The 36 Cup races will be broken up into three stages with parts one and two equal in length with a five-minute break in between with the final stage measuring half the total race distance.

******* Networks !!!!

Ummmm what?

 

[NSWCROW]

Ummmm what?

Exactly.
Good luck explining it to casuals , was already convoluted.

Those guys lost the plot years ago. These further changes do my head in.

On another note. I was watching the ESPN coverage of the NFL. I saw these lame arse commercials "Happy Daytona Day"

Dear God! It brought up the acids inside

Will be interesting, as i read it there are no stoppages at each 'stage', just points awarded at those stages. In theory, it could be good for racing.

 

[Ljp86]

Ridiculous rule change. Why can't we just have good, fast paced racing without rule changes for each race?

NASCAR quickly becoming like the AFL with the need to dick around with the rules every year.

 

[BomberFan355]

So i just read that there will be a flag waved at each 'stage', meaning a virtual caution. Not so sure now.

 

[hey shorty]

Americans watch baseball, surely they can sit and watch a continuous car race without the need to artificially stuff around with it.

 

[NSWCROW]

Shit gets real tomorrow at Daytona with the 2 clash races
Live on Fox at midday aedt i think

 

[Bomberboyokay]

[NSWCROW]

Did anyone else use the Jayski site? I used it for the exact start time of races as it had a count down, now been taken over by ESPN and is rubbish ATM.

It had been part owned I think by ESPN for quite a while but now it seems they've taken full control, sadly. I only really used it for paint schemes, cause they had a great history of them on their, but now I can't be bothered with them.

It was really basic and well laid out, now it's just rubbish. A bit like NASCAR.com years ago.

Geez they all went full-****** after halfway

Joey Logano and Kyle Busch in punch up after Las Vegas race this morning.

 

[hey shorty]

[newblueo]

joey is a rich brat but he did nothing wrong,it's called racing kyle

side not how is Patrick backed by sponsers so well she is deadest the slowest driver around,

 

[NSWCROW]

RIcky Stenhouse finally jags a win.
At 'Dega no less !!!

 

[NSWCROW]

Bad crash in Kansas.


Logano had something in his brakes shatter which turned him hard left into Danica's right rear which sent her up into the wall , Aric Almirola then crashed into both where the rear end of his car lifted.
Cut out of the car and airlifted to hospital.
Was awake and alert , i'm assuming it's a back issue.

 

[NSWCROW]

Kyle wins the All-Star race

 

[NSWCROW]

Always nice to see a 1st time winner

Ryan Blaney joins Austin Dillon and Ricky Stenhouse in losing their " v-Plates " this season
