Given the current cars, this surface, and this track; I think Sunday might be a career day for aero push.

I'm most interested in the ARCA race. Hoping Ross Kenseth has a good showing.

Eh the kid in me doesn't mind and my wife and her friends have wedding shower to go to so us guys are just going to drink and go see the movie then hit up the pool afterwards. We could careless how crappy the movie really is but it's something different.

Dinos eating people > NASCAR aero push

At best it's a draw. I mean, they're both essentially embarrassingly pathetic adaptations of once-brilliant original material.

Yeah, I saw a clip from the new JP. The one when the kids jump off the waterfall. It looked terrible.

At least when a movie's bad, there's entertainment to be had in making fun of it, and there's the possibility of the next movie you see being good. NASCAR being bad is just depressing and hopeless because the next race is going to be just as abysmal as the current one.

Exactly. We can pour a drink after and crack up about the pathetic scenes and horrible dialogue. A movie that we are only going to for fun. With the race, I can be bored and pissed all the way through only to see the 48 or 4 win and felt like someone ran over my dog.

I feel the Cup & NXS race will be dreadful to watch, but maybe we will get lucky and it will be a good race. Hopefully the Truck race is good, Gateway is normally a good race in any series. Just a shame looking at some of the car counts in ARCA & Canadian Tire though :(

Looking forward to the other races outside of the stock car realm the most this weekend though. Sucks that the coverage of LeMans is getting butchered to hell here though.

21 cars for the ARCA race.... it's like it hurts them to be involved with NASCAR now.

Just showed an onboard lap with Jaff in practice. Low speed in t1/2 = 197, and in t3/4 = 191. It wasn't even his fastest lap of the session.

Fuck you NASCAR.

On one hand, it's impressive they can carry that corner speed.

On the other hand, fuck you NASCAR. That is terrible for racing.

Here's something for us to get our hopes up on, only to likely be disappointed: http://www.motorsport.com/nascar-cup/ne ... y-speedway
