Having these new teams being competitive immediately is so good for NASCAR
Gonna feel bad for a lot of the talent who struggle like Burton in the cup over the next few years
Competition is huge now more than ever
@@TheJoviLovi Wood Brothers need more support or more new people too
@@JackCallSportsOr they should hire guys based on talent and not money. Look at DiBenedetto. He took a mediocre Rackley team and carried them to the truck chase. Meanwhile Harrison Burton has 4 top 10’s in 2 years and is running 30th almost every week and may not be racing in cup next season. The majority of Ford’s pipeline are busts.
@@GatoradeCupSeriesX94 Fuck it, throw Ryan Sieg in the #21.
@@JackCallSportsYea Penske dosen't really help them much. Honestly I hate to say this because all the history they have with ford but I think wood brothers should join toyota
Nascar didn’t realize that close racing and good racing are two very different things
Atleast we don’t have Verstappen win every week
@@Thegreatdeer53Remember me from earlier?
@@Andrew0506u3e yes
@@Thegreatdeer53😂😂😂😂😂 facts.
NASCAR has both.
I've had more non-nascar people ask me about the sport in the last year and a half than I've ever experienced. And, tbh, it started with the hail melon.
Ross Chastain fucks it into the wall and saves NASCAR, I just wish the short track racing was a little better
@@cayorne they’ll figure it out, they just need time. Next Gen is only in its second year.
I have had this experience for the last few years. Ever since the pandemic, more and more people I know are into it, which is awesome. As a kid, I was the only one.
@@cayorneGet Floracing. Watch the modifieds, anf all the other great series on there like the Cars tour that Dale Jr I think owns and runs, weekly series, dirt. You will be able to watch racing every night of the week. Unfortunately shorts tracks in Cup have been and will always be boring. It’s just at an all time low now.
I started paying closer attention to Nascar during the pandemic, when I bought my first Nascar scale model. Then the Next Gens came and it showed just how exciting the series can be.
The Next Gen’s parity has been a huge breath of fresh air. While the big teams still keep up their usual preformance, seeing the new teams of 23XI and Trackhouse come quickly into a stride alongside Roush coming back into form and having like 5-7 teams in contention every week is so much fun.
The Gen 7 is basically the Jackson Storm of Nascar stock cars.
No one is passing with the car. The parity has made the races a snoozefest.
@@MaLva500Snoozefest is still better than turd
@@MaLva500not intermediate tracks
The thing I like the most about the current gen is that Nascar is putting more emphasis in setup. I would tweak a bit the mandatory parts, make it more about requirements than one specific provider, but the intent, from what I've seen, is ending the practice of build a chassi for road courses, a chassi for intermediates, you get the idea.
They want a chassi and want everyone to change the setups and adapt. The final goal is not reached yet, but the walk is being done with stride.
Between diversifying the tracks, getting the car right & absolutely slaying at Le Mans, I've been re-engaged in a way I haven't in probably 15 years. It's been enjoyable as hell this season, and for the first time in a while I'm optimistic about its future
Me too. Re-engaged is the perfect way to put it. And indycar is killing it this year, too.
Chicago made me so happy 😂. I wanna see it again next year so bad, one of the greatest races I’ve ever seen.
Car only having 550 HP is not getting it right
@@MaLva500 if they go the full 702 the cars will fly off the track. Jimmie Johnson was doing like 220-230 unrestricted on the new car & said it was unraceable
Slaying at lemans? Looks like someone didnt really watch the race...
God what I’d do for nascar to bounce back in popularity
we are slowy creeping back to popularity
Probably will never get back to the 90’s early 2000’s popularity but slowly but surely they’re making a comeback
Frankly, if that ever happens it'll be some odd surge, then a huge plummet in viewship in a handful of years.
Because whatever changes they'll make will likely destroy any kind of long term stability for the sport, like it's always been since the dawn of the millennium.
Perhaps if they'd stop alienating their core audience
@@clayton5584 ovals are so interesting.
As a NASCAR fan that's been watching for 15 years, I'm glad NASCAR found a way to evolve instead of doing the same copy and paste each year.
Yes, there are some areas that need improvement, in terms of safety, judgement calls, and other moves they make, but still, it's still very enjoyable to this day
The Garage 56 car at the Circuit de la Sarthe for the 24hrs of Le Mans was an absolute gamechanger for the sport imo. Sure they were already evolving and shaking things up, but hearing about, let alone seeing a damn NASCAR coming all the way overseas to compete in arguably one of the most challenging motorsport competitions of all time was no joke. NASCAR just up and said "You thought shit was already wild? Hell no, we're just getting started."
