What is Spire's connection to Hendrick? Bowman, Elliott, and Larson all raced for Spire and the Spire truck ran a Hendrickcars.com livery but I cant seem to find a business/official connection between them or maybe im just dumb

Yeah they have really watered down the manufacturers with the last few iterations of cars so that they almost all look exactly the same so it doesn't really matter. It doesn't even matter to most of the owners except the big 3 for each manufacturer, Hendrick/Chevy, Penske/Ford, Gibbs/Toyota. Most of the smaller teams will just run whoever they can get the most support from though I doubt Roush would ever leave Ford nor Childress ever leave Chevy. Tony Stewart made such a big deal about keeping partnered with Chevy for all his teams when Gibbs switched from GM to Toyota I never thought he would switch, especially since his Cup program was getting Hendrick partnership help but Stewart/Haas has been running Ford for what like 5 or 6 years now? Honestly I kind of miss the days of teams complaining about aero advantage because of the nose of this manufacturer over that manufacturer and whatnot and now all 3 manufacturers have to fit the same templates. Most of the drivers don't even have sponsorship identity or even number identity since so many of them jump teams now so it's basically you find a few drivers you like and you just follow them wherever they go and hope for the best.

It's just fun to root for someone, doesnt really matter who

Fun fact Toyota has more American employees than Chevy, and almost as many as Ford. So maybe the cognitive dissonance is too much. Still, good to know. I liked the 23XI drivers, and I respect Denny. Joey seems like a weasel and Ross seems like a guy who would fight you in a bar after he drank too many shots of Jack. He gets points for the video game move though, I remember see that clip and it’s what honestly got me wondering what was going on in NASCAR.

So maybe the cognitive dissonance is too much. a good chunk of toyotas are made in America too, so its always been a silly argument. Even if they were all designed, made, and manafactured in Japan, for me (a Chevy/GM fan) that would be awesome, an opportunity to compete and show American cars are better. I think Toyota joining wouldnt have been as upsetting for fans if brands like Dodge hadnt left. Im torn on 23XI personally. I hate Denny but I love Michael Jordan.

mischief posted:Lot of people are really divided on Ross but if you like a guy willing to make dumb decisions and race everyone around him like it is the last lap every lap he's your guy. Larson is similar but he gets a lot of poo poo here for some pretty crappy behavior online a while back. Personally I like them both. This a very informative and good post.

Oldsmobile and Buick only ran Cup until the early-mid ‘90s, and for a few years it was just Chevy, Pontiac and Ford. It’s been at a weird point of stasis for some time, and I’d honestly be surprised if anyone hated Toyota because of the Japanese heritage instead of the teams running them. Also it was much more fun when GM had four brands competing.

It sounds like Logano cut holes or removed fabric from his left glove so it wouldn't have as much drag when he stuck it out the net to signal he is going to pit Completely insane behavior https://x.com/knighter01/status/1761824476512006210?s=46&t=CF3Yg9XgdXL6BGcgu4WIXQ skaboomizzy fucked around with this message at 20:41 on Feb 25, 2024 |
