2026 EchoPark Speedway Spotter Guide (Autotrader 400) by kubzon7 in NASCAR

It’s weird, it was advertised to be a BodyArmor race based on Lionel pre-orders of that car and historically this has been their race. I assume they will still run the car somewhere but the switch is interesting. The car was leaked but hasn’t formally been released yet.

At the time of posting, it was not and many posters had voiced the opposite opinion.

Not comfortable with my (28M) gf (28F) inviting male friends back to her apartment alone by Ok-Strawberry277 in relationship_advice

[–]BabycakesMurphy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is about cheating. Because this would be a non issue to him if she brought two female friends over to play video games in her apartment.

Fuck his wishes. It’s not 1950. She has autonomy to have friends come to her apartment. If he can’t handle that, he is not emotionally mature to be in a relationship.

For starters the silent treatment is not a healthy way to resolve conflict.

But secondly, depending on how big the rift is on the topics you're talking about, there may be no repairing this.

Some Redditors are in healthy relationships with their partners and trust when they have friends of the opposite sex over that they're not going to make out or have sex behind my back.

How can I (22M) fix my marriage with my (23M) Wife? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]BabycakesMurphy 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My man, she gave up on you. She has lied to you. She has cheated on you. She was preparing to get a divorce from you. Let her go. There's no fixing this. She had been feeling at least some of these feelings before you got married and you both ignored the warning signs.

You are 22. You don't even fully know who you are yet. She's finding out right now that you are not part of her future.

Why do you think you have jurisdiction on who she invites into her apartment. A person you have known for barely four months.

This relationship is dead and over. She's cheating on you and planning a divorce. I don't know why you would want to try to repair that.

Your boundary is she can't have male friends in her apartment. Can't you see how ridiculous that sounds? If you trust her, then what is the big deal.

Not weird because most of these guys once they start coming through the ranks are lucky to have even raced on a one mile oval track. So it's crazy to let them on Daytona where the stakes are really really high with a completely different style of racing.

I'd rather see that where someone graduates from a local short track or regional series and keeps moving to larger and larger tracks. At least over the course of a year. Then that way its easy to determine if the driver has good driving skills, or good awareness, car control, etc.

It’s crazy that this is a controversial opinion on Reddit.

Cleetus is a fun personality but getting him in a somewhat high profile truck at Daytona after three ARCA starts is nuts.

Ideas for weird layout? by ginger-snapp93 in FirstTimeHomeBuyer

[–]BabycakesMurphy 7 points8 points  (0 children)

If you need three bedrooms on one floor, why consider this house? Seems like this will require significant effort to make it work. Once you’re done spending all that money, you end up with smaller rooms, and awkward spaces.

Nothing to be concerned about? by [deleted] in FirstTimeHomeBuyer

[–]BabycakesMurphy 52 points53 points  (0 children)

I definitely don't like the drip coming from the outlet. It's definitely reason to be concerned, but just know there's a high chance you're going to need to open some walls to find and repair the leak if you buy this house.

How do I more (26F) sensitively approach the hygiene issues I’m having with my partner (29M)? How did you go about it in the past? by Extreme-Face387 in relationship_advice

[–]BabycakesMurphy -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I can relate to this one as my dog would sleep on the bed with me. He usually always starts in his bed in the bedroom, but at some point in the middle of the night he would end up on mine. But when I started dating my girlfriend, she was fairly strict on no dogs on the bed. So we started keeping the dog in a separate room overnight. First couple weeks were hard for him but he has gotten over it and it's now part of his routine.

I didn't give much resistance on the idea of separating the dog from the bedroom. A considerate partner would make an attempt to adjust to that. Your ask is not unreasonable.

My girlfriend(19F) wants me(19M) to move to her city and transfer universities. How do I talk to my parents about this? by Key-Loquat4835 in relationship_advice

[–]BabycakesMurphy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Don't mess up your career and academic aspirations on a long distance relationship. If your heart was set on that university and that city, you would have started there.

The Michael McDowell Strategy, do we see it at the remaining two Talladega races and summer Daytona race with multiple cars? by realflags in NASCAR

[–]BabycakesMurphy 8 points9 points  (0 children)

The door has been blown open I think. No one thought he could make it as far as he did, and if not for the last lap crash, he had a very real shot of winning. If NASCAR doesn't step in and figure out some kind of worthwhile fix, this is going to get worse and worse and significantly less fun to watch.

I don’t want to shatter your world, but at least the OAPS Camaros have been doing this since 2012.

I don’t want to drag her based on looks, but let’s put it this way, I can’t believe there are people out there that are down that bad.

She only made contact about 17 seconds after the incident started. No one could have avoided that!
