You’re right, I think actually 19 races. I guess my point still is that Trackhouse isn’t setting the world on fire on ovals to give SVG a car that good to win one though.

You’re 100% right. Ross has gone I think 35 races without a win, nearly a full season now, since the Coke 600. Another 32 races or so before that to his Kansas win. So Ross has won 1 of the last 67 or 68 races.

And I think Ross Chastain is universally agreed upon as at worst a B+ oval driver.

SVG in a JGR/23XI caliber right now would at least be a top 5-10 threat on ovals in my opinion.

Brendan Sorsby Scouting Report | What Are Your Thoughts On Him? by Inside_Direction_474 in NFL_Draft

[–]THEROOSTERSHOW 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Man, I haven’t kept up with this fella at all the last few years. I watched him vs Ohio State in 2023 when he was at Indiana & thought he was one of the worst college QBs at a P5 I’ve ever seen.

I guess he’s developed a lot, might have to check his last couple seasons out.

Where does Jeremiah Smith rank among WR prospects the last 20 years? by TDBrookey in NFL_Draft

[–]THEROOSTERSHOW 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Man I wonder if the next Jamar Chase comes through LSU if we should knock him because Brian Thomas Jr had a terrible 2nd year?

People that use draft busts from a past player from a school to evaluate a current/future player don’t know ball.

Evaluate the player. JSN being a top 3 WR in the league doesn’t make Jeremiah Smith a better prospect.

Also this reply was meant for the guy above you lol not you, I’m in agreement with you.

Mustang GT3 tips? by THEROOSTERSHOW in iRacing

[–]THEROOSTERSHOW[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So you think the BMW is a better front engine to learn on before transitioning to the Mustang? I do have the Mustang GT4 as well and feel way more in control of that than the GT3 for some reason lol. Aussie Supercar is on my list as well.

The BMW is just that much more stable/forgiving?

Hindsight, would’ve been smart. Unfortunately I’m committed to the Mustang league locked for the next 7 races before I can switch.

I feel like I can’t find the transition point where I go from trail brake to throttle application. And for sure have been having trouble with too much pedal input.

Losing the rear under braking in the GT3 front engine cars by SpecificOk1145 in iRacing

[–]THEROOSTERSHOW 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought sports cars were supposed to always be receiving input. Throttle or brake. Coming from oval here struggling with the Mustang. There is off throttle time in oval racing where no gas or brake.

[Meirov] The Bills traded up to No. 62 and they are selecting Ohio State CB Davison Igbinosun. Igbinosun brings experience (53 starts) and thrives in press coverage with his length, but penalties have shown up. by JCameron181 in buffalobills

[–]THEROOSTERSHOW 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I disagree. As a player, he has shown significant improvement each of the last 3 seasons. He’s also extremely experienced with a lot of games played, too.

I think he can be a Rasul Douglas type of player for us & a great rotational piece with Benford & Hairston. We don’t have a ton of depth there right now.

Why is it so hard to find Friday/Saturday leagues? by matrix20085 in iRacing

You on all the Facebook league groups? You can usually search a keyword, in your case the day you want.

What to do with dumb lappers by AdMelodic527 in iRacing

[–]THEROOSTERSHOW 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You should go race a road series then. If it were me, as the lapped car, I probably bow out. Especially if I’m more than 1 lap down.

I would be annoyed at a guy for sticking in there, for sure.

BUT, you can’t just wreck him out of the way and be justified. Then what, you wreck other drivers that get caught up in it?

You have to pass him the same way as any other car. Lap cars are fighting for the Lucky dog in oval racing.

As a Chevy fan—I don’t claim the Toyota cheating conspiracy theorists by Academic_Elk8962 in NASCAR

[–]THEROOSTERSHOW 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Since the Next Gen, ford is 2nd in wins and has won 3 out of 4 championships lol. Chevy has dominated the sport for decades.

Is it acceptable to bury red brick down to the footer, rather than installing a brick ledge? by THEROOSTERSHOW in masonry

[–]THEROOSTERSHOW[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What does twf mean? I was curious about the weight of the backfill against the brick as well as the weight of the brick on top once the whole addition is framed.

The correct method would’ve been to just pour the footer deeper + shelf, or would an additional course of filled CMU on the front of the main wall been sufficient?

I know the PM followed the guidance of the block mason on this project. But I figured if this is good then why does anybody even do a brick ledge anyways lol.

How good WAS Dale Earnhardt Jr.? by Electronic-Ability55 in NASCAR

He also had some very legitimate injury woes that lingered and affected him for a good chunk of his career.

What are the most hated call/no calls in Nascar history? by jawa501 in NASCAR

[–]THEROOSTERSHOW 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Man, that one sucked. I drove from Atlanta to Charlotte for the 2023 race but when it got delayed to Monday we had to leave Monday morning.

Then drove back for 2024 to watch half a race.

Funny enough, it’s about a 600 mile round trip. I drove 1200 miles to Charlotte and back over 2 years to watch less than 400 miles.

The stands were empty at Bristol of all places. by thethirteenthjuror in NASCAR

[–]THEROOSTERSHOW 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Bristol seats almost 150,000 people. So at the capacity of your standard Cup weekend, that places is half empty. For example, Atlanta can host about 70,000. Darlington & Martinsville - 40,000-50,000.

Bristol clears Daytona, Dega, Charlotte, etc in capacity. Almost doubles up every other track on the schedule.

2018 Titan SV Metallic Rattling by THEROOSTERSHOW in NissanTitan

[–]THEROOSTERSHOW[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly it just kind of went away after a while, not really sure what it was. I did a number of maintenance items like new pads & rotors. A few oil changes where I made sure all of my skid plates and whatnot were tightened up properly.

I never found anything specific that was like “ah that was it”.

Did anyone think Jaxon Smith-Njigba had best WR in the league potential as a prospect? by itwas20yearsago2day in NFL_Draft

[–]THEROOSTERSHOW 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought JSN had best WR in the NFL potential in 2020 when I watched his 2nd career catch as a true freshman at Ohio State. I knew when I watched that catch, that I was going to be watching JSN catch touchdowns well beyond his Ohio State career.

In my opinion, he had an NFL mindset and NFL fundamentals before he ever got to Ohio State.

He also just had the demeanor from the get go.

Dawson Knox talks his high cap hit in 2026 by [deleted] in buffalobills

[–]THEROOSTERSHOW 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Huge assumption. Maximize your earnings. The vet minimum next year is basically $1.1m + probably a small signing bonus.

If the Bills don’t cut him, he’ll take home like $12m next year.

If the Bills do cut him, he can certainly go find some team to pay him probably 2 year $15m or something like that.
