Have y’all noticed that Logano now wears glasses during races? I noticed that he started doing that last year. Someone should tell him that contacts would probably better.

Didn’t realize this board hated Logano so much

Aside from the Busch brothers, he’s my favorite driver.

I like Logano, Brad K and Blaney. And Roger P.

But I'm fickle.

I cheered for Kyle the year he broke his leg. Don't like him now. But damn he is good.

But I love Kurt Busch.

Used to hate Logano. Like him now. Same with Blaney.

Cheered for Truex the year he won it all. Then he became a whiner when things don't go right for him.

I like Hamlin sometimes and not other times. Situational.

Same with Harvick.

Ya, I'm fickle.
But that's why I like Nascar so much. I can enjoy it without having my stomach in knots (see LSU football). I'm content unless Kyle or Martin win.

Miami-Dade County Mayor Carlos A. Gimenez issued a statement Thursday morning postponing next weekend’s NASCAR Cup race at Homestead-Miami Speedway with Miami-Dade County under a state of emergency because of the public health threat of COVID-19.


Expect more of the same.

Texas in two weeks isn't looking good for me right now.

I'd expect that as other leagues announce that they are suspending their seasons, NASCAR will follow suit.

Yeah back when I usually would go it would get rained out constantly it seemed.

What a weird year for sports it's going to be. At least we got the Super Bowl and the 500 I guess.

Update from Jayski:

NASCAR expected to make schedule changes at Atlanta; Trucks racing Friday night, Cup race moving to Saturday


LINK

quote:

While the situation is still fluid and final decisions have not been made, NASCAR is expected to dramatically change the weekend schedule at Atlanta Motor Speedway.


As of 10:45am/et, the expectation is that the Truck Series will qualify at 4:00pm/et today and race tonight (Friday evening) at 7:00pm/et. There will be no practices.

The Cup garage will be closed on Friday.

XFINITY will qualify at 12:00pm/et Saturday and race at 7:00pm/et, without practice sessions.

The NASCAR Cup series will now qualify at 11:00am/et on Saturday and race Saturday afternoon at 2:00pm/et, again with no practices.

This schedule is not final and is subject to change at any time.

Welp It's postponed now.

From Jayski

quote:

Statement from NASCAR: “NASCAR has decided to postpone the race events at Atlanta Motor Speedway this weekend and Homestead-Miami Speedway next weekend. We believe this decision is in the best interest of the safety and well-being of our fans, competitors, officials and everyone associated with our sport. We will continue to monitor this dynamic situation as we assess future race events.”

President Trump is also expected to declare a national state of emergency this afternoon.
