Is there another site that has a live leaderboard and/or chat for NASCAR races? Are others having trouble with Nascar.com? All I get is 'nascar.com is not responding due to a slow running script' and i've tried it on several machines. It's horrible. I've complained many times & never gotten a response.

The only time I go there is to log on to Raceview and it works fine for me. Somebody on here will have a link for you.
 
Welcome to the forum. I use NASCAR mobile on iphone 4s and it works great. NASCAR.com is like the MSNBC of websites
 
I made my annual visit to NASCAR.com to see how that site is doing. I have to say it is much better than last year, I'll probably visit again. But the series standings page needs improvement (I'll stick with the Fox standing list).

I don't know what that means. Good or bad?

I am of course refering to the (free) leaderboard on the regular nascar.com on a regular desktop computer with Windows and one of the popular browsers. I guess I've been tending to use IE...I should try again with Chrome or Firefox. Perhaps I shouldnt complain about what is free but seems to me if they offer it, it should work (alot better than it does). I have no prob with the (more sophisticated) leaderboards on indycar.com & formula1.com. Nascar.com wasnt so bad 2 years ago. They redid it for last year & I found it awful in many ways. At least performance-wise, it's way worse this year year with these "long running scripts" that seem to be on every page.

Beyond that I'd like to see useful information on the leaderboard such as last lap pitted, number of times pitted, maybe number of tires taken, whether the car is running on track, in pit or in the garage (out of the race).

Im in Canada. I get the American networks NBC,ABC,CBS & Fox, Canadian sports cable network TSN which carries alot of NASCAR races and the Speed International Feed in place of Speed (which is great because it carries everything racing-related from Fox Sports 1 & 2 with lots of replays...in some ways better than Speed....hoping it goes forever but I doubt it will). But no ESPN, NBC sports, FOX Sports or MAVtv. So for many Nationwide & some Sprint Cup after they go to ESPN, I can only follow on the nascar.com Leaderboard or Racebuddy if it is on.

I've used (the free version of) Racebuddy with relative success. But (far as I know) they haven't been offering it so far this year. I guess free access to pit radio feeds is a thing of the past.
 
I use XP pro and Chrome. That site is trash. I have to right click and open everything in a new tab. Left click works on nothing. Then, it is slow like 1985.
I go there for the leaderboard because the one on TV is terrible. At least I can see where everybody is running, well, the top twenty anyhow. If I want the
rest of it I have to open it in a new tab too. It's really more trouble than it is worth.

Nascar.com has been total trash ever since they "upgraded it". I got an e-mail from them a couple a weeks ago saying it was new and improved. It had a new look to it but it is the same old horse sheet.

I went in there like a week ago looking for the Truck race schedule and couldn't even find that. When you cant find something as simple as a schedule, you know your site is garbage.

The worst part is they don't seem to care, mostly I think because we're using PCs and not the "Social Media" websites.
 
Welcome to the forum j44 , hope we hear a lot more from you. I use foxsports.com racetrax . It's free and it's really great.
 
I just tried Nascar.com and it works! It works. First time in 2 years, everything works for me. Unreal...

Overnight, someone got it right.....finally. I have to take back everything I said.
