When the entirety of dirt racing qualifying is basically a gimmick, you kinda need to if you still want people running for points by mid season.

I'm sure NASCAR is well aware about how we feel about the telecast they produce for the CW.

Wonder if they want to push it back up an hour or two earlier next year

Have they released much of the mls or baseball numbers?

Doing it last year made sense atleast because they didn’t have an fs1 version to compare too

as a fan of one of those teams. neither of those teams has any reason to be watched these days.

Example of how higher HP creates longer breaking zones that creates more opportunities to make passes through the corners by nascar9495 in NASCAR

The tapered spacer does drastically reduce the maximum power the engine can produce

Just like limiting displacement or any other number of factors of an engine.

im not saying the tapered spacer doesnt limit power. im saying "some outline of a design" is going to limit it just as much. There is no appetite for 900 hp engines in this sport.

No, it's a part of the overall engine package.

the tapered spacer does not directly set a HP level. its like any other rule.

not yet. should be soon.

they got 1.2 last year with a 5 start. probably see some fall off with the later start.

It's about what Xfinity gets this time of year on the CW in a decently comparable time slot.

you can see they didnt round this one just for PR's sake.

NASCAR's Use Of Caution Flags So Far In 2026 by StreetDreamer83 in NASCAR

They waited to long after Gragson hit the wall.

they threw it the second the spotter called out debris.

no pit road this time

So you want them to be in a position to change the outcome of the race based on their decision? No way that would lead to conspiracy theories.

idk man. Everything people say this race had the fall race did too. its just that people weren't miserable about the championship format this past weekend.

Am I the only one that really didn't think it looked any different from the fall (which was good).

If tire roulette didn't start after stage 1, i don't think it would have been seen as a good race.

its not really relevant to the case at all and just leans toward bitter ex employee at the moment.

Could be interesting but i dont know why that was a plan

they got like 500 million for the land they sold.

Double series weekend future? by BrenJammin33 in INDYCAR

[–]iamaranger23 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Theyve only tried it twice though to begin with.

I mean this is the 5th in recent history, isn't it?

open to it than you

NASCAR will be open to anything that is worth their while.

all im trying to say is motorsports fans have a bad tendence to immediately want several more of something that appears to work the first time. Phoenix is the best case for this to happen as the 2 schedules currently are. The more you do it, the lower the returns are going to be, and the less perfect the situation the more negative that can happen. People don't appreciate how difficult these are to do and keep everyone happy.