And the fact the ACO absolutely welcomed that project and asked for the NASCAR-style pitstops with going in through the door and the jack in the Le Mans pitlane is what highlighted what Garage 56 should be as well. It's exciting and brings a new perspective to motorsport. In an ideal world, we'd have seen a car each from Chevrolet, Ford and Toyota. Three cars like that would be insanity.
@@RacingAtHome of course the ACO has made changes to the race and the circuit, but overall they see the race as not only a race, but as a showcase to racing. Innovation is a part of Le Mans, and should be part of every decent series
Honestly, watching SvG winning On first street circuit in history of nascar, got me addicted to that series. And I'm saying it while being an F1 European fanboy. Ever since been tuning in to watch cup and xfinity races week after week. It becomes more enjoyable than some European series. NASCAR should introduce more street circuits, as well as coming back to it's roots and doing more dirt races too. More variety, more moments to enjoy!
V8 Supercars, where SvG came from, is also one hell of a series. They all drive like they have a respawn point, and they probably do, to be honest.
How about a retro plug-in halfway through the season? Racing on dirt track with the first and second ever historic NASCAR vehicles. 2-3 races long rebreather.
I've been a NASCAR fan for 25 years and counting and it's absolutely fascinating how times have changed throughout the 75 year history and TBH It's worthy of a Timeline Series similar to Weird History's Timeline Series to celebrate NASCAR's 75th Anniversary
Name checks out 😂
@@Grim555 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
18:33 there were only 28 different winners in the *entire* Car of Tomorrow. We've had 23 already in the Next Gen, and we're not even two years in.
Assuming you made this comment when the video came out, you can add four to that with McDowell, Allmendinger, Elliot and Keselowski so we're one off it on 27.
@@RacingAtHome 26, but yeah. Chase won several races in 2022.

Nascar is starting to become unrecognizable from its old self and it's probably the best thing that could've happened to it
That's laughable considering people know the old nascar way better than current nascar
@@waltersobchak8080and where was that getting them?
@@waltersobchak8080 you sure about that bc it I remember correctly up until 2022 from 2005 Nascar lost more than 60% of it's viewership on tv
@@waltersobchak8080 wanna justify that? we currently have a huge variety of tracks, tons of different drivers and teams with a chance to win and a car that produces good racing. sure its far from perfect but i'm still pretty happy with what we're getting
but no, obviously racing on a cookie cutter intermediate track nearly every week with the same few teams and drivers winning everything (including jimmie johnson winning 5 championships in a row) is clearly better because reasons
@@brianglennon8302for most of that 60% it was the introduction of the point system that killed it.
With increased competition and variety of tracks I'd love to see them ditch the playoff format and just go with a full season point accumulation to determine the champ again.
Bingo! That and quit throwing cautions for each stage. The stage points are fine, quit throwing cautions though.
NASCAR is having a renaissance, and I’m all for it. Haven’t paid attention as much since I was a kid
They came back to North Wilkesboro. NASCAR is ending their decade of malaise and I'm excited for all the racing to come.
The best thing about this revolution is there's still plenty worth highlighting
The resurgence of Richard Childress Racing thanks to Reddick and Kyle Busch (?!)
Brad Keselowski becoming a co-owner of Roush and in less than two years has created a team that keeps pace with Penske
The massive improvement of Spire, Front Row Motorsports, and JTG Daugherty to where the latter two are competitive enough to qualify on POINTS
Rain Tires to help with short tracks and road courses, in a period where rain has been arguably the most volatile
Xfinity signing a deal with CW ensuring every household will have access to the 2nd tier series
When I became a fan at the 2019 Coca Cola 600, the changes are almost exclusively what I wanted after that season concluded. It's becoming not only better, but as a result the product is far easier to pitch to people and is getting further away from the stereotypes that have plagued the sport since Talladega Nights and Danica Patrick
And to add to this, with Gis's win, we've got drivers like Brodie Kostecki, Will Brown and Cam Waters. In response to Trackhouse's Project 91, RFK have a Stage 60 program which brought in drivers in a similar way started with David Ragan at Daytona but properly starting with Cam Waters at Sonoma.
I know with this system it's all but a gamble, but one thing that really makes me mad in Nascar is how Childress never had any championships outside of his six with Dale.
"For the first time, NASCAR would be running a street race."
