New Hampshire also gets a lot of the Canadian fans. I went to both races this year and was pleased to see the turnout. I think a nighttime race in July would even boost that further. The next closest oval is at Pocono and it's a haul and a half to get there. I'd love to see Loudon a bit easier to pass in.

What a writeup; thanks.

I had read about the loss of the Arca date, can't remember, and it certainly worries me. Rockingham is a wonderful place to watch a race on TV (haven't been there in real life).

That was a very very good post. Thank you for taking the time to type it.

Credit where credit is due, from a long-time Ohio State hater (I grew up around way too many Ohio State fans — they're almost as bad as Steelers fans). They really are the best damn band in the land, or one of them at least. And script Ohio can get even a hater stoked. And the School for the Blind out there — imagine…

This was a great oppertunity for some kids. Leave it to a few haters to take away from it. Hope it made you feel great about yourselves. I feel bad for the posters but great for the students at OSSB.

Much as I love Rooster Teeth, I'm not going to argue that there's any reason for you to watch their videos if you don't want to, and I'm in no way condoning casual sexism, even in a joking manner. I will, however, say that this video features someone (Michael) whose entire personality is that he's angry at everyone…

Ahh nope I was thinking of the Waterford Speedbowl in Waterford CT.

I would say tech line going to have some new buckets...would be interesting to see where they got those buckets.

I agree with LXA, letting him pass is not a big a deal as inciting a yellow flag or if he had help holding up Gordon while he passed but that didn't happen. What Bowyer did was much worse and he should have been thrown out of the Chase for it. MWR should have been suspended for the last 10 races. How's that for a fine?

Gordon mathematically eliminated Bowyer from the title fight at Phoenix last year. This was payback.

The SST series has actually been doing better than expected, aside from the carnage the drivers have brought. True they haven't sold out any stadiums and when you see the crowd on camera it looks pretty pathetic, but they never expected to sell out the house, especially in their first year. These are 80,000 seat…

Is iRacing the absolute best in realism? Might not be, but the racing structure they offer is what makes it worth every penny. I've tried other sims and have yet to find anything that can compete with iRacing's racing structure.

If anyone signs up I'm happy to answer any questions you might have to make getting started easier. All I ask is that you use me as a reference when you sign up since they give credits for referring members :) (I'll do it anyhow but the extra $10 for referrals is nice)

I'm most impressed by the fact that the Cessna is road legal.

"One of his favorite things to do is put on LeBron's championship ring (he has to use two fingers)."

Armco is actually the preferred barrier form recommended by the FIA for all FIA Grade 1 (aka F1) tracks, even COTA is almost entirely lined with it. Tire Barriers are pretty standard fare in F1 as well, though more and more tracks are replacing them with TecPro Barriers.

Once upon a time...

Just to make sure this doesn't slip through the cracks, since it's a mid-week event:
