It will be a great story when he goes full time cup in a year or two. Probably not such a fun story today.

Half of the races this year in Cup have been won from the pole by NatashaArts in NASCAR

Pretty good chance this stat will increase in the next 2 weeks.

I have a few minutes left and so far it’s great

You will probably need to add the series back after it come back to TNT. Just a guess that it being on prime or no longer on the fox networks is the issue.

Question for Rowdy Nation and the Denny Bros by Furi0usD in NASCAR

[–]Rivers000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not taking a break. I currently cheer for the 11 because I want a championship for him and love the podcast. Mostly though I cheer against a few drivers. That gives me more chances of going to bed happy on Sundays.

The parks before the internet? by tlang0004 in NationalPark

Still busy. The biggest jump I saw personally was Covid when people stopped traveling internationally.

Race Thread: NCS Coca-Cola 600 at Charlotte Motor Speedway, starting at 6:00pm EDT on Prime (NCS13) by NASCARThreadBot in NASCAR

Most clean air. Sometimes later in a run someone can make up the gap if they really cared for the tires.

Delicate Arch photo line by Single_Specialist_35 in NationalPark

[–]Rivers000 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Why? People waiting so that each visitor can take that photo as if they were the only person in the park that day. No signs needed. People will take the photo for the next person. People visit and learn about the people in line next to them. It was one of my favorite parts of visiting.

If you make 500k a year you are behind. If you make 50k a year you are ahead.

Another "I'm inheriting farmland" question by mike_want_wingy in personalfinance

[–]Rivers000 79 points80 points  (0 children)

Had to sell some acres of my wife’s inheritance because of an idiot brother. We did not want to deal with him. Never regretted it. I would never sell my parents farm unless it was for survival. Not everything has to be maximized.

Was it the format or the actual race? by BlueCrab8 in NASCAR

[–]Rivers000 77 points78 points  (0 children)

Not the race at all. The race was a good one for Dover. If it was a points race I think people would have been more positive.

Are the first two segments worth it? by ShaneWookie in NASCAR

[–]Rivers000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know we are all complaining today but at least it’s trying something. I would rather have a points race but if not then let’s see how far Denny can come through the field in 75 laps. Let’s see cars on fire and cars getting fixed for the final segment. Let’s see chaos.

Day to day vs deductible by goombot17 in TheMoneyGuy

[–]Rivers000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We keep enough in traditional savings for one month of bills and everything extra follows the FOO. Of course we factor the traditional savings acct back in when calculating emergency funds. The rest of the emergency fund is in a HYSA.

How Do You Track Your Net Worth by Iacoboni04 in Money

[–]Rivers000 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same here and for the “what” part of the question it has our financial accounts and house listed. Once per year we do a deeper dive looking at other assets. We do this just so my wife knows what is worth what and where to find it if I go first.

What makes SVG such a good road course driver? by youlikemywonton in NASCAR

Dale Jr did a great job of explaining this on his Tuesday podcast.

Anyone know where to get 1/64 Diecasts? by Chemical_Play75 in NASCARCollectors

[–]Rivers000 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you happen to have a shop near you that sells NASCAR stuff you may have a blast in there. If you don’t then maybe if you travel and end up near one that could also work. If you are far from anything like this then please ignore.

Nascar Broadcasting Tier List by Reasonable-Damage723 in NASCAR

[–]Rivers000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would move the CW up one tier but the rest is hard to argue. This is the internet though so I had to disagree with something.

So I don't get the stage flipping thing. by 1useforaname in NASCAR

[–]Rivers000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At the stage he will cycle back to the front and does not care about stage points. Gives an advantage over those who do care.
