2022 Nascar Big 3

[tux]

Might be a controversial subject but do you think Nascar should black flag #16 for his own safety? Hes visibly struggling due to the heat and he isnt a full season entrant

I think he's suffering as much as any of them, look at that last restart direct shots taken at cars without any attempt to turn.

NASCAR is a FKN joke, they built the damn escape road without a stop because their drivers can't drive. No one ALL race was penalized, fkn joke and can guarantee they'll be sued by a team that don't care. You can't make up a rule later. Nevermind that EVERY corner was missed by miles but a professional driver calls you out for your inability to penalize others for intentional wrecks do he stays out of the mess cause there's no way he was gonna make it, and you penalize?? There were additional cars being him so........ Oh, you didn't penalize them, yeah, you're screwed

Yeah, NASCAR can't figure out their own sht, that's why Roger said 'uh no *******s, we have a contract, you're on the road course next year and we ARE NOT talking about the oval in 23'

30 second penalty added post race for Chastain and Dillon for the last lap. Still no one else penalized all race so guess it's last lap rule

I deliberately didn't watch it, that course was always garbage even for cars that do that sort of thing as their bread and butter.

Bigish heavyish cars, eejits, tight twisty bits just isn't my thing. If it's in the schedule next year I won't be watching it again.

I know NOT Big 3 but they ran some hot laps at North Wilkesboro this evening. Nothing else, you gotta check out one of the announcers very thick North Carolina accent!

That's a nice strong accent.

Track looks good, last time I saw it on a documentary with Jr it had greenery reclaiming it left right and centre. Gonna make the effort to watch some of this upcoming racing, just need to work out how to stream it over here in little England!

It will be, Roger holding them to the contract and may allow every other on the oval but he knows there's little interest in the oval either. Road course at least allows a stacked weekend of Indy and Cup

I'm surprised NASCAR hadn't implemented a rule saying the cars needed to come to a complete stop on the turn 1 escape road at Indy before moving on, similar to the rule used at Watkins Glen and The Roval.

Anyway, I don't mind NASCAR running the Indy road course. Obviously it isn't the most inspiring or scenic road course, but it usually provides a bit of chaos which I'm a fan of.

[broadrun96]

I want more on track required, running to the grass a mile away from the track after 5/6 is a bit pathetic but they do the same at The Glen. Make em stay on the track, add a stop box at T1 overshoot and we would have something interesting. The new curbs survived and think helped the Indy race as well.

Kurt Busch not allowed out to play again this coming weekend - guess he's far from in good shape. Ty Gibbs filling in again.

A KFB skit. Very very strong language, so don't click if that will offend:

Not returning at JGR, just waiting for the announcements...

Guess we will be seeing Ty Gibbs and/ or JH Nemechek running Toyota Cup cars next season.

Gragson now announced in the #42.

Needs to mature in my eyes, but then there's plenty that need to mature!

That was glorious

On a different topic, I think Richmond might the most boring track on the schedule right now. The truck race was a proper snoozefest, much like every race at Richmond the past couple of years.

[Alfisti]

Think I have to agree. That was ditch water dull, these new cars seem to make things more interesting at some tracks but suck at others.

Somebody seems to have pressed the on button on Harvick, way better than the rest today, looks like the old man is back on form!