Meanwhile, the sport raced a half-beach, half-street circuit at Daytona Beach way before the iconic 2.5 mile oval was ever built. But looks like everyone has forgotten about that.
There's a difference between road and street, the Daytona beach was half road not half steet.
Plus the Pinty's series are the Marquee event at the Grand Prix De Trois Rivieres, North America's oldest street circuit, and have run there since 2000.
because that was 70 years ago and most of us weren't alive then, don't see how that's relevant it was beach and road not a city street circuit
I mean, if you have watched it
Most likely chance you already on graveyard
@@presinald Exactly. Being completely ignorant of the past is a superpower for young people. You want to pretend everything that is a 'first' for you must be the first since you believe history started with your presence.
i grew up in a nascar house but lost interest over time... but in the past few months nascar has slowly been gaining my attention. I even went to a local short track a few weeks ago
As a Chicagoan who was a NASCAR super fan from 3-8 years old before losing interest, that street race was reinvigorating. It made me really appreciate how fun NASCAR is, as someone who became an F1 snob in high school.
Dude you have a great cross between slapshoes and emplemon in terms of style and it makes your videos so damn addicting
I been getting back into NASCAR lately, I haven't watched sense 2007. And I've been impressed with the product they put out now. Despite being different than from what I was used too back then.
Like you said it was just watching the races on repeat. The same teams and cars usually dominate. And it just made it a bore to watch.
I recently started watching nascar again for the first time since I was a kid and it's been so much fun to watch! It's refreshing to see someone talk about nascar reinventing itself in a positive way after all the negativity on twitter
Largely because it's relatively safe, NASCAR is the perfect series for hosting drivers from other series. If a guest driver crashes, chances are nothing too serious happens. If the guest driver wins or just finishes strong, it's a huge publicity boost to NASCAR. I'd love to see an International exhibition race, with champion drivers from other series and a monster sized prize pool.
For someone who has only started watching and paying attention to NASCAR in 2020, I actually love the different style tracks, watching Christopher Bell win Bristol dirt and Shane Van Gisenberg win in Chicago and most of all are these Gen7 cars. NASCAR is different, but it looks like it's in good timing.
The next big thing I hope NASCAR does is get rid of the Playoffs and bring back a year-in points format. Maybe not the same exact Lapford Winston Cup Points Format, but one that actually acknowledges the best driver of the year; not just the last race.
Unfortunately that's not happening because
1) Year-end drama is no longer guaranteed, one of the many purposes of the Playoffs
2) The end-of-year viewership will nose dive hard compared to recent years
3) It keeps things exciting, at least to NASCAR and newer fans
Now, don't get me wrong, I would love an outright merit based system, but the Networks, big brass and the fans have practically voted for this to be a reality, and it doesn't seem to be leaving anytime soon.
@@BladeBrigade7 I agree with all three points, but especially with the final paragraph. We come back to a season long points system, the first time someone does it like Kenseth in 2003 we will hear people b***hing. Beucase, to adapt the words of Carnac the Magnificent, the three qualifications to be a nascar fan for most is spit, scratch and complain.
I would, however, put something for you to answer: would make the points a limited resource solve this? Like giving'em only to, say the top 15. I know on track battles would be mad.
What people fail to realize about SVG (Shave Van Gisbergen) is not only does he excel in racing Heavy Racecars and Endurance Racing, He's also one of the greatest Wet Weather Drivers, EVER, PERIOD. So, the fact that Chicago was wet, and it's a city course/street circuit, it was like everything just lined up all at once. I think he knew it was a stage set up for him to succeed. And he didn't disappoint.
NASCAR was my foot in the door to Motorsports. Fell in love with it a couple years before the COT Era and when racing got predictable, I took a break and complained “make NASCAR great again.” Well, low and behold! Great video, man!
This next gen era is really making me proud to be a NASCAR fan
The racing is better (Mostly
The attendance is better
And overall NASCAR is on the up climb
Slowly but surely overtime NASCAR will become widely loved again like it once was
You wouldn't believe how the non-NASCAR EU crowd at Le Mans literally was rooting at the top of their lungs for the Chevy. It was a delight to witness. NASCAR is bound to follow what happened to F1 a few years back : rejuvenated interest. And that's all we're asking for.
It was great to watch the Chicago street race. I was rooting for SVG and he maybe my new favorite driver. Can't believe I'm saying this, sure I don't like playoffs and stage racing, but NASCAR's health is looking better than when Brian France was in charge.
