Has anyone watched the race rewind on Nascar website?
It seemed like they sped up the action. Was it this fast on the real time broadcast? I was not able to watch the broadcast, as I am too poor to get cable. The cars seemed really fast for a road circuit.

My mistake. My post was directed at the dude having a come apart about Chase.


All good man, I assumed that before your previous reply as a large portion of the 198 page thread is 1-2 Chase Haters going at it with 1-2 Chase Lovers with some sprinkling in of other race fans. Add in Nascar dies with Dale, the All Star Race sucks, the Playoff is stupid, F1 is better, and I hate stage racing and that is this thread in a nutshell.

I couldn't stand Gordon. Anyone with a brain would admit that in non Hendrick equipment his career is different.

But at the same time to infer he wasn't talented is asinine.

You could say the very same thing about Chase

Generally, this is true if all drivers/teams. Chase for example has outperformed his teamates every year overall. Kyle B has out performed his with Gibbs. Harvick has outperformed his. The cream rises to top in multi car teams. Look at 23x, Kurt B runs circles around Bubba - if anyone wants to talk about spoon fed its Bubba. He lucked into SS win as others have first time SS wins too. His driving isn’t selling those sponsorships thats for sure.

The other poster (not you) is having a melt because Chase is doing great and he’s throwing temper tantrems trying to whine about it. Its comical to be honest.

Apparently there was a little chatter this weekend that Kyle Busch had signed with Kaulig. There was a guy who did a video on YouTube claiming this was said at the kyle Busch merch truck.

That’s become the most logical theory over the last few weeks. They’re funding most of their team with money generated by their own business ventures, therefore they don’t have to have a sponsor deal to pay KB.

Also, they’re probably looking to make a big move. If they don’t have Allmendinger in the 16 at a road course, their cars are usually hammered dog shite compared to most of the other Chevrolet’s. Justin Haley ain’t the dude to take them to the promised land.

His truck team is still a huge elephant in the room.

That would be a good add. If Reddick was leaving after this year vice 23 RCR would be a great seat for him to finish out career.

Except for when they brought the new guy in last year who could actually drive. Who has more wins at Hendricks over the last two years???

Maybe Larson winning was a little bit of Karma for that post eh?



That was posted 20 laps in when Chase was running middle of the pack and clinched the regular season title. For fricks sake guy, 50+ year old dude, Boy Scout leader, weird obsession with a 20 something old kid at the top of his game, that trolls message boards.

Your counselor needs time and a half.

And you and the rest of the board are obsessed with my opinion.

Ross Chastain reminds me of early 90s Ernie irvan. He’s been involved in something 7 races in a row.

F'real - I've been quiet this season as it has been bleak for us Keselowski fans, as expected.

Ryan Blaney is pretty boring. Cindric is boring. Byron is boring. Christopher Bell is boring.

I think its more of an issue with TV as they focus so much on a few drivers and not giving any stories of the other drivers to get some connection with them.

It still amazes me how dry-boring Jimmy Johnson is when he was basically the face of NASCAR for 15yrs.

Its funny how during that time Kenseth was considered "the robot" when he probably had one of the best sarcastic sense of humors among the drivers.

How entertaining do these drivers have to be? Just go fast and win usually does it for most.

MJ hated the microphone. He came across as stiff and he wasn't saying anything Charles Barkley-like, that's for sure. He still had a pretty decent following.
