I like the chase, but I don't like it when they call it the "play offs". I'm not a foosball fan if you couldn't tell.

I would like to see them rearrange the format though. Throw a road course in there, and just mix it up.

I would love to get a full hood off of a raced car.

Re: NASCAR thread

What an ending to what could have been a snoozer. A Chevy running a Toyota into the wall to put a Ford into the final four!
And no Chevys in the championship finale.

Re: NASCAR thread

I watched the Daytona 500 and that was enough for me. This stage racing is retarded. Once they deviated from the points system back in 2003 after Kenseth blew everyone else away in points, they ruined it. The system to determine a champion got worse and worse. I won't watch it anymore.

Re: NASCAR thread

Glad Kenseth got another W. He will be missed in the sport if he doesn't come up with a ride between now and next year.

Excited for Homestead!

Re: NASCAR thread

And the scripted crap continues.
Should have known the strongest cars out there (Fords) would stand a chance.
#3 wins exactly 20 years after the only other win by a car bearing #3.
I am/was hoping for a chance to see a Mustang running Cup next year, but by then it probably won't matter. They'll be running at state and county fairs by then.

Re: NASCAR thread

I don't like the stage racing. They might as well run 2 heat races and run the main race with who's left. Guess I need to do like I do in basketball. Just wait till there's two minutes left then tune in.

Re: NASCAR thread

I haven't really liked NASCAR much since the "S" no longer meant something.

But...I do still watch. Mainly to see the crashes.

Re: NASCAR thread

This is the first year I haven't watched the Daytona 500 in over 20 years. They completely ruined it with all their stupid new ideas. When I first started going to these races in the late 90's it was like being stuffed into a sardine can in the stands. Now, their lucky to fill half the stands.

Re: NASCAR thread

Would have been even better if Johnson hadn't taken out the woods bros. car Sunday and crashed half the field in the process. Jerk.

NASCAR blames empty seats on hotels...

Apparently it is much easier to find blame on the outside than from looking within.

Re: NASCAR thread

They're just discovering NOW that it's expensive to see a Nascar race? It's only been that way for the past 25 years.

I've seen the Bristol night race a couple times in the last 5 years. One year we camped, which was a ton of fun and not expensive, provided you have a camper already. The other year we rented a house in town for two nights, nearby to the track, that slept four people comfortably, for roughly what a single hotel room would have cost....and that's for the night race which is usually far more desirable to see. Blaming people not coming to a race on hotels being too expensive is like airlines blaming people for not flying on the beers in the terminal being too expensive. It's classic deflection.

Re: NASCAR thread

This could be the greatest NASCAR season even. Denny Hamlin went out today when his daughter switched off the viewscreens to his I-Racing rig with the remote. Another driver, earlier in the virtual race season crashed out when his dog jumped in his lap, and we've had various drivers penalized and even lose sponsors due to their actions in the virtual racing year that is our new world.

Are they considering this the actual season now? I haven't watched tv in 6 weeks lol.

Re: NASCAR thread

None of it is official, as all drivers aren't participating, but one of the drivers lost a real sponsor after using an inappropriate words on air. It's less than enthralling, but somewhat entertaining.
