The Official NASCAR Talk Thread

I stick with the bowties. If Jeff gets knocked out I'll pull for Junior or Harvick.

I used to like Logano. But he is a idiot like Kyle.

I mainly like the bow ties. I'd like to see Larson get a better ride, like Kahne's after this season.

I never understood the affinity towards a certain manufacturer. I could care less of they drive a Fiat

 

[YankeeVol]

Though of the three, I'd go with Ford. Then Toyota and Chevy.

Not really the manufacturer but I've always been partial to those teams.

...for me it goes back to the first time I saw Bigfoot. It's just one of those random moments that left a permanent mark on me.


It's not that I don't appreciate other brands;as the chevelle is still one of my favorite cars. I still own a 2001 silverado.

But I am a ford guy to the bone.

I like Honda, but they aren't in NASCAR.

It keeps getting better

Trouble continues for Danica Patrick

Hard to blame her for mechanical issues.

Side note, Hamlin's interview after the race last night was pure gold. It's probably as close as we'll ever hear to any driver letting their true feelings slip about her having a Cup ride.

It's what I drive. But I couldn't care less about brand affiliation is racing.

Exactly.

Holy ish, NASCAR just suspended Kurt indefinitely.

 

[bleedorange0037]

The actual audio of Hamlin and Danica's "fight" is a pretty big disappointment. Hamlin literally sounds like a frustrated parent trying to teach a child how to do something. Also, Danica looks like a moron because apparently she was/is unaware that a loose race car can spin out even without actually getting bumped. Tony Stewart also looks stupid because he comes over telling Hamlin "to watch the replay" so he can see where he hit her causing the wreck.

Who gets his ride is a good question.

 

[Nerd-Vol]

I get pulling for a brand. I really loved Honda about 16 years ago, so when I started watching F1 around that time, I pulled for the Mugen powered cars. If Mazda ever goes back to the 24 hours of Le Mans I'm pulling for them like hell.

 

[Burhead]

Regan Smith is in for the 500.

He always been his own worst enemy.

Time for the Delaware DA to get a pair and either charge him publicly or drop the investigation.

Why? They drag this junk out for regular defendants. They often lose income because of it.

It's not any more or less fair for regular joes.

'Til Daytona :rock:

"NASCAR has made it very clear to our entire membership and the broader industry that any actions of abuse will not be tolerated in the industry," O'Donnell added, before departing the Daytona International Speedway media center without taking questions. "We want to make it clear that any inference that there is a culture or tolerance for this type of behavior is patently false."

This is really good talking out of both sides of your mouth. Any guesses as to why he wouldn't take questions after saying something like this? I bet there's one person who knows.

 

[YankeeVol]

Impressive

That is impressive. I love stories like that. The old man is going on his 55th Indy 500 this May. All but two since '58.

Oh look more qualifying wrecks in both the truck and Xfinity series brilliant idea NASCAR.
