How did this look on TV, guys? From there it was a tad confusing at first but after things got going, it became clear the race was decided before turn 1. Not a horrible idea, could use some tweaks in execution, imo. Still prefer the old "full speed" 3 lap single car All Star qualifying.
I definitely agree with what you said. The racing was decided so soon that it wasn’t really a race at all, I thought that they would line them up at the start finish line and do the 3 lap qualifying but with 2 cars when I first heard about it so I was really excited. When it was this I was pretty bummed out
Hopefully you are at the race today as well since I will also be in attendance. I have always wanted to try my hand at iRacing and now finally have a pc that can run it. I was hoping if you could give some advice on wheels
Looked a bit better but not much better I mean it was hilarious with people stalling on the line but what if they did this instead used the full pit lane as the drag strip instead charging in full speed to a stop then the race isn't only in the pit crews hands
I think they should do the full speed thing with a bracket style but because if safety it would be one car at a time but the fastest from each round advance. If we were to do it head to head like this I think ours would have to have a limit of around 100. I see a lot of iRacing hosted races doing this somehow
@@alexbourgeois7863 this was like the old pit stop challenge, and the carb day pit stop for the Indy 500, but they get to actually run around for a lap. It’s a creative idea!
If they do this again, they should reduce the track length (maybe start at pitroad entrance, finish at pit exit, with the pit boxes at the start finish), and they should also use an actual Christmas tree.
They should of announced the rules there at the track. When I went to Phoenix that was one thing they lacked was giving fans a heads up about what’s going on.
This format needs help....Not a single pass on the track was made.... Why not line the cars up based on points position...Pit selection will be in the order of points, if your 1st you get first selection so on so forth....Run 25 laps with a 4 tire pit stop before lap 23....Caution laps do not count....Only top 15 move in to a chance for the mill, and don't have to race in the open.......The other 20 plus cars race in the open, with same format.........with top 5 moving on, and then of course you have a fan vote.....So a total of 21 cars to start with a chance at the mill...Then 3- 30 lap shootouts with one pit stop under green 4 tire change, before lap 28 in each, caution laps do not count, and each team can choose to pit or not during the caution flags...Each have last 5 places being knocked out.....So 21 to 16 to 11 Racing for the mill.......
I think its a cool concept, maybe a tweak of 2 but looks fun to watch and makes it a real team effort. I live in The Netherlands en when broadcast begins its immediately begins with the race so never had seen it.
I don't care what they do Charlotte always had a certain magic about it the event everything was bigger better it just had a certain thing about it that nowhere else is ever going to have
They should have started in the pit box, use the tree and run one lap then come in for a stop at pit road speed, then run another lap. The format used give no chance for a driver to make up time. Whoever got dropped first was gone. If the stop was after a lap, a driver could make up time by getting down to pit road speed better or stopping in the box better.
This shit is becoming a carnival side show. Sunday will be what I have watched for 35+ years. F1 Monaco then the American Great Race the Indianapolis 500 and then the what ever you call nascar anymore the 600 which I will watch the start turn it to something else and and if I'm awake with 10 to go I might watch. Nascar is just not that good anymore. Matter fact it sucks.
Smartass comment: shoulda had the tire carriers hop through tires like an obstacle course. Constructive comment: would have loved to see them do an 1/8 mile drag down pit road, stop in the box, change 4 tires, then race to complete the lap.
Screw nascar, local dirt tracks are way better. Can't wait to see how long these new generation fans lasts. Attendance is at all time low, nobody cares anymore. Before long nascar will implement demolition durby as a race.
While this is different, it is not a new thing. Years ago NASCAR used to do this nearly he same way, one lap of the track, complete 4 tire pit stop than an exit lap with the end being at the start finish line.
Yep the kicker was that they turned off the track coming out of the turn, came down pit road at really high speed and had to hit their pit box without over shooting it. That was awesome! This format is interesting too

I was there but feel like it would be been more epic if they did it on pit entrance and did a true drag race down the pits into turn 1

As a pure Motorsports fanatic, I actually find this cool
This was an amazing thing to do to add something different

Should run at least 2 laps to give a chance to the other driver. I think if there was a 2nd lap, Kurt would have completed the pass for the win!
The echoing “awwwww” when Larson stalled was the funniest thing I have ever seen at a NASCAR race
Alot of us was disappointed! Lol
reminds me of sports day back in elementary school 😂

I miss the no pit road speed pit stop

That’s kinda the point if it’s made to see who the fastest pit crew is.
Thank you for videoing this for everyone who wasn’t able to watch live.
Thanks for sharing this. Kind of like it. Would rather they run a dash like the WOO Sprint Cars do.
What's next jumping cars and explosions..
This entire qualifying program is just stupid. Just my opinion.
Nascar keeps coming up with all kinds of BS to try to get interest back in their racing. But dirt racing is far more interesting these days
Holy shit! Your play by play is better than Fox. Great job.
This was actually super cool
Wtf has nascar become!? It's not drag racing.
Yeah, they need to move this deal back to Charlotte and do the wide open down pit road pit stop.
This is beautiful, makes me feel like I was actually there. Love this
This should be how the final round of qualifying is done at every track.
They need to put a ramp on the back stretch!!!
Lmao
I like this idea. Now JGR can see, side by side, 18 vs 19 pit crew differences!
Thanks for the video. Happy to see people enjoy this style. I thought it was awesome
Well….that was different 👍
Pretty cool actually
what the
What the hell…..they’ve turned Nastycar into the biggest circus in sports….Pitiful 👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼
I am so excited going to the all star race today I went to both Texas races las year

This... This is so stupid. This isn't auto racing, this is gimmicky BS... NASCAR is not a real auto racing series.
Thank you for uploading this! I don't have FS1

Thanks a lot, it was a bit too late to watch live for us in europe
Another epic failure ,if you have watched for as long as I have, you realize it's been many many years since they have done anything worth a crap
I'll be at the race!
The one time Blaney‘s pit crew actually did something it’s for a useless all star event
Check out Jeff burtons segment run for the all star race back in 2002
You are better than Jessie Punch!!!!! #ChunckyChicken
NASCAR has had a lot of stupid ideas the last decade or so, this is not one of them. This is a fun idea.
Nascar has to make it like drag racing to make it exciting, Nascar racing is not.
This is called nascar not drag racing
What
Ok this pretty neat
Make it more than a 3/4 lap imo
Screw nascar, local dirt tracks are way better. Can't wait to see how long these new generation fans lasts. Attendance is at all time low, nobody cares anymore. Before long nascar will implement demolition durby as a race.
Sounds good to me
bro I just shoutout to your UA-cam channel
Most stupid thing I've ever seen, move it back to Charlotte and use the no pit road speed limit pit stops
Yep
Yes Charlotte always had a certain magic about it
The whole race should be like that
While this is different, it is not a new thing. Years ago NASCAR used to do this nearly he same way, one lap of the track, complete 4 tire pit stop than an exit lap with the end being at the start finish line.

@@eoll6322 Yep, one lap at speed then the pit stop and then out for another lap to take the flag.
once again nascar has sunk to a new low, what bs, more gimmicks not racing and thats my two cents worth
Probably should be a drag race down pit road after the pit stop. the car on the inside lane had an advantage.
Fkn nascar, reinventing wheels n fkn shit up
Thanks so much for the opportunity to see something without all the political crap! Great play by play!
This would be a great way to qualify at every track, would make the put crews mean more since they only have 1 lug tires now
