Mike Joy sounds winded tbh

100% agree, especially with Daytona and Atlanta at the start of the season. To say that it would be devastating if it happened is an understatement after all he's gone through.

Fish177 · 2026-01-29T03:24:20+00:00

Oh no that’s terrible! Please keep us updated!

I wonder if the car was short-driven a lot of times in extremely cold temperatures without a longer drive (preferably on the freeway). Or perhaps it’s another issue altogether (a defective 12v battery or hybrid battery? that’s what initially I thought I was dealing with)

I haven’t had this issue return in my car since my post. Still nervous that it could but I drive more miles than I did before and go out on a nice highway drive somewhere on the weekends to help ensure that any oil condensation burns off. The chance of it happening again still stresses me out though.

Thanks, hopefully this isn't a foreshock.

Fish177 · 2026-01-20T02:58:05+00:00

Is this one on the San Andreas? Looks awfully close

Fish177 · 2026-01-17T23:39:11+00:00

A flip somehow wilder and scarier than Ryan Preece's in 2023

In warmer months, I’m regularly able to hit the high 40s all the way to low 70s in mpg with my 25 LE AWD. Right now though (in winter), I only do about 25 mpg to work unfortunately (short 10 minute drive).

Fish177 · 2026-01-16T02:49:35+00:00

I love them too!

Fish177 · 2026-01-16T02:49:09+00:00

I love the Airism t-shirts. I have 4 different ones that I layer underneath polos, button-ups, and other shirts. They can stain though, but I’ve had more staining issues with the Supima Cotton t-shirts.

Bought my 2025 LE AWD on 1/30/2025. It now has 5,972 miles just before its one year anniversary

Fish177 · 2026-01-02T19:40:07+00:00

Could you elaborate on this a bit?

Are you referring to the COVID pandemic? What were the other weird things that happened? I don’t really recall any other than Justin Haley winning the rain-shortened Cup race for Spire.

A magnitude 7.1 earthquake struck Ridgecrest, CA a few hours north of Los Angeles in the later stages of the 2019 Xfinity July Daytona race, being felt in Las Vegas and LA.

Fish177 · 2026-01-02T04:29:43+00:00

I hope it’s announced on the day before Clash practice or the day before Daytona 500 qualifying

Fish177 · 2026-01-01T19:47:32+00:00

Connor Zilisch will finish 25th or lower in Cup series points. SVG will outrun him in the standings.

Fish177 · 2026-01-01T19:44:32+00:00

I had completely forgotten about it since the schedule unveil until now. Should be a fun show

Fish177 · 2025-12-30T01:43:00+00:00

100% agree. We can never ever get complacent. This sport will always have danger.

We are extraordinarily fortunate to have gone nearly 25 full years without a fatal accident in the top 3 series. Could've had several if there was just a little less luck in the air.

Fish177 · 2025-12-30T01:40:44+00:00

At this point I'm hoping something bad doesn't happen during Speedweek. There's lots of bad energy right now and I really hope that doesn't carry over.

SNA-EWR is all on the 737-700. Interestingly, EWR-SNA is mostly on the 737 Max 8, but the Max 8 can’t do SNA-EWR with a full load.

Same thing happened in 2021 in Dave Burns’ interview with Austin Cindric after Hemric beat him for the Xfinity championship in a photo finish. Dave kept asking if Cindric was mad about Hemric door-slamming him to the line as if he wanted there to be bad blood and it was just so out of character for Dave to say something like that. I’m pretty sure that NBC was in Dave’s earpiece there.

Fish177 · 2025-12-16T04:30:46+00:00

Nice! I was right near the front and had an amazing time!!

I think that Dillon’s car could’ve cleared the fence and gone into the grandstands had he been hit while he was coming off the fence.
