The Official NASCAR Talk Thread

Chastain should be working at a putt putt in gatlinburg and driving go-carts at the tangier outlets when he gets off...instead of doing post race interviews EVERY Sunday talking about his **** driving and trying to explain it away.

As a Hamlin fan I’m trying to be as objective as possible here.

Chastain has a lot of raw talent, but he is an absolute mental midget more times than not. As I suspected, the telemetry showed he was full on the accelerator and had no intention of racing the 5 at the end.

Rick doesn't mince words. Hard to disagree with anything he says...

Byron has that golden horseshoe this year.

Someone needs tune up Chastain. I want Austin Hill to do it at an xfinity race.

 

[gordonr24]

Chastain is fortunate that Larson is such a nice guy.

With the speed the 1 car has and the talent Ross has, why haven’t they won more races?

I’m stealing this question from Denny’s podcast, but it is worth asking. They have top 5 speed every week, but that hasn’t translated to wins like one would expect.

Reckless driving will do that. He’s an incredible talent. Just a bully on the track and inconsiderate of spacing except for himself.

I’m really excited to see North Wilkesboro this weekend. I was a youngster when NASCAR left the track, so I don’t remember much. One of NASCAR’s good moves lately and there hasn’t been many.

 

[jbeeman85]

I hope it is a good race. The track has been hyped up so much that if it isn't a good one, I'm concerned a lot of people who don't remember it and/or don't appreciate the history of it will sour on the place.
Not every time is a track going to give you an "exciting" race.

I hope the same thing for the Nashville Fairgrounds if they ever do a NASCAR event there. I go to to the regular programming all the time. The first Late Model race of the year was dull, last week was a 3-way battle for the lead throughout.

Here is a live stream of tonight's races. The first race just ended. 2 more.

Somebody needs to get a quart or two of moonshine on the building for the winner and team. That would be legendary.

They did a good job of writing the article without saying they can’t get a full season Xfinity TV deal.

Watching that pharmaceutical sponsored 3 car race around North Wilksboro on rain tires and flashing lights really takes me back…

 

[gordonr24]

I feel like I’m watching old Bristol. I like this old school one groove race track and wearing out the tires. Shows who the good drivers are. Love the bumps and runs

 

[Fun coupon VOL]

100% agree

 

[Fun coupon VOL]

Someone get some moonshine for Dale jr and Clint, and a strawberry daiquiri for Jamie.

 

[jbeeman85]

I got a feeling social media going to be full of people asking why people wanted North Wilkesboro back so much after that butt kicking.

I didn’t think it was a bad show, it was nostalgic even for people that aren’t really old enough to remember it back in the day. Had a local short track feel to it and I enjoyed it. It’s a driver’s track and it separates the men from the boys
