CBJSprague24 posted:LOL ARCA is currently live on FS1. I ended up turning it on and starting at the beginning thinking like, nah, that can't be true. I'll watch from the beginning and see what's up here. For real, Spotter: Are you lifting in the the corners? Toni: I was but I'm not now. Spotter: You can't do that! It has to be wide open the entire time! The ARCA series has a stigma, on plate tracks especially, and it is unreal how they back it up every time. It was like an iRacing race. Driver being told how to drive by a spotter, Lining up 3 wide on a restart because cars are in the wrong position, a car under yellow bump drafting, a car that was trying to slow down, full throttle into a 3 wide position until they all hit each other, and a driver changing lanes while holding the radio button so that the spotter couldn't tell him not to change lanes. Oh and also a spotter reminding a driver that it wasn't iRacing and there wasn't a reset button with about 6 to go. That was told to the 43 car driver and I have to say I was pulling for that 43 car at the end before the last yellow because he was really making moves to get to the front.

the only way to prevent ARCA braking is to just never use the brakes and go full throttle green to checkers, sounds like this spotter knows something

Follow-up to my quest for CMS Coca-Cola 600 info -- Got tickets in the Terrace boxes right at pit entrance after Turn 4. About 30 rows up, and the pricier tickets included a buffet, so I'm gonna have to go hungry. Also got pre-race pit passes. Hopefully RCR will come through and give us a tour. Staying at a hotel 1.4 miles away, so it'll be a walk to and from, but not too bad. The only down side I see so far is that I can't carry any beer in the pit, so I'm stuck either bumming some off a friendly redneck, or paying $8 per.

The boxes are nice. I did that 10 or so years ago. The buffet is not really worth it, they have to shuffle everyone in and out in a time slot so you don't get much time to eat and enjoy.

Dang, I assumed it was just a graze-as-the-day-goes... do you at least get multiple time slots through the race? It's long, that was a factor in my decision. Then again, the seats are really good too, so welp.

When the gently caress is this race gonna actually start??

There is a dining room with tables that overlook the track. So you shuffle in, shuffle through the buffet line, shuffle to your assigned table, eat, shuffle out. I won't say it's a rush, you might even have time to grab 2nds, but it's not a nice relaxing dinner. It makes sense because they need to turn those tables over several times to get everyone through in time. Food was good though.

Stages bunch them back up I'm especially annoyed by instead of 2 short stages and 1 long stage, that they have gone with 65 65 and 70 lap stages so there won't be any lengthy periods of green.

Not saying I'm rooting for his car to explode, but maybe that hilarious failure where the back of the car just loving snaps and it looks like half the car is being dragged around the track? I wouldn't complain if that happened to him and yes I would lol stab fucked around with this message at 22:30 on Feb 20, 2022 |

Throwing it to split screen commercial while a crash is happening is the most Fox thing ever. The smallest market Sinclair college sports are better than most of Fox's sports broadcasts. I will never pay for whatever their peacock competitor is.

I know Stenhouse was born to DNF but Keselowski is the only guy who would be allowed to drive like he does "and Brad barely missed that" He did that!

Race was good, finish was good, would rather have had a Blaney/Wallace photo finish though. Don’t dislike Cindric at all but would have rather seen some others up there. They hosed the race from the beginning with the 65-65-70 format. Should have been 50-50-100.
