NASCAR: eh, we'll repair the track in the middle of the race
 

no time to inspect and fix it before the race?!

just tuned in, and i see that they are fixing the track. ummm....couldn't we do that before the race started? they put in a new field for the super bowl, basketball courts are regularly replaced. new pitches for soccer before big matches....only NASCAR puts their show on TV racing on a ragged out track.

where did all that TV money go?

NASCAR

:rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl:

They just announced a few days ago they are going to reconfigure and repave the track. They tried to do it a few years ago but drivers asked them to hold off.

It's happened before years ago, had a huge chunk come up and damage cars...

They gave all their tv money to BLM.... Ya know cause whitey put a noose in a garage.

:withstupid:

NASCAR died when Earnhardt died.

Track repair is more exciting than NASCAR

Remember when the track jet drier got smoked and caught fire? Wasn't it Juan Pablo that hit it? That was exciting...

I was never a fan but you can’t help but know about NASCAR. I can’t think of any motorsport that took a bigger -and faster- downward turn than NASCAR. It was seemingly everywhere, then suddenly nowhere and everyone hated it.

And NASCAR seems tone deaf about the decline and is in denial.

Good memory :yesnod:

Before TV, it was a southern thing. Go outside to wash the car or work on it and turn on the radio to listen to the race. My dad started taking us to the July, race in Daytona Beach, FL. in the early '70s. Richard Petty, Cale Yarbrough, Allison Bros., David Pearson, etc...no cool suits, power steering, cookie cutter spec cars for everyone to parade around in like today. THEY RACED! Side by side, front to back, 3-4 wide. You built a car and brought it to race. Not just to parade around like today. The teams made money only racing and winning. No souvenirs, diecast deals, licensing deals, etc...I remember one of the first times they started selling t-shirts was for the Skoal Bandit. Dale Earnhardt was the first to start selling his name for endorsement deals - shirts, hats, and finally the mega-million diecast deals.

Drivers and crews would stay in the same hotels as the rest of us. I remember riding the elevator with several in the old days. You would go into a restaurant and one or more would be a the table beside of you.

I enjoyed it from the '70s-1980ish and lost interest. Then, started getting into it again from about 1998-2005. Lost all interest after that. They don't race anymore. Plenty are out there just to run around for several hrs., advertising their sponsors. They drive fast...they just don't race though. I also could no longer identify with their $30 million a yr., incomes.

I was also a huge fan of F1, NHRA, ALMS, and a couple others. They have ruined those series almost as badly, as NASCRAP. I don't follow any of it anymore and for almost the last decade.

I'm sure NASCAR is making tons of money off their only remaining demographic, black nationalists who hate America, hate white people, and apparently hate paying for merchandise when they can just steal it.

NASCAR should be rolling in the dough, now that they've rid themselves of all those beer swilling, Confederate flag waving good ol' boys that used to be their fanbase.

:iagree: That was pretty awesome :Jeff '79:

Probably in the minority here, but this season NASCAR has been more interesting for me than the previous ten. The 1.5 mile tri-ovals are still a bore fest. But, they competed on dirt, have added more road courses and actually put racing back in the mix. I still don't like the "playoff" format for racing. Every other series I know of, even the ones I raced, are based on a long campaign of strong racing. That is a really hard thing to do and should be the mark of a champion.

If your name is Pemberton or France, and you are involved with any part of NASCAR management, then you should be taken out and shot. The cars they drive should all be crushed. And if you ain't cheatin' you ain't tryin'

Rubbin is racin!!

I like engine building and car racing so I watch NASCAR.
IDGAFF what you golfing queers think.
I do what I want. :dance:

It went to Bubba and BLM to cover their asses in an attempt to stay afloat amid sinking ratings.

Dirt and more turns to the right aren't going to save NASCRAP.
