Nascar 2019

[ark steel]

I started watching with 20 laps thinking it was almost over! Finally paused to to watch something else and just now finished. I thought one of those mustangs woulda snuck in 2nd.

Horrible. The cars look like tear away jerseys and the aeordynamics suck. 4 wide at Darlington aughta be a treat. Ever seen so many sparks flying? They've killed nascar.

it really doesn't excite me much anymore. I think I watched the most two races last year. Now that a lot of the bigger stars have retired, I know about 1/3 of the field. I like the JGR and SHR teams, but not enough to keep my interest on Sundays.

Missed the race except for listening to the radio through my phone since my flight was timed perfectly to start and end the same times as the race. As a Ford Man I'm happy about them racing Mustangs instead of Fusion sedans. My dad is almost 83 and drives a Fusion. They need to allow more downforce or stickier tires or something so there isn't 11 damn wrecks in the last 20 laps of every race.

Josh Pray goes to Daytona. Same guy who does the Mike Tomlin press conferences.

Atlanta will be a faster, better race next week
Of course might take as long cause there’s rain in the forecast

I have to say the racing has improved this year with the new engine package. Sure people lead lots of laps, but there is passing and real racing. Might start paying more attention.

Jeezus. Bristol used to be the hardest ticket to get in sports (Steelers home game was ranked #2). Today the seating in turns 1 & 2 and 3 & 4 are closed off totally and the front and back stretch are maybe 75% full at best. We went in '08 only because the brother of a friend had season tickets and couldn't go. And a Busch Brother won again, which may be another reason why people don't go to races like they used to.

You went to the day race?
I’m sure night race still is a hard ticket.

In '08 we went to both. '09 went to the day race.

Nascar ***** up another restart, which definitely affected the outcome. Ruined what was a good race.

I'm finally going to get to drive on the Daytona International Speedway in November on the Rolex 24 hour 3.56 mile course. I've wanted to go on that track for so long.

I have been on the CLT track in a car at the Richard Petty driving experience.......I could not wait to get out.

I do not know how those guys do it.

There is a reason they are all 5' 2"

Massive props to Buddy Baker.........

Balls to do it.You get used to speed and confidence over time. It still can kill you quick. This is running my own car on a full circuit around 3-4 hours each day. That Petty experience is cool,but they only give you a few laps in a governed 150 mph stock car. I'll certainly hit higher than that by 20-30 mph weather permitting. I'll be running my pdr the whole time and probably a go pro on the bumper.

I did the Rusty Wallace Experience a few years ago at a Pittsburgh area asphalt track. Once they lock the HANS Device on, you can't see jack except for moving your eyes left and right. I don't know how the pros do it.

Kevin Harvick is struggling this year. I hate the new package...
