VikingSkull posted:Dude is a vehicular engineer who got noticed after his dad paved his way to national midgets for him. While I'll agree that he had to make it the rest of the way, he was one of the first of the "holy poo poo that sprint car guy in the 20 looks fast hire all sprinters" guys Do you remember "holy crap Jacques Villeneuve qualified 6th at Talladega, hire all open-wheelers!" then they all disappeared just as quickly? Good times.

So when they put the 20 minute caution rule into the Cup series (and you know they will) is that the point where you stop watching?

I long knew Jeff Gordon retiring would be a tipping point for me and I've decided to stick around. I don't quite know what the breaking point would be for this fan. I need help, guys.  Muddy Burphy posted:I haven't looked at all the details, but I'd be shocked if there are no provisionals. It would make sense but, perusing Twitter, apparently there are no provisionals, and also no engine changes.: https://twitter.com/Knighter01/status/689863652925644800 https://twitter.com/Noble_Jim/status/689931993421869056

I predict more changes next winter. look for this announcement: With the roll out of the Caution clock being a huge success, NASCAR announces they are bringing push to pass technology to Cup racing. Each driver will be able to press a button 15 times during the race and their car will have 50 extra Horsepower for 30 seconds. Drivers can earn an additional push to push during each caution flag by winning the NAPA internet fan vote. The NAPA internet fan vote will be available for only 2 minutes from the moment the Yellow flag is displayed. Login to NAPA.COM for more information

One driver thinks Brian France's job performance should be a major part of NASCAR's seemingly endless Continuous Improvement Plan, and doesn't give a gently caress about hiding it. You'll never guess who it is.quote:“I want to see him walking through the garage more. I want to see him being more active than just showing up and patting the sponsors on the back and going up in the suite. I want to see him down there in the trenches with everybody and understanding what’s truly going on. I think that’s where he needs to be for awhile.” http://usat.ly/1PlAuBG No fucks given: Then, Now, Always. e- Audio: https://soundcloud.com/siriusxmnascar/tony-stewart-explains-why-he-isnt-afraid-to-speak-up-when-he-doesnt-like-what-he-hears-from-nascar CBJSprague24 fucked around with this message at 02:56 on Jan 22, 2016 |

Kyle Larson hates plate tracks I guess. Old shoe Cup driver chimes in on our groupquote:How many of the commenters have driven a cup car? I have I knew the risk, like the rest still loved it. Everyone has an opinion, bottom line is they are paid to drive. The body of work that qualifies his statement

I know I already answered this, but if NASCAR felt the need to pull some bullshit reason out of their rear end to suspend Tony for "actions detrimental" as a result of the Moody interview, that would probably be the gently caress it point. They won't, but I just realized that would be the line for this fan. daslog posted:I predict more changes next winter. look for this announcement: I've been waiting for P2P since Champ Car rolled it out.

The "sprint cup Napa fan vote app brought to you by samsung" will allow you to vote once each caution, you can however buy "gem packs" in app in order to vote more than once, subscribe to race buddy and get 2 extra votes per race.

Regan Smith replaces Alex Bowman at TBR in the 7 car. Truck teams can run crate motors this season if they so choose. e- Also, the Dash 4 Cash may be a Chase qualifier in NXS. Jayski says winning two Dash 4 Cash events "almost guarantees" a driver a Chase berth. NXS Chase fields the last three years (if it were in place): 2013- Hornish (1 win), Dillon, Smith (2), Sadler, Vickers, Allgaier, Scott, Bayne (1), Larson, Kligerman, Bowman, Piquet. 2014- Elliott (3 wins), Smith (1), Dillon (1), Sadler (1), Scott, Bayne, C. Buescher (1), Gaughan (1), Reed, J. Buescher, Cassill, Kwasniewski. (Chris Buescher DNQs for Daytona, but makes the Chase on points, a win, and attempting to qualify for Daytona.) 2015- Buescher (2 wins), Elliott (1), Dillon, Smith (1), Sadler, Bubba, Suarez, Scott, Gaughan, Reed (1), Clements, Chastain. (Blaney ineligible.) CBJSprague24 fucked around with this message at 05:53 on Jan 22, 2016 |

Alex Bowman apparently found out he had been fired by Tommy Baldwin Racing on Twitter. He'll still get nine races for JR Motorsports in Xfinity this season. Harvick, Jr, Kahne, and Elliott get the rest in that car. CBJSprague24 fucked around with this message at 18:47 on Jan 23, 2016 |

CBJSprague24 posted:Alex Bowman apparently found out he had been fired by Tommy Baldwin Racing on Twitter. That sucks. I like Bowman he seems cool from what I've seen of him through social media. I wouldn't mind seeing him do well and get some opportunities to move up or even get a full time Busch ride. I'd like to see what he can do in good equipment so the 9 races for JR will be pretty good test. As far as watching and complaining goes I'm sure I'll be doing plenty of both this year, as I have in years past. This last season is the first season I actually didn't watch every race. Whats weird is that I didn't start missing races until the Chase started. I didn't watch Chicago or New Hampshire and only saw about half of Kansas. This is coming from a guy who watches Dover in June when its 70 degrees and sunny out.
