NBC's coverage isn't perfect, but it's like a breath of fresh air after FOX broadcasts are done for the year.


They’re both equally terrible. People complain about bowyer yelling, but at least he isn’t standing right next to the track trying to shout over the engines as the field rolls by.

Chase is 64 points out of 16th w/9 races left, certainly doable but a win is still the best bet to make the playoffs.

No pre-race at all from NBC. They just came on air and the cars are already running pace laps.



Should do this more often.

Gotta be honest, I hope yhe pre-race the shite out of this weekend's Chicago race. The wife and I got tickets for it, but we're DVRing it so I can come home and see how the coverage loons compared to being there live.

I'm doing the same.

I also saw an ad where NBC 5 and NBC Sports Chicago are going to have some things. I'm not sure if it will be pre-recorded fluff (like a NASCAR For Dummies type of show), but I'm interested to see what the local coverage is like. I've heard some comments that Brandon Johnson is actually being quite supportive of the event.

I don’t care for a long pre-race show but NBC coming on the air as the cars were already running pace laps made it feel like one of those mid-week races during COVID in 2020. I think 15-20 minutes of pre-race would be sufficient.

Wow, Ross Chastain managed to finish a race without wrecking himself and others. That's progress.

And what do you think he learned by actually racing people to the finish line? One: His car was changing as the race evolved and what he couldn't run down early he got the best of in the late stages. Imagine that, Chastain let his pit crew and crew chief make adjustments throughout the race and he just drove the car.

Terrible situation.

Understandably, Jimmie has withdrawn from the race at Chicago this weekend.

NASCAR docks Sheldon Creed 25 pts & fines him $25K for intentionally wrecking Sammy Smith at Nashville. NASCAR: NASCAR reviewed radio communications from the No. 2 team. In NASCAR’s determination, that communication clearly resulted in the No. 2 car wrecking the 18 car on lap 69

Not sure we’ll see much passing this weekend. Just a feeling. Think qualifying and pit stops will be huge.

Willing to bet this race sucks.

Meanwhile Kentucky sits idle.
