Also have to mention that Kevin Harvick is coming off like a total pussy in regards to his newfound rivalry with Chase Elliott.
 
Let's go Brandon
Fuck Denny Hamlin

Hope everyone is ready for tomorrow's race. Should be fun. Part of me wants Larson to win, just because all the shit he went through last year for dropping the dreaded word "nigger." But also part of me wants Elliot to win, because I like him and to show that NASCAR's playoff system is fucking retarded. Larson should be the winner, but watching the sanctioning body squirm would make me feel better if the fans finally tell them to fuck off with this bullshit points shit.

I keep hoping I wake up as a young lad again to watch this absolute kino again.
 
Any reason as to why they won't race in the Daytona road course anymore? And move the Busch Clash to a makeshift track at the LA Memorial Coliseum of all places?
Because other than that, and the finale still remaining in Phoenix, next year's schedule is pretty good.

Daytona being a road course was just a temporary move by NASCAR so that they could hopefully attract other road courses offer their tracks. They got WorldWide up near Saint Louis now, so that should help. As for the Coliseum; its a literal meme track, and NASCAR is praying it can get the rich faggots in the Hollywood hills to buy up tickets. I'm thankful its not a real race in the season.
 
Some guys wonder if NASCAR have a death wish.

Does NASCAR have a death wish?​

By Thomas Lifson

A pair of reports yesterday lead me to question the sanity of the management of NASCAR, the privately held giant of the sport of stock car racing. While I am far from an expert on auto racing, and have never been to a NASCAR race, I have a rough idea of who attends their races and what the political preferences of the fans are.
The first report comes via Breitbart:
NASCAR has officially canceled driver Brandon Brown’s sponsorship deal with the “Let’s Go Brandon” cryptocurrency purveyor.
At the end of December, Brown announced that he was signing a deal for LGBcoin to sponsor his race team going forward.

Brown later revealed that NASCAR sent a written letter approving the deal, so they went forward and even spent the money to make up the car’s LGBcoin paint scheme.
But on Jan. 3, NASCAR abruptly put a halt to the deal, telling Brown that the decision to allow the sponsorship needed to be “reviewed at a higher level” in the NASCAR leadership.
Now it appears that NASCAR has officially denied Brown’s request to sanction to LGBcoin sponsorship deal, according to the Washington Times.
NASCAR claims that, as far back as November, they made it clear that no wording or imagery referencing the “Let’s Go, Brandon” chant would be allowed, according to the Washington Post.

The entire “Let’s go Brandon” craze began at a NASCAR track when an NBC reporter pretended the crowd chanting “F**k Joe Biden” were instead chanting “Let’s go Brandon,” in celebration of the victory of Brandon Brown, whom she was interviewing live on-air.
So, we have pretty good idea that NASCAR fans tend to be political conservatives. If the sport’s Southern origins and male, blue collar atmosphere were not clues enough.
The second report comes from Nascar.com:
Carolinas LGBT+ Chamber of Commerce, one of the largest LGBT Chambers within the region pushing for equitable change within the workplace and marketplace, announced Wednesday that NASCAR will become the organization’s Diversity, Equity & Inclusion partner for the 2022 term. This is the first time NASCAR has partnered with an LGBT Chamber of Commerce.
The Chamber’s annual DE&I partnership funds and supports all of its training and programming in diversity, equity and inclusion, and it allows the organization to have a more expansive reach throughout the region.

DE&I, not homosexuality itself, is the problem here. The Trump administration was notably gay friendly and no doubt there are many gay and lesbian racing fans, who are welcome at Darlington, Daytona Beach and other NASCAR venues. But DE &I is clearly a tool of the far left, and finds its strongest base in higher education, another bastion of the far left. These are not popular among fans who chant FJB.
What are they thinking at NASCAR?
The France family that founded and still owns NASCAR reportedly are billionaires. Forbes called them the 53rd richest family in the US in 2015, with a net worth north of $5 billion. Have they been seduced by the social life of the ultra-rich and lost touch with their fan base?

Also, trying to get spics to watch because they have one in Cup now, that's why you go to LA. Even Suarez in practice today was all "Aw man this is the closest we can get to racing in meh-hee-co!"

I'm making my every-couple-years attempt to watch Cup again so I can talk about it with dad, driven on by the new car. Iiiii dunno if it's going to stick this time either. More road courses is cool with me, at least.
 
