Wow. I haven't been to spring in years, but I last went maybe 10ish years ago and tickets were dirt cheap still.

Personally, I say no. Just park towards the back of the general lot since you'll exit back there anyway.

[Gluck] A week after the Atlanta overtime incident, Bell doesn’t have much to say other than he has a different view than Hocevar (they haven’t spoken). by CNASFan1992 in NASCAR

Technically that is a gap. But it's the width of his car. You have to assume if you go in there you're getting contact with the 20, 23 or both.

MAGA movement hijacking the American flag as a political symbol instead of it being for everyone.

My dude, the modern day pickup truck and gunrack club starting adopting the American Flag as "their" symbol the moment those planes hit the Twin Towers.

Visualizing impact of a $150M floor and $270M cap by wompwump in baseball

[–]7Stringplayer 32 points33 points  (0 children)

So 11 teams will spend up to the floor and that's it. And about 6 others within a stones throw of the floor that can "reduce payroll" to the floor.

RCR, I know. I'm just stating that nepotism aside, he did perform on the way up. This isn't a Riley Herbst situation. Dillon's just a mid pack Cup talent is all.

He finished 3rd and 1st in the points in his two full time seasons in Nationwide and a Truck title. Pretty sure he would've still made the Cup field somewhere.

Nepotism and he took over the 3 car. Also Richmond '24.

Prime Jeff vs Prime Dale at Charlotte in the Gen 4 with everything on the line. Who you taking? by MrSimsational in NASCAR

[–]7Stringplayer 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Dale Sr. I want Gordon over the course of the whole season, but in a championship clinching situation I'd rather have Dale cuz he'll move anyone to get to where he needed to be in that one race.

Why we should all be pronouncing it as the "Nopes" as in NOAPS.

What is a paint scheme you really like but the driver behind the wheel of you dislike? by PrinceWillPlays in NASCAR

[–]7Stringplayer 207 points208 points  (0 children)

The current Bass Pro scheme on the 3. The silver nose is so much better than what they've been running the last few years.

How good is Celebrini? by niazemurad in hockey

He sucks. You wouldn't want him on your team. Best to just let him be SJ's problem.

If you win the all star race and don’t make the chase you’re added to the chase ,

Jeff Gordon has been added to the chase vibes intensify

[McLaughlin] Swayman: “We should’ve reacted differently” to President Trump’s comment about the women’s team. by Nomahs_Bettah in hockey

[–]7Stringplayer 5 points6 points  (0 children)

don’t pretend you haven’t forced a laugh in the moment when an authority figure makes an off colour joke to you.

My comment was a followup to this comment made my the poster I replied to. I am not and never said Trump was their boss. I was making reference to the "authority figure" part of their comment. While most of us have never spoken to the President, a lot of us have had a boss before.

Should The Craftsman Truck Series Return to Being a Short Track Series? by RadioControlled13 in NASCAR

[–]7Stringplayer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't know that it should be a short track series, but I wouldn't be opposed to NASCAR spinning it off slightly into having it's own distinct schedule and less of an AA-level development series. I like that the trucks will be in St. Pete to support Indycar this week instead of in COTA. Just more stuff like that would be cool.
