. I’d imagine they were all having issues.

Sounds like Alan had a problem with his radio connection or there was an obstruction between him and 11. Our radios were rated over 30 miles so distance isnt a problem.

It's them damn push rods.

Gloomy weather
Means different rpm band to negotiate the rain slick circut
Means a different sound and a different set of push rod jiggles.
Means upset conditions for the radio frequeny.

I agree, and while I'm also so far undecided about Cindric, he has impressed me even in some of his oval Cup starts.

His words on the radio could also be passion. Think Kyle Busch etc.
 
It is hilarious, we can bounce a signal off a satellite a thousand miles above earth, but at Nascar, they can not get radio communication over a three mile area. :lol2:

I think it's more the technology that Nascar is limiting the teams to
