On 2nd thought, maybe what we had before was better than watching endless caution laps as everyone runs out of gas during the caution laps.

I am pretty far behind on my understanding of the Nascar rules, but why was Allgaier able to restart 4th after running out of gas and having to be pushed to pit road? Just because it was under caution?

Then they did 20 caution laps because everyone thought they still could make it on fuel, but 1 at a time they ran out of fuel. Then they said gently caress it, we are just going green even though someone else is also now out of fuel.

And then the goon that had the printer in the back seat got in front. And he was to fat, nobody else could pass.

Little highlight wheel from the drivers running the booth from the Xfinity race. Way more entertaining than the normal crew! Although they did miss the Ryan Blaney mishap when he thought he was just talking and didn't know the camera was on too... was standing sideways... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2JhvOPYcUig

Not a great race. Whatever changes Nascar made them do for this race was a bad idea. Who wants to see single file racing at Talladega?

SwampYankee posted:It's nothing really new, it's been a game of "ride single file and don't make a move until the last lap" for a while now, even though it never works anymore. The rules package isn't too terrible, both today and at Daytona the racing was fun to watch when the drivers felt like going for it. They might need a bigger spoiler though, seemed like everyone was a little on edge. Thats just it though. All 3 stages, nobody was able to go for it. No lead shuffling, none of what makes Talladega fun.

And even then they basically ran half the race on Sunday and half the race on Monday. But... Nascar viewing audience is going to keep declining. So many issues with the broadcasts from the changing cameras every 10 seconds to having a billion lovely commercials.

Fauxhawk Express posted:I will pitch in if at least 1 race at both Daytona and Dega is run clockwise. Seems like they should consider this at this point. I mean back in the day, it's pretty obvious why they chose to race in a way that gave the driver the most protection between them and the wall, but now that the walls are safer, seems like it's not as big of a deal if you hit the wall... But maybe they should try it with one of the 50 1.5 mile tracks though instead since they are all the loving same anyway. Although the best clearly would be to run Stage 1 counterclockwise, then Stage 2 Clockwise, then Stage 3 counterclockwise again. That way they would have to spend 5 minutes on pit road adjusting the car to go the other way.

Also, every playoff cutoff race should now be a Roval race.

As long as they can still run in packs at high speed and have giant crashes once or twice a race, I'm okay with it. If they take those 2 parts away, then they might as well get rid of Daytona and Daga.
