Yea, it was a rainy day and anybody that would even think about going probably would assume the race wasn't going to happen. And even then they basically ran half the race on Sunday and half the race on Monday.

But... Nascar viewing audience is going to keep declining. So many issues with the broadcasts from the changing cameras every 10 seconds to having a billion lovely commercials.

Tickets sold not in teh stands.. 48k in a 169k stadium.. :wheelchairsmiley: Back in my day you had to go on a waiting list to go to bristol

I only laugh when they say "the last great coloseum" and then the stands have like what like 40% fans or less in them..

NASCAR can't change the schedule until 2021 so :lol: here comes the All-Star package:

What was the logic for the track sanctioning agreement anyway? Another "Brian France Pretends He's Football" dickstep? :tif:


So like make the cars treat every track like Daytona? Cool now I can't argue with my friends that NASCAR is more than just mashing the gas and turning left

get ready for emptier fields in 2019 and 2020 I guess, a reflection of the stands.

Sorry but here in real 'merirca 8 or more cylinders is for racing. Them faggy little 6banger shits all them sissy European seriezs or wannbe European series without fenders use are for sissies and ladymen who can't handle the pure Power of 'merican muscle.

Is half the problem not, that in 2018 people can't/won't dedicate 3-5 hours per week, for 36 weeks, to follow racing?

I'd be thinking the exact opposite. 25-30 races, cut to 2-2.5 hours max, the big races not withstanding

This is why I'm mostly absent from NASCAR in the summer and then fall my gf and I fight over football or NASCAR.. she usually wins.

tried watching the bowman gray modified show.. Don't know if I can watch more than 1 EP.. the fake rear end tire sqweel sounds kills me I can't deal with shows that do that.

also still can't beleive how much money these guys have in racecars and haulers to race at a single track.

yeah I mean I watched the pilot show they did like what 3-7 years ago? and it was cool enough, they talk about their setup a little etc. After the show progressed it started to get drama levels of street outlaws which is stupid. I didn't get a chance to watch last night since I'm an old and it's past my bedtime. I'm :filez: ing it right now (althoguth it's probably avaliable on discovery on demand on my laptop) and it'll be something to put noise in my ear when I'm cooking or doing mundane tasks while working from home.

Yes they did it was after the first Bowman gray show.. I think it was called madhouse.

And or... Remove their win and penalize.
So you get a dnf for cheating and then you get penalty points on top.. if you are in the "playoff for the chase for the Winston cup stage one winners circle" you lose any of those points you accumulated for that race and then some.

this makes me sad. I feel like 550 hp at a 1.5 mile tri-oval means we're just going to have like 20 daytona's on the schedule.
