^ it wouldn’t really have added anything or any better passing areas. I’m not expecting much, especially considering the short versions of Sears Point and Watkins Glen they use already.

shame on an IGA posted:

The charlotte roval has now gone full retard.



As a sporty car watcher primarily, I see no problem here. Tall kerbs and tire stacks to enforce track limits isn’t exactly a new idea. And unlike the bus stop on the back straight at Daytona, there isn’t grass to help enforce the edge of the track.

Yes...Ha ha ha...YES!



hot tip: the shortened versions of sears point and watkins glen that nascar use are in fact the better versions of each

in fact iirc the dogleg at watkins glen was added years after the track was built, with the current nascar version being the original version of the track excepting the bus stop

the first world was a mistake

Sears Point without the carousel is a travesty, but the last sector of the Indycar version of the track is such a pile of poo poo that I'd almost agree the NASCAR version is better.

:wrong:

This is the original layout. When The Glen was rebuilt in 1971, they tore out everything from Turns 5 through 7, and added The Boot.

I did not like Kyle Busch for a long time, but lately I have come to appreciate him for being a good driver and a total rear end in a top hat.

I've mentioned this before, but he's the heel of the sport. And to his credit he's embraced the role instead of whining about it.

I'm watching NASCAR: The Decades and need to make two observations:
-Rutledge Wood is actually kind of entertaining in this. :psyduck:
-What the gently caress is Ric Flair doing on this show? :psyduck:

He's from the South, so it wouldn't surprise me he is a big NASCAR fan.

Also Rutledge is ok. He's nothing bad, but he's very much "fan's perspective"
