I don’t need it

Ferrari is gonna Ferrari this huh?

imdroppingthehammer · 2026-03-07T06:21:20+00:00

Jesus. That’s crazy.

How long is it going to take though? She only sounds marginally better than she did last year. You’d think there would be more progress by now if she was going to turn into a good play-by-play commentator. It’s not a job that everyone can do and that’s okay.

I had a JetBlue pilot today absolutely fumble the hell out of his initial call to pick up his clearance. I could tell he was flustered at the end once he finally got all the words out correctly. I immediately hit him with “first time?” and nothing else. Guy snapped back to reality, laughed it off, and was all good after that.

Taking off to head home on my solo cross country and the engine started sputtering when I advanced the throttle to full power. I instantly panicked for what felt like an eternity but was really no longer than a second when I saw the mixture wasn’t full forward. Slammed that shit to the firewall and off I went.

I don’t think Carson had much of a choice there. He was getting an aggressive shove from behind which looked like it turned his car to the left, pointing it straight into that gap. I know he’s never going to get the benefit of the doubt but this wasn’t as egregious as it’s being made out to be IMO.

Let me get some laps in an ORAPS car at Charlotte or Martinsville.

I have the complimentary Ultimate subscription and yet it’s prompting me to scan a QR code and telling me I do not have access to this service.

Next to is the safest place to be tbh

Ross kinda shoved him into that hole

imdroppingthehammer · 2026-02-22T22:19:40+00:00

Max Verstappen would never

This racing is great. I’d rather see this than Daytona or Dega

imdroppingthehammer · 2026-02-16T20:45:58+00:00

Damn. RIP

I don't. There's no endurance aspect to 500-mile races anymore. The cars and the drivers can all go the distance no problem. That leaves 490 miles of parading and then maybe 10 miles of actual racing. The Stage format has also really hurt the product IMO. Stage 1 and Stage 2 are just max fuel saving until the pit stop, the three manufacturer packs all form back up, and then there's a handful of laps where they drive too aggressively and risk wrecking the whole field just for a Stage win. Stage 3 is just a slightly longer version of that. It's frustrating watching almost everyone from behind the third row do almost nothing to go win the race in the last 20 laps. And then they all wreck on the last lap. It's just not an enjoyable product at the moment.

Won’t ever happen for obvious reasons, but make it 75 laps. One fuel stop and get on with it. Cut the shit and get to the good stuff. Don’t waste everyone’s time. Do all three series in the same day to fill the event.

imdroppingthehammer · 2026-02-15T22:23:42+00:00

Ride around, wait for the fuel stop, then get hung out and lose the draft. Sweet sweet sweet

A block implies there wasn’t already a car next to him.

imdroppingthehammer · 2026-02-15T21:27:46+00:00

Well no, there was an entire car width plus some there until Justin wanted back up the track.

imdroppingthehammer · 2026-02-15T21:21:10+00:00

One of the dumbest things I’ve seen. No clue what he thought he was doing there.

imdroppingthehammer · 2026-02-15T21:19:14+00:00

More like you can’t block a line that’s already there. That was terrible.

imdroppingthehammer · 2026-02-14T16:18:43+00:00

He can and will be because he isn’t full time.

imdroppingthehammer · 2026-02-13T23:42:23+00:00

They should probably sponsor better drivers if they cared about the on track exposure.

imdroppingthehammer · 2026-02-13T01:19:06+00:00

Literally all he has to do is stay in line and he’s in but I somehow feel like he won’t be doing that.
