hype

The fuck is wrong with these dumb ass broadcasters making some ditzy bitch the lead commentator for racing?

Nobody wants to hear some dumb bitch running her mouth about racing when we all know they know nothing about it, nor do they give a damn about it.

>It's another KWL episode

I honestly do not know how the points system works. Just wondering if someone can do the math for me.

Say, hypothetically, a driver wins the first two stages, then crashes out and finishes 40th. Not likely, but possible. How many points would he get at the end of the day? What place finish would it be equivalent to?

I think it's hilarious how Harvick is finishing poorly yet leading in points.

>>74626410
That driver would have 20 points, a midpack finish

>NASCAR will NEVER have a race set a record pace again

>>74626442
I suppose I could have done the math myself. Thanks senpai

I hope something entertaining actually comes from this. I want some 30th place drivers to play the pit strategy and take stage wins. It will help some outsiders make the chase.

>>74626455
more time for commercials desu

>krnk it up!

>brendan gaughn to the garage

>>74626509
Well, of course.

Reddit championed the new format as the end of green flag commercials but you could see right from the get-go that it was only going to be more commercials in the long run.

>>74626576
Its getting pretty bad. Ive looked forward to watching these races for years, but this year and last year have been exceptionally bad. They are trying hard to ruin my favorite pastime. The racing is fine and honestly the segments are fine (though gay), but its hard to sit through so many commercials. Does anyone see NASCAR surviving 15 more years?

At least Indycar is on tomorrow.

>>74626627
>but its hard to sit through so many commercials.

Then don't.

There's usually a decent camera view here, though you have to take off your ad-block to get it to load, then just turn it back on:
http://www.nascar.com/en_us/nascar-drive.html

Premier sports usually streams the cup races, and they usually cut out the commercials, so when the host stations break, you just see the cars on the track.

Commercial free is the ONLY way to watch this shit.

I like stage racing, but it's pretty dumb in this series since it's dominated by Cup drivers who aren't getting points.

How come manufacturers run different model stickers in Xfinity?

>>74626774
But what about muh owner's championship

Cup driver wins lol.

Wow this is worse than las week

These cars look cool.

It's something the manufacturers wanted to do. It allows them advertise a different make.

Haha, fuck this series, seriously

At the track. Almost fell asleep during that stint.

>>74626576
>Commercial free until the end of the race sponsored by Monster Energy
>Followed by a three minute commercial break

I hope they make a habit out of what they did at Daytona. for the lulz

>he learned to race on a computer game

No, he's the son of somebody important at Liberty University, convinced his parents to spend their squillions on Legends racing because he was okay on a computer game, then paid his dues and climbed the ladder like every other millenial driver.

>>74627298
>late models for JR
>K&N for HScott
>trucks for KBM
literally the best equipment from day one

>>74627320

Yea things are definitely easy when you have a big $ sponsor who will follow you wherever you go.

>>74627320
So, he's just a carbaby?

>>74627320
Still drills home my point. Video games have very little to do with it if you're running multiple seasons as a development driver for JRM and progressing up the ladder in a traditional sense.

>Scuba Steve!

>>74627350
Just about the biggest carbaby in NASCAR.

But there are so many.

Was that the yellow 90 car with the ARCA brakes again? wtf

I can't believe failey still has a ride

>>74627533
Surprised he hasn't gone back to USAC.

>>74627470
Poutine Pete

>>74627576

I think he still races sprints but driving NASCAR is a nice, secure living. Especially since he has a family.

And another one

>another restart

>>74627883

It'll get better as the season goes on. There are sanctions against them competing in Dash 4 Cash and playoff races.

Imagine how good it would be for NASCAR's image if they didn't let cup drivers participate in Xfinity. Darrell Wallace Jr. would win a lot of races. He would be really popular.

>>74627921
So true

>>74627907
thats nice, here i almost fell asleep in the third segment

>>74627883
Don't you get it goy, Xfinity NEEDS cup drivers or else the fans will be confused when their favorite Cup babby isn't racing
