BMB5150 posted:I remember in 2006 NBC had a huge spike in commercials. I'm not surprised Turner is doing the same getting every last penny as they know there won't be an repercussions since they're gone next year. Like it really matters at Pocono or Michigan. We'll be pissed at Sonoma and Daytona. Isn't Daytona "Commercial Free", or did they abandon that?

The NASCAR Advanced Series to go with the Sprint Cup to confuse the hell out of people. edit: have Champion sponsor the truck series so we get the Sprint/Advanced/Champion series.

CBJSprague24 posted:Kidc posted wondering what the 4th JGR car number would be a while back. As much sense as 19, 80, and 81 might make, 54 is available... I never got why they didn't do 19 anyway. I know Evernham had it for a long time but it's still weird.

L_Harrison posted:lol 42 cars in the Cup race. That's the lowest field since 1997, and those races with less than 43 had DNQs (if we ignore the postponed 2001 Loudon race) Wow NASCAR couldn't convince a 43rd to show up. Tear down Kentucky go back to North Wilkesboro.

"One type of fan that France said is essential to develop is millennials (those born from approximately 1980-2000). He called this effort the number-one focus of NASCAR’s strategy" What the gently caress. Guys were gonna target them there kids by using a twitter account and not by, you know, making our product interesting at all.

LASTCAR posted:If I were nine years old today instead of in 1991, I wonder if I'd get hooked on today's product. I honestly don't know. I think with how good the LASTCAR runnings have been compared to the early 90s you'd be a major fan.

The thing about the Mile is that they either run the Mile or Road America. Choose wisely.

dennyk posted:Has Goodyear even made any new NASCAR rain tires in the last decade? I thought the Nationwide guys were still using up the leftover old surplus rain tires they churned out years ago when they were first considering using them at the road courses in Cup. I agree, NASCAR needs to run Pacific and Portland at least once each a year.

BMB5150 posted:Make it a season finale or one of the first races. A slam dunk to have rain. I'd take Portland over Homestead anytime. Forty-degrees and pouring down rain for the finale? FuzzySkinner posted:Yes and they suck. (except when SRA is racing). Easy there killer. Trucks and Nationwide are not better than ARCA. ARCA is more fun to watch because everyone in it is terrible.

VikingSkull posted:"Live from a track you don't know, 40 guys you've never heard of battle it out! Here, only on Fox Sports 7 1/2!" You just described the Cup series, friend. The tracks are all so similar now that I have trouble telling which one they're at this week (and I'm sure most other fans are the same way), and in 10 years so many drivers have came in and gone out of Cup that there are only 14 drivers who were around in 2004 and are still going. And only 4 of them (Johnson, Gordon, Biffle and Edwards) are still with the same team. So yeah let's go watch the Sprint Cup Series! Where the points system changes every year, the only constant in the schedule is the northern swing in June, and 39 entries are completely different every year! But don't you even dream of changing Nationwide or Trucks. Peanut President fucked around with this message at 17:20 on Jul 13, 2014 |

What's better: 5000 people showing up to watch a busch race at Kansas or 5000 people showing up to watch a busch race at Memphis? Choose wisely.

Indiana sprint week owns, there's a dirt track sprint car race every night somewhere in the state. Which one?

L_Harrison posted:The gently caress? They're actually holding quite a bit of speed for being an oval in the rain. They could easily race in the rain in the Cup series on tracks a mile or less in length, but no the world's top drivers are regulated by the biggest pussy of a sanctioning body. Cannot Find Server posted:Europe: better at oval racing than the United States Y'all realize that's a parking lot they're racing in right?