I really got into NASCAR around 2016. Those first few years were rough. But, ever since they started changing the sport, I have not missed a single race. Parody is at an all time high, the racing is exciting, and the whole product itself is amazing. Is nice to see it start to change with the times
Parody is right 👍
Parity?
The Bristol dirt track was one of the coolest races I’ve seen on the NASCAR schedule in a while. Watching the drivers display their extreme pedal control as they slide around every corner was just the best.
As a Supercars fan, the new form of NASCAR now has me interested.
Shane Van Gisbergen made me a supercar and an SVG fan with that win. I had just visited Australia and heard about suoercars, and it followed me home, he won
Nascar has been kicking ass lately, and I say that as a person who watches highlight reels from every race series because there's no reason not to.
This is the first time I've seen a take on modern nascar of "if a car can run on it, we'll race on it" and honestly I'm here for it. That's a hell of a niche to carve out.
Seeing that Roval finish highlight on UA-cam made me want to get back into NASCAR (after decades of being away).
In general, I've appreciated the changes NASCAR has made, despite a few missteps...I LOVE the newfound variety of tracks!
Keep up the great work, you're doing an awesome job with these videos, look forward to every one of em!
Perfect timing. I just got the random urge to watch an Elly productions video only to see that a new one was posted one minute ago.
I'm from Europe and started watching in 2017 (had seen a race here and there in the CoT era, but never really followed a season). I guess it was good timing!
Growing up friends and family always loved watching nascar. I'd keep an open mind and would occasionally try to watch but I'd always get bored. The introduction of stages, road courses, nascar on dirt, and the Chicago street race has slowly turned me into a fan over the last few years.
as someone who got into racing relatively recently I'm loving these new NASCAR races they're just straight up fun to watch
I saw a few races here and there in 2021, but 2022 is definitely the year I got hooked back into NASCAR. The sport still has flaws IMO but at this rate the good changes outweigh the bad and it's very good racing overall! Hell I even went to the Truck and Xfinity races at Pocono a few weeks ago! The first NASCAR race I attended in 18 years
I LOVE this new direction NASCAR is taking. Just gotta iron out the safety issues, maybe get another short track and give North Wilkesboro a cup date, we’d be golden. Another idea is to have two race dates be “wild card” slots where the intermediate tracks could be rotated every year to keep the schedule even more fresh, and have fans vote on the track possibly to keep fans engaged. I’m 22 and grew up a NASCAR fan, fell out of love with it by the beginning of the Gen 6 car, and fell back into it hard in 2021. This is a new era and I’m all for it!
You’re rapidly becoming my favorite long form NASCAR creator, you are always incredibly well researched and you honestly remind me of Foolish Baseball in your unique style and incredibly detailed and well thought out points. Keep up the great work brother!
I've been watching NASCAR since I was 4 years old now, I'm 12 Seeing the sport at bowling over time. It doesn't feel real. But at the same time it feels great. We finally have new short tracks. We finally have a street course and we finally have a third track and we finally have on you super speedway. It doesn't feel real. But at the same time if feels good, how will NASCAR will look like for the next 5 years? I don't know but this is such a good year to be a Nascar fan!!
There’s definitely a NASCAR renaissance going on right now.
I can’t tell you how much I appreciate this video. It really highlighted why I still watch. The 2010’s was memorable no doubt, but it lacked growth and I was worried about the sport in the second half of the decade. What makes Nascar cool again is that they finally a general direction they want to take and I won’t agree with it all, but it really is cool being a fan right now seeing the sport change right in front of us
These changes have happened so quickly and so rapidly that it's really remarkable and something that is worthy of being commendable.
The simple thing that can be done is to embrace change instead of cling onto the past then you can get a view of what the future will be like
It's nice seeing an actual positive outlook on NASCAR, since so much of everything is just endlessly dumping on its flaws, from insiders and outsiders alike. Seems that even when we have an incredible race (like at Kansas this year), there's always a "yes but..." from a big group of people.
i fell off watching nascar after 2016, it was just so boring for me to watch. getting into other motorsports like f1 and indy encourage to go back and give it a chance and the breath of fresh air and allowed me to fall in love with the sport again. it’s got it’s flaws, but i can’t believe nascar fans are calling this era terrible, it’s so amazing to be able to witness
I just love how on the final lap in 2018 in the roval race that Rick Allen had nothing to say. "the final banked curve at Charlotte roval" inspirational words
You are so criminally underrated it hurts
That Lemans car makes some of the most glorious engine noise that has ever been.
Its performance in the race was really impressive until that gearbox shat itself. Nice to see them let the Garage 56 car back out after changing it. It was really interesting to hear about its cornering being better than its top end.
