THE CLASH

[Revman]

Wasnt that the problem ?

The empty colosseum was due to the wonky playoff format. The almost full season championship would have packed that thing. The rebellion is over.

Lol. Speaking of problems. L.A. Coliseum capacity 77,500...Bowman Grey 17,000. I wonder how many will show up in the snow? They could race almost anywhere and match or exceed 17,000 lol. They can fill Bowman Gray up and they will still lose money.

The colusseum races were non-points exhibitions. How does the championship format affect attendance for something that doesn't count either way?

The Colosseum is empty and it is going to be a sunny 85 again today.

Would be empty if the race was there or not

Ok

I believe it had around 35,000 to 40,000 in attendance the last time. That is 2 1/2 times more than Bowman Gray if it was full lol.

Toyota's in the shop. Transmission and a few other things.

Once it's fixed, I'll have the Ford restored.

Hope Mike Joy and all the others are enjoying their snow days at the hotel.

Do you, or do you really want the temperatures to warm back up? I could easily accept the snow if we could lose the sub-freezing temps. If the snow goes but the cold stays, I'll be just as displeased.

Just me.

UPDATE: It's still not gone.

Tongue and cheek....just hoping that the format fixes literally everything.

Maybe we bag it, and head to Daytona.

I'd say 40% of the white stuff melted/blew off my truck today. Not gonna go out and touch anything until Wed when supposed to warm up some. Looking at single digit overnight temps Mon & Tuesday. OUCH!

None of it really melted here. It just compacted itself.

Honestly it’s getting comical at this point watching them try to pull this off, and I’m not sure if they are going to end up having time or not. I hope they do. If not I wonder what will happen. There is no precedent for this with an exhibition race. Other ones have been rescheduled to the end of the season etc in extreme case in the last, it those weee points races. It’s kind of entertaining watching.

That being said, regardless, I’m in a bit of a pretty bad emergency situation possibly and may not be getting to watch anything for a while unless I find a way to resolve it, which is looking increasingly more unlikely, more unlikely than them being able to pull off this race unfortunately. Perfect timing with Nascar coming back, which is basically the only thing I truly enjoy anymore other than my two dogs.

So if they do I really hope you guys can enjoy it as great little kickoff for the season.

It is flat and only a quarter mile, they should be able to easily vortex the place.

You lost dude, it's time to care who wins the championship again. Time to move on, put your brave Yota face on.

When it was at Daytona, it was easier to reschedule since everyone was already there and would be there until the 500. There was no rush to get back so you can prep for Daytona.

You thought they raced the same car for both races? I don't think so. The clash cars were throw away cars.

See? Much safer than behind a truck!
