Guy looks like young Jim Cornette in a wig. Why do trannies have to invade every single fucking space? Even the ones filled with good ol' boys who want to enjoy cars turning left and going fast?

$1000 says this is due to the retarded diversity initiatives the Nascar suits are pushing. They have tried for decades to make a star female driver, and a female driver who's ALSO a troon? Add the alphabet people soup to the mix! Never mind that the 'Dega rednecks might actually riot if a troon gets let into the series. At least this guy won't get anywhere to see that happen.
 
A video going over the nepotism in NASCAR.


Someone made this useful guide for it back in March.

The irony of Larson being a d4d driver.

Herbst requires a double mention. Not only is it a primary sponsor thing but the Herbst family is huge in off-road racing which means they know how all this stuff works.

I love Elly, but really wish he would have also gone into the drivers who got into the sport due to their family being major sponsors or the diversity drivers. If he can talk about Brad being a nepo baby just because he drove for his dad's one-car operation to start his career, he definitely can talk about the drivers who got into the sport due to Nascar themselves literally funding their careers. That needed to be longer than 11 minutes.

Also, Ty Gibbs being ranked as a worse nepobaby than Austin Dillon? Grandbaby Ty is hateable but clearly had talent in Xfinity and I think his current performance is due to a bad mental state rather than running out of talent. Austin Dillon, on the other hand, is Nascar's Lance Stroll. He's been stinking up the series for almost a decade, wrecking, doing stupid stuff, and being a douchebag off-track.

Ty being the Gibbs driver with the longest winless streak is surprising, though. I didn't even realize he's been in Cup that long.

Of the diversity drivers still in the series, one is the Max Verstappen of stock cars (and got fired for saying the no no word), one went the d4d route despite having Carlos Slim throwing a shitload of money behind him (and is about to get fired again because he's pretty mediocre), and the third is the most hated driver in the sport today despite the Nascar suits, media, and sponsors trying desperately to make him a star.

It's deeply funny that they're having a whole goddamn foreign race this year just for Suarez and he's so intensely fucking mid. Like as far as 'winning the Mexico City race' goes he's arguably the third favorite driver in his 3-car team. (Only arguable with Chastain, he's fucking parsecs behind SVG on road courses)

He's the 4th best driver in a 3 car team if you count Zilisch. No wonder Carlos Slim cut him off.

I'll admit, when Paul Menard debuted I did not put two and two together that his family was also sponsoring the car. We need the follow up video.

On the topic of Bubba being hated? I think 90% of his heat is deserved for doing things like hooking the right rear, but I think fans that are still pissed about the Noose thing need to cut him some slack. Company President Steve Phelps was the one who took one look at it and said "that's a noose!" The crew member who reported it should have been told that NASCAR security would follow up on the matter and report back after reviewing video of the garage area. For competition reasons, access to the pits is tightly controlled, and in 2020, there were no fans on the premises, further simplifying an investigation. It was Phelps that literally broke down in tears at the sight of a particularly fancy knot at the end of a pullrope and proceeded to call the FBI.

Part of the reason why Bubba's so hated is that corporate and sponsors love him (Look at the shareholder value! Look at the diversity!), and the suits obviously hate the NASCAR fanbase and would love to get rid of the rednecks for a mainstream audience. NASCAR literally banned the Confederate flag, including in campsites, just for Bubba, although I guarantee you the suits were just fishing for a reason. However, there's no opportunity for fans to boo Phelps, O'Donnell, Kennedy, etc., so they boo Bubba. He does deserve a lot of criticism for being a hotheaded asshole, and he's put his foot in his mouth multiple times by directly and indirectly implying the fans were racists instead of thanking them for their support. But part of the hate is because he's the most visible lightning rod for the good ol' boys to express their displeasure with NASCAR management.
 
maybe my northerners flowing in me but i never liked the confederate fla. all though im glad that nascar hasnt become commercial and is still a bunch of good old boys for now.

He is married to a white wife, and fiscally pushes himself around other drivers fiscally, verbally, or with his car. He is basically an boondocks skit Uncle Tom of Nascar.
 
Amazon Prime released the first 2 parts of their Earnhardt Documentary today, next 2 parts come out on the 26th I believe. Coke 600 is this Sunday on Prime too.