Dirt tracks. Man that was wild. Maybe in a few years NASCAR will add in a time attack rally race just for the hell of it (I would love to see that.... be a throwback to the 60s :D)
addendum: I'm not a NASCAR fan, not even really a fan of circuit racing. Yet I have to say in the past 5 years or so, they have been doing a great job at demolishing that "everything is an oval or triangle" feature (read: bug) NASCAR had for so long
the thing thats gonna kill my heart is when nascar goes electric
As someone who's always been a WRC/F1/WEC/SuperGT fan it was huge to actually see a NASCAR properly compete at Le Mans. They punched above their weight, sounded GREAT and truly impressed me with the track performance. Consider me intrigued if that's the direction NASCAR wants to go in because it gave me the tingles.
13:09 bro lined that up so well😂
Fun fact, 1:24 is still Ford's most recent road course win, and it only happened because a Chevy took out a Toyota.
I didn’t know you were an MTJ fan, he’s my fav Toyota driver and in my overall top 5
Look, I watched the Chicago race to see what kind of damage they would do to my beloved city, and I left hooked on NASCAR
yeah, since the next gen car i always thought that this was their first step of reinventing themselves.
How many drivers have had wins taken away from them because of idiot moves from chase Briscoe? Bristol dirt(reddick), Coke 600(Larson), indy roval (Hamlin)
So much interest in NASCAR now from down under .. cannot wait to see SVG get a crack at the big show. Just have no idea what broadcast platforms it is shown on - we don’t get a lot of choice in NZ!
There's been some good changes, shaking up the schedule has been a big difference as has the Next Gen car.
This has slowly become my favorite nascar channel. The production value is so on point, keep up the fantastic work.❤
in nascars defense the pocono double-header was supposed to exist pre-covid anyway. it was a schedule change implemented in the 2019 off-season
One complaint that's probably valid is I've heard complaints that crashes hurt more.
Makes sense, really. One of the main ways that cars are engineered to minimize the force of impacts is through the use of "crumple zones". When you make a car as tough and durable as the Next Gen, where nothing really crumples under impact, that just means there's a lot more force being directed into the cabin and the driver. Basic physics at play.
Hittin em with the Deep rock sound track.
Based
I seem to appreciate NASCAR more and more every day from what they do. You just gotta sit and wait for what's about to come.
I wouldn't be surprised next year to see a second or maybe third street race on the schedule to join Chicago
Great video man 👍. I'm new to the sport and I'm loving the new tracks and street races its more competitive and intense. Netflix should do a series on nascar like they did with F1, I feel in combination with your videos new fans will be drawn to the sport and it can only get better and better.
Gotta love a 0:33 a red bull on top of a podium that says ferrari
In my ~10 years watching nascar these last 2 have been the ones that I have made sure I miss as few races as possible.
Staying up late till the wee hours of my European Sunday nights.
Seriously dope content bro! I’m a budding F1 fan and have never really been into NASCAR though I’ve attended 2 races (both good times). This video was a great overview of what nascar has been up to and I may have to catch the next road race!
Ngl, youve made me really want to check out some NASCAR. Love your passion and love that NASCAR is trying to break the stereotypes. -F1 fan
Seeing the man that got me into V8 Supercars, pull off an upset win in Nascar, it brought me back... I left with Dale Jr was about to go to Hendrick Motorsports
I was at the chicago street race because my wife won tickets on instagram. now, I remember liking nascar as a little kid because of the loud cars and the speed (and the video games), but had never been to a race, and lost interest as I got older and started understanding the intricacies of football and baseball. when we got to the race weekend on saturday and experienced the first car whiz by, my exact words were "oh I'm sorry, I didn't realize how FUCKING AWESOME THIS IS" and I've watched every race since that weekend. To me, a recent convert who has a mild understanding of the sport as it existed 20 years ago, the variety of tracks that I've seen so far, and the fact that there seems to be a pretty wide variety of top-tier racers is great. I get why the old guard of fans would be wary of these changes, and why some wouldn't like someone like me (although all the nascar lifelong die hards I met at Chicago were all welcoming and hugely educational to me and my wife), but these are the kind of things that nascar has to do to become relevant on a world stage, and not just be a regional marvel.
should have seen it 15 years ago
before it went WOKE
it was AWESOME
Trackhouse, technically, isn't a new team from inheriting Ganassi's equipment and shop, but still a very strong force for change among the teams.
Marcos ambrose walked so svg could run.
