[ChexOrWrex]

AGGRESSIVE

 

[Charlie Spencer]

Look at those empty frontstretch stands.

That's why they let the X race crowd hang around.

 

[HoneyBadger]

That "Bat Cam" is badass as **** though.

 

[Charlie Spencer]

Ouch Denny

[StandOnIt]

[Charlie Spencer]

Ouch Denny

You're welcome.

 

[DUN24]

For ***** sake

 

[Michfan]

'round goes DJ Kennington

 

[ChexOrWrex]

3 engine issues by lap 15, what is going on?!

Underfunded engine shops...

 

[StandOnIt]

D.J. Kennington's junkyard motor just blew

 

[Kiante]

Castrol is synonymous with Honda, not. Toyota.

Its better than that thing that FOX uses.

 

[ChexOrWrex]

For ***** sake

Nothin
But
Commercials

 

[DUN24]

That "Bat Cam" is badass as sh!t though.

I was more excited before I saw how they were utilizing it. I was hoping to see various angles from the side and above, going forward and backward, 30 ft above the cars, 300 yards behind.. etc. It's a drone so the possibilities are endless.

Nobody

I'm more bent about the backmarker blowups atm

Both really

Not even one NBC race into the season and the complaints are in full-swing.lol

 

[SlicedBread22]

I feel like this could be an eventful night

 

[StandOnIt]

neither are worth a crap..they don't work during commercials

 

[ChexOrWrex]

If nascar is wondering why the casual young sports fan cant get into watching nascar, its the tv fans being slammed with more ad time than racing time. Nobody can pay attention to that ****.

 

[Blaze]

This should take place of the comp caution. SMDH. So annoying knowing there are 2 guaranteed cautions within the next 30 laps.

Well this one did, so there you go.

But, its not a drone, its a camera on cable's.

That **** didn't work today.lol

Time to find a new engine lubricant partner.

I suspect there are questions about the effect a 200mph wind would have on it.

 

[Ford Racing]

With all of the cautions and commercials it doesn't even feel like the race has started yet.

 

[DUN24]

I suspect there are questions about the effect a 200mph wind would have on it.

Those things have the craziest counter balance ability. I'd bet they can handle it.

no it isn't, it is on a wire. a faster version of the stick n ball one

 

[DUN24]

Oh really? I could have sworn it was a drone... from the far away view I've seen of it, it looked like a drone.


Never mind I guess lol

There's been like 7 green flag laps, chill.

Never mind.

 

[Blaze]

I'm glad a lot of these ads are during the yellow. But what are the chances they go to the Non-Stop side by side thing later in the race?

 

[ChexOrWrex]

Thanks NBC, NASCAR fans have no idea what hood pins are.

 

[jws926]

Really ,its the same system FOX was using before Cablegate at Charlotte

Now, there is a UK company called Batcam that uses a drone.

 

[DUN24]

They went from Larry Mac explaining bs we already know to a noob fan asking about **** we already know. What in the actual ****.

 

[HoneyBadger]

Thanks NBC, NASCAR fans have no idea what hood pins are.

To be fair, this is Daytona and it's on NBC, there probably are some first time viewers tonight. This isn't like when this race was on TNT for years and only die-hards were watching.