The Coliseum course looks like a garbage but I'm glad that NASCAR is back. Excited for the new cars and the new teams for drivers. I just wish they'd quit the bullshit with Indy and just bring back the Brickyard 400 again.

Brickyard is pure kino. It's a damn shame it's been gone for a meme course I can't stand to watch for more than 5 minutes.

It's the year of Wrecked Alaska!

Floyd Mayweather's team. NASCAR was created out of the 'shine era, and from Lloyd Seay to Junior Johnson to Rick Hendrick, you've had plenty of people involved in crime and who've gone to prison. But with people who've had SEC trouble in the recent past coming in as owners and sports betting taking off... I wonder when we'll have the first 'wreck 'em for mob money' scandal.
 
I thought the Clash was dreadfully boring. If you're up front, well you can basically count on staying up front. Not a whole lot of room to pass either.

Would rather them hit up an older track like Rockingham instead.

Repaving North Wilkesboro (but not completely rehabbing the facilities) would have been significantly cheaper (according to the team trying to save the track) than that throwaway track and would've had a lasting legacy.

The Rock would've worked too. But none of that is heavy in minority and coastal appeal which is what the Frances want, or so it seems.
 
Bubba Wallace is the Lewis Hamilton of NASCAR, except with none of the actual talent to make use of his good car.

Whiny faggot? Check. Protected by the association and by fanboys? Check. Fans insist he's the greatest thing that happened to the sport? Check. Pulls the race card whenever he feels threatened by the truth? Check. Coasts on an obvious hoax to insist he's persecuted? Check. Can't call him on his bullshit or a bunch of soyboys call you racist? Check. More interested in being a mediatic sensation? Fucking check!

Congratulations, NASCAR. You have ditched a loyal fanbase and sowed discord among new potential fans. All to get "the most watched Clash in history."

As I mentioned above I'm 'coming back' this year so I only knew noosegate and it may be my Farms-fostered rising racism but holy fuck, this guy.

He leads EVERY FUCKING PROMO. For a guy who's midpack at best. How the fuck does that happen? And his performance in the clash was fucking abysmal. He managed to get in good spots but the moment the tires came in and people had the grip to go for passes he just plunged to the back. And it seemed like he was slamming the bump button to get back up front. Is that how he is all the time? It was funny during the Qualifier you could see Denny Hamlin watch him race and he sure looked like he was evaluating his life choices.

Last year I heard the whole story about 'first black guy to win in modern Cup' and I was 'oh hey that's cool', then I found out it was a fucking rainout. *slow wanking motion*

Lewis was a totally different story. Dude's lost me at this point with the whining but the first couple years he was fucking amazing to watch.

ETA: Coming back to all this and listening to some of the mainstream NASCAR reporting made me realize just how utterly bowed the journos on the Cup beat are. Every idea that comes down from on high is AMAZING. BRILLIANT. And then the obligatory "Well, I wasn't sure, but it sure turned out GREAT," trying to gaslight people into thinking everything's good. I guess that's what happens when someone owns the whole damn thing and you really -really- don't want to be told you're not in the good boy's club anymore.

I know it's an awfully gay opinion but I genuinely wish NASCAR could have just stayed a regional sport between good ol' boys.

It's not a terribly gay opinion. Medium-level TV coverage and the occasional foray into good ol' boy compatible areas of the country, the way it was in the 80s wouldn't be a terrible route.

Back to Bubba for a minute, and not because I want to sperg more, there's news: One of his friends, a football player, got hired by NASCAR as an 'engagement advisor' which he then spun into 'Chief Engagement Officer'. And said football player chimped out the other night. Ooooops.

Yeah, so this? lol.

So they had some yuros design a Cup car. That already is an iffy prospect, but all the NASCAR media assured me that the teams, the makers, the crews all know what they're doing despite the learning curve. So let's see, and this is just what I think 'needs fixing' in relatively short order, most of these have been an issue all week:
  • Wheel problems. Couple fell off (1-3 depending on the details of some), some won't go on or come off. "The media" I listened to crowed about how this was going to somehow make loose wheels less common and I don't buy it.
  • The anti-flip flaps. The hood ones flap constantly in the driver's view and fall the fuck off, and the diffuser one snaps down pretty frequently and has to be taped up, which to me is an iffy fix safety-wise.
  • The fucking thing high centers itself on flat pavement if you lose two tires, to the point of pretty much always needing recovery assistance.
It seems like an okay car but man there's gonna be more teething. Oh, also we flipped one but I don't think that was at all car-attributable.
