because NASCAR basically owns the coverage on the major networks. they lock out other racing series to boost their own numbers because they cant compete evenly

truly proper racing, both drivers giving it their all without knocking eachother around.

gentleman racing, a far cry from what Americans are used to

it took the Vette team awhile to get their C7's sorted out their first year but look where they are now!

im REALLY excited to see what Ford can bring here, because what a fucking battle!

god watching that HURT.

bad officiating, but also driver error (trying to go inside instead of out) killed what looked like an incredible run

theres a good reason for that, the jackass that owns NASCAR has a deal with the major networks that pushes everyone else out.

if not for that NASCAR wouldnt have squat for viewership, we’d all be watching Endurance and Rally racing.

as an American, thank you for noticing. now keep building great cars yourselves!

ive got faith in the GT program, when the C7.R’s came out they had teething issues their first races too and look at them now

If not for the fact that the France family has that stranglehold on the TV networks, this would absolutley KILL NASCAR.

this is proper racing, everyone going at it without the bullshit drama, the intentional crashes, real cars, proper drivers

heres how to fix NASCAR

go back to production models
resimplify the Chase for the cup
drivers are limited to ONE SERIES period, no big shots running the JR leagues.
liberal use of the black flag in cases of intentional wrecks (looking at the bitch Bush brothers and kaslowskei)
encourage alternate powerplant configurations
M…

yep, the rims are a dead giveaway

given just how sucessful they were and the fact of the FIAT merger, id wager a guess that Ferrari had something to do with the factory team getting shut down.

but christ that would be a truly incredible race, the best of America taking on Europ for the first time together.

i think its an Explorer, maybe an Edge but that body line looks really familiar

jesus christ, who the fuck came up with the caution clock? they need to be hooked up to a quartet of vintage Aero cars, and then drawn and quarted by them at Daytona.

this level of idicocy is going to eventually kill the sport. but hey! there is proper racing to watch elsewhere!

Much as id love to see the Vette’s take GTLM, i desperatly want the GT to win its opening race again. all as a build up for taking them back to LeMans

agreed, i really wanted to see the three way shootout between ford chevy and dodge before the Viper dies

and congrats! you two support everything wrong with automotive television!

ugh..... gas monkey...... those mental midgets give every car guy a bad name

that’s dissappointing to hear, because three way American shootout would have been AWESOME

given the slower speed, higher drag ratio and cross section of the bomb, PLUS those big honking stabilization fins, quite a lot actually.

wow, i didnt think id like the red tire as much as i do but damn if it doesnt work
