Good for Gateway. Naturally, the only way an independent track gains a date is if one loses one because lol if ISC is giving up a date at A Bad Track.

I get the feeling other than a couple of minor changes that the schedule will probably be a massive nothingburger.

Yeah that is why I thought it was just a rumor to kind of like gain insight on what kind of interest there would be. If I were a car owner I'd be loving pissed. I gotta get 2 cars and my whole crew out there for a week, then get them all back for Daytona and the load up and go out west again right after? So out west for Clash, back east for Daytona, then 3 races out west, then back for Atlanta, then back halfway across the country for COTA then back east for a stint. Oh and no off weeks. Actually I just looked over the schedule and the ONLY off week is June 19th. That is a loving grind man. 37 weeks, 36 races.

Really not impressed with the schedule. If Richmond isn't a Saturday night, it's a no for me. April 3 probably won't be cold, but it may not be nice. And a Sunday afternoon in the middle of August? That's gonna be a ticket sales failure.

Pocono is consistently the best racing in recent years, weather issues aside, so we knew it was going down to 1 race, but this still sucks.

Holy gently caress what is with the day races in July and August in places which are prone to be sweltering? Who at NBC thinks that a day race in July in Atlanta is something people want to buy tickets to?

Kevin Harvick's #1 Fan!

I'm generally fine with the schedule, however:

Running the Clash with the new cars in what is almost sure to be a wreckfest while the teams have the current inventory to write off: Dumb.

Running on a night race on Easter Sunday instead of Saturday night: Dumb.

One off-weekend? I'm missing the Olympic break already.

And I'm still salty about Daytona losing the July 4th weekend even though this will be the third year of that.

What's fascinating to me is two drivers who were considered high level talents only to completely flame out in the mid 2000s, Yeley and Reed Sorenson, keep plodding along in either backmarker Cup cars or mediocre rides in the lower series.

Why?

That was a fun series to watch. I really like the local driver aspect to it. I could do with a little bit less of the Paul Tracy professional wrestling aspect to it but it's not going to stop me from watching it. Like I get it, it's a show they're putting on so put on a show. Bang fenders, rub each other, wreck each other under yellow, whatever you want. But then don't get out of the car and do a wrestling promo. It just seemed like fake nonsense. Like are you really that mad dude? I guess PT maybe really was since he's kind of a nut but come on, just have fun with it.

I mean it's Paul Tracy, he was actually pretty mad. SRX was a fantastic series and I can't wait for whatever they get going for it next year!

Also Deegan put up a video with his reactions in the trailer after 1 of the races... she does a lot of Vlogs with her racing career and general life of a racer...
