An entire nation goes mad.
And I’m going to start a small business so I can get some small business insurance from AmTrust. Last edited by Adam43; 7 Jul 2024 at 22:08. |

I'd forgotten the start cause I forget race coverage starts 3 days before the actual race start. Thankfully it was recording so think I'm about 30 min behind but commercials will help

You'll be with us in no time!
Pits open after Stage 1 - it is needed. |

Apparently corners are skinnier with contact rotation, so far no insanity but some point that's gonna go wrong and make mess

So far I've noticed the Cup 'regulars' take the Clarkson MB approach to an apex. I could fight comfortably on the track between the apex and Gibbs most laps, SVG well not so much
That and the new Mustang front wings are GROSS on a white car. And the wet tires drivers need to be parked, absolutely a joke at the end of S1, go park it if you think you need rains |

First caution the flag was waving either green or blue right in front of the car instead of a yellow?? My TV skipped from caution to S1 final lap and damn it got dark quick there. And dear God can anyone look out a window or have a spotter any where, that was terrible at pit out

Briscoe coming in HOT through the mist
SVG done, didn't see Briscoe hit him even though they're saying he was Edit, he DID NOT hit SVG at all He didn't get hit at all, got caught up in water, you could hear it spin up and straight to the wall. Problem with being closer to the corner, you aren't in the others path They are insistent in the contact aren't they. Backed out up multiple times and you can see between the cars. It happens and guess now that the rain driver is out let's red flag it Last edited by broadrun96; 7 Jul 2024 at 22:33. |

I’m making this up. I could research, but I rather just make up stuff and ask if it is right. |

I hadn't noticed before, there isn't a blue flag move over reg I don't believe. But I think they did add local yellow flag option with the expansion of road courses. But GARRA did have a moist track flag so who knows what the flag standard and road race rules are

I say this as an avowed let them sort it on the track within reason but this nonsense in Nascar is too far
https://x.com/NASCARonNBC/status/1810123959809020392 As much for safety as guys have to fix that and it sure as hell will not be Bubba getting out the tools |

The one that made us think of this was very easy to see so perhaps they shouldn't have shown it |

I don't think it is conclusive - but if you look at the onboard from 1:16 here - https://sports.yahoo.com/briscoe-sen...23136337.html? - it definitely looks like contact is made (there is a slight jolt at the point of impact).

There's also this onboard from Briscoe's car...... the hood reacts to the contact with SVG's car at about the 23 or 24 second mark. There is zero hood movement along the entire start/finish straight until the moment he hits SVG, and the hood moves again as Briscoe hits the tire barrier.
Is THAT enough for you, broadrun96? |
