Saucer Crab posted:Stock cars on road courses is almost always a blast to watch and my crazy fantasy scheduling would probably be 1/3 road courses if not more. unfortunately nascar road races are consistently the races with the lowest viewership numbers every year apparently people prefer shitholes like chicagoland for some ungodly reason e: oh christ that new dumb race format is gonna affect the road races too huh, welp

nascar is losing fans because the on-track product is loving terrible and their championship format is loving terrible and confusing since they change it every drat year. 'lack of danger' has gently caress-all to do with it. chasing the midwest or west coast also has nothing to do with it directly although the tracks in those areas are really poo poo by and large and cost us dates on better eastern tracks. road tracks won't help because sonoma and the glen are consistently the least-watched races all year. the fix is to chop the schedule down to 30 races, dump some of the really really bad tracks, make the racing package not be complete rear end by removing a bunch of aero, and stick to one single points system that is easy to follow. i expect nascar to do exactly zero of these things.

FuzzySkinner posted:Jesus Viking, how many short tracks does New England, New York , and New Jersey HAVE? Just found out about this one (which has sadly closed..) via a clip of the movie "Arthur" i mean just within an hour of where i used to live, we had albany-saratoga (a 5 minute drive from my house), lebanon valley (went here a whole lot) and fonda (never went because everyone said it sucks) northeast is just absolutely littered with short tracks

the vast majority of tracks nascar races at do not need two dates and they really really ought to roll the schedule back to 30 races

dentist toy box posted:The Charlotte roval has to be the worst roval in existence, But I mean the race is a guaranteed demolition derby though. Hopefully they'll update the track? no. nothing will ever top kansas' roval. this is seriously a real thing they made. the real winning move would've been not putting vegas in the chase, keeping new hampshire and using that roval, it's actually good for what it is.

iospace posted:I like the Fontana roval. It at least isn't "Oh, let's take nearly the entire oval, and make them do a small detour for a bit, and then have them come out right by where they came in!" by the low standards of rovals it's one of the better ones. pocono has an alright layout as well, so does homestead (i was pleasantly surprised how much i enjoyed homestead's roval in forza 6). they're all better than fuckin charlotte at the very least, that's for goddamn sure.

iospace posted:Indeed. The Chase is exactly when it became painfully obvious that they were *ahem* chasing casuals. Most people who weren't into racing would probably complain "WHY DOESN'T THE PERSON WHO WIN THE MOST WIN IT ALL " like other sports. It's by far the dumbest thing, and I will never stop making GBS threads on it. jimmie has one of the highest win rates of any driver in nascar history, he'd still be ridiculously impressive and successful regardless of whether the chase happened.

I'd say good riddance. they need to let xfinity die and start bringing trucks back to short tracks like pikes peak and south boston instead of largely sharing the calender with cup so it has its own identity beyond 'i dunno it's like cup but with trucks instead'

Human Grand Prix posted:The internet was clamouring for non-luxury sports sedan with manual transmission. This one even had the best V8 ever! GM gave them one and nobody bought it. Anybody that had the means to buy one probably just purchased a Camaro *SUPRISE!* Now, the entire internet is backpedalling saying that the SS was too expensive/looked too bland/didn't perform well enough (???) so that's why they didn't buy one. It's total bullshit - anybody that wants a fast American car with a V8 either A.) Gets a muscle car or B.) Gets a muscle car. the real issue is that car culture as a whole seems like it is kinda dying right now.
