Hmm, What I got out of your last 2 posts was you like Denny and despise KDB. Give me a thumbs up if I got that correct.![]()

Quite a few questions about about the documentary in the fan survey. A lot about exhibition races also.The production was exceptional...the timing was perfect...just awesome all the way around. Nailed it.
I loved that the driver focus stayed on the racing.....dropping kids off at school to head to the sim....that kind of thing....instead of look at me get in my jet and head to Bali.....Quite a few questions about about the documentary in the fan survey. A lot about exhibition races also.
Netflix usually does a great job with production, they pump out a lot of quality stuff.I watched the first three episodes last night, and thought it was great. I think they do a really good job of appealing to the hardcore NASCAR fan, casual race fan, as well as someone that has never seen a race in their lives. That's tough to balance but I think they nailed it.
Kyle Busch is likeable because he finally humanized himself a few years ago and shared he and Samantha's story with infertility. He's mellowed out. I wouldn't know, yet, but parenthood seems to do that to you.Kyle Busch is only more likeable now because he drives a Chevy.
Denny can be a doofus, but he cares SO much about this sport, being an ambassador, and growing it.Denny is a smart guy. He is building his fan base at 42....while people bitch about his podcast...which was featured.....while people bitch about his arrogance.....which was featured....while they bitch about his ownership....which was featured.....and where, may I ask was Kyle ****** Bush in the series? Nowhere. There was a void....Denny filled it. No wonder JGR resigned him at a price point agreeable to his value....where, in contrast....KFB brought nothing but his mouth and wrecked Next Gens.

Co-sign on Blaney’s GF, and he comes off like a guy you‘d enjoy finishing a nice bottle of whiskey with.Enjoyed episode 3. Ross actually comes off as likeable to me and his portion of the episode was pretty neat. Blaney’s gf is a looker, and it was interesting to finally get to meet him in the series,he’s a cool dude. I want more, cant wait for episodes 4&5.

Thank you just saw this nowCongrats, Snappy![]()
Be fun to follow drivers through big races such as Daytona 500, World 600, Brickyard 400, Southern 500, All Star Race and Street race.I really hope the next season focuses on more than just the playoffs
Btw did anyone else think Denny using a helicopter to go everywhere is just a bit too much?
Andy Petree takes his chopper to and from work (RCR) nearly every day.Really enjoyed this and hope they do even more similar stuff next year to help tide us over through the off season…longest 3 months of the year. I’d even take that Kevin James comedy back. But Speed was so well done.

Honest. If I had the money Dennis has….. as someone who sits in about 3-4 hours of traffic a week with the to/from work commute, I could really find better use of my time and then make my time more productive. So I’d probably use a helicopter too, use it to fly over the stupidity.Agreed, and it doesn't surprise me. He's a tool and that's pretty well known. And he has been doing this for years. A friend of a friend used to play basketball with Denny a while back. He would show up to the court in his helicopter just to try and look cool

To me the difference is that some people that have that stuff are very modest about it and well some people like Denny like to be brag about themselves and make sure everyone knows what they have. I don't have any respect for the 2nd group of people.Agreed, and it doesn't surprise me. He's a tool and that's pretty well known. And he has been doing this for years.

I rather be a tool than sit in traffic. If you had a helicopter and enough money to use it why wouldn't you? Seems to me that your an idiot if you don't use it, not for using. I don't like Denny at all, but can't really knock him for doing the same thing any of us would do (rather they care to admit it or not).
That has been Elliott's M.O. from the beginning. He's a private person, I would call him an introvert, Blaney is similar. No party animal, or social "happenings". See Denny Hamlin.Was listening to Chase on the DJD and he admitted he's yet to watch the series and even more or less came out and said that if they were ask him to be part of it for season 2 he mostly likely wouldn't do it. Said he's not really interested in anything that doesn't make him go faster. Things like this baffle me as to how he remains the most popular driver? How can you make the sport better if you're most popular driver refuses to help you out?
The grand question of why everyone tells us introverts to speak up instead of telling extroverts to shut up. Quiet people contribute things in our own way not everyone has to be an annoying loud mouth. Chase is perfectly fine as he is. Popularity has no basis on what you say.That has been Elliott's M.O. from the beginning. He's a private person, I would call him an introvert, Blaney is similar.

I don’t think it would hurt to be involved for a single episode or two. Long term they are going to need more drivers engaged and involved or else it’ll dry out pretty quickly if only five or six dudes are willing to open up each year.Was listening to Chase on the DJD and he admitted he's yet to watch the series and even more or less came out and said that if they were ask him to be part of it for season 2 he mostly likely wouldn't do it.

Remember, MPD isn't conducted scientifically. People can vote daily during the voting period. It's more a measure of which driver has the most motivated fan base.Things like this baffle me as to how he remains the most popular driver?