Really enjoyed this overview and commentary...subscribed!
It's unfortunate that they ruined the best of the intermediate tracks and left Road America of all places for stupid street racing, but all the other schedule changes I've really liked. I've wanted more road courses for years and for them to at least try out dirt racing. If only they'd go back to full season points and end overtime completely imo (which I never really minded until the last few years), it would literally be perfect
honestly overtime at the road courses is the only thing i don't like, and with how competitive the field is now full season points would be entertaining
Street racing was kinda questionable to me. It kinda worked, but don't underestimate what stupid nonsense politics can do. There's good chance it may not return. Why not just sacrifice one of Richmond dates for Chicagoland. I'm also upset the fact Road America was removed from Cup schedule. With so many teams being consistant somehow, sure why not bring back the full season points.
@@chromediesel444 I have a question regarding the scheduling? Do you think that there are tracks that doesn't need two dates? I would put in Daytona, Dega, Darlington and probably Atlanta.
There are other solid ones with two, but I feel this cuts the real power of the schedule
I can't wait to see more teams getting more competitive and competing for playoff spots (wake up SHR!)
You are the only reason i watch Nascar, without you i had 0 intrest in that series
With all this info laid out here in this video, I really do appreciate NASCAR for changing in different ways that might not be traditionally accepted. Stuff like the clash, Bristol dirt, Chicago, etc while not so popular, brings testing and change to the sport that allows NASCAR to figure out better ways to implement these tests to make the best racing product possible.
I’ve been a fan since a kid and I stopped watching since Jeff Gordon retired but since 2020…. It really feels like NASCAR is finally on the come up.
Thank you. This was a great reflection on the last half-decade. I've been a fan for (oh geez) 30 years now. I'm loving what NASCAR is doing in terms of trying to broaden the appeal with various track types and encouraging internationally-recognized drivers to come in and show what they can do. The only area I wish they'd revert is with the championship. I despise the playoffs and I'd settle for having the Chase format back, but I'd greatly prefer they go back to a season-long points accumulation format. Especially now with the variation in the tracks, the championship should reflect consistency throughout the season.
Might need to start watching NASCAR, love road racing and now they run everywhere, and not just 2 token roads.
Im now 43 and a diehard Bill Elliott fan for life, watching the phoenix rebirth of the sport is interesting to watch, my son is now interested in motorsports, and he hated it 3 years ago. Keep it up
I always remember seeing SVG make history for a race that I wasn’t even excited about going to lmao
So my favorite part of these videos is when he asks a question that no one has an answer to and then he just doesn’t respond and moves on.😂
I hadn't followed Nascar really since the... 2000s? I ended up getting more into WEC, IMSA, and recently Indycar. But this last year or two of Nascar is more entertaining for me than it ever was before, really loving how the new cars and track variety making the races more interesting.
Always a good day when he posts
Clicked because of the amazing thumbnail and stayed for the killer video. Good shit dude.
I've never been a NASCAR fan. I've watched a few races and was even taken to one almost 20 years ago (That was actually a lot of fun!).. I didn't even search for this video... But, I watched it and it inspired me to look at when the next race is, so I can tune in... 3 hours from now. I'm going in. 😎
As a guy who fell out of Nascar because it was the snooze fest, I regret not watching the recent years, but I did watch the lemans 24hr and dammit it was something to behold, that v8 tore up the field
Watching that svg win has definitely made me a nascar fan. It is so much better to watch now than years past
I like the use of all the deep rock galactic sounds in this. ROCK AND STONE
Did I hear a rock and stone?
The Cup Series is beginning to become worth watching each week, which for a while it wasn't. There's currently a great group of drivers of differing age and experience with mixed personalities all having success. The sport feels vibrant again, and the Garage 56 Le Mans entry and Project 91 team (with the SVG win) are generating great exposure worldwide for the racing and the cars. I'm genuinely excited for the next race at IMS and honestly for the future of the sport.
Top this off with the Camaro going HAM at Le Mans, suddenly the world is finally getting past the old stereotypes. It's a good time to be a fan.
unfortunately we get fans (not here) that don't want those old stereotypes to go.
in their opinion the civil war would still be kickin'
2022 has been one of the best seasons in NASCAR history, Cup Series and xFinity Series were truly unbelievable. A few things could be improved, but they are going in a good direction.
i tapped on this video and midway through i had to check the sub count, 22k is criminally underrated. i know the tiniest amount about nascar but the entire video had me glued. the unhinged feeling of this video is amazing
