What exactly was the gain to be had with running different spacers anyway? Someone on another forum said that with the spacers being hollow, they resonate the engine vibrations through the Earnhardt bar into the roof and into those hollow spacers. It creates a small bubble of high pressure inside t...
Someone said that's the preliminary entry list and more might be added later. Hopefully that's the case but I have no qualms about 30 something quality trucks going for 20 spots either.
You know, it's much more rage-worthy when the Cup guys don't dominate the entire race. When Kyle leads 99% of a race, you end up falling asleep before lap 50, wake up to find him in victory lane, and you only feel slightly agitated about it. Tonight's race just gets your hopes up, then proceeds to s...
In the past 5 years, Ralph Shaheen's criminally-short tenure in the TNT booth in '09 has likely come the closest to sounding like a person who actually gives a shit about what's happening in the race.
I was bored at work the other day, so I did some stat and number crunching while looking at some of the greats in the sport. There's been a lot of talk about comparing Jimmie Johnson to Dale Earnhardt and Richard Petty in recent days... drivers are definitely a forever-changing breed, so comparing J...
Just looking at the lead changes from years past and in the COT and Gen6 days, its never really been ALL that different...There always has been dominators, Underdogs usually get 1-3 races a year, rest are filled with big teams. In our "glory days" of the late 90's...Jeff Gordon was winning...
Now now.. you can't really compare eras anyways. The points system for the majority of Petty's championships was way different, short fields, 40-60+ races per season, etc. The stuff is always evolving. A champion is someone who excels based on the rules presented and finishes first out of others com...
I like Bestwick because it's genuine emotion. Sadler's crash in '03 for example was one of his better calls… The Nationwide finish at Daytona in 2012 was great. An example of bad play by play would be Dr. Jerry's career in the booth… Whether there was emotion or not it didn't come through in his cal...
