Weekends are when (most) motorsport races are run, ergo sum it makes sense to write about them as they go on. You have the entire working week for your inane articles about tail lights or what anthropomorphic hatchbacks would look like. Kindly allow us motorsport folk to enjoy the 2 days of decent content per week

Redacted because apparently I’m blind :)

I have a cross state drive tomorrow but will surely be listening to the NBC app while driving! Exciting times we live in (‘rona excluded). 

The super hot temps didn’t help, also keep in mind the fast9 order is reversed tomorrow. Pole today runs last tomorrow and vice versa. A lot of drivers didn’t want to be first today (Dixon actually said as much, he was lifting to make sure they were middle of the pack tomorrow and won’t have to run at the end of

This is a fan-goddamn-tastic thread, thanks for sharing!! Favorited so I can finish reading over time

I was thinking Josh Malina from the west wing (Will Bailey in that show, look it up if not seen). He’s DT’s doppelganger (well at least he was 15 years ago when that show was on).

Thank you for adding it sir! Awesome to have more folks aware of it and hopefully tune in and boost audience numbers! 

MotoGP used to be on bein sports but this year NBC picked it up. The opening round July 19 at the Jerez circuit will be shown at 3 p.m. ET on NBC and 8 p.m. ET on NBCSN. One can also get the video pass from their site which includes all races for maybe $150 or so?

Indycar at 2030 EDT tonight and tomorrow night (double header at Iowa) Brad (or Bradley if you don’t like Brad, sorry). There’s been some terrific racing in the series so far (even though Dixon has been dominant). Can watch on NBCSN or online with NBC Sports Gold (or with a cable provider login).

I love, love, LOVE that: 1) they make KO2s in that size and b) you’re running KO2s on it. Big ups from me friend.

1) Ad is already gone. B) “All” wheel drive? Weren’t these traditional 4x4 transfer case?

Sounds like a fantastic idea for a show. It would be like a tour. A large tour. No wait. What’s another way to say large? :)

I’m a software engineer and there are often times I’d like to be a roofer. “Oh you need this roof nailed on? Sure!”. Vs current status: “OK, I need nails. For that I need steel. I need to find the rocks that I can break up so I can melt them and make steel. Then I need to figure out the ratio of which rocks to make

Yep I hear you, was replying to another commentator my F800 won’t touch that 0-60 even though comparatively it is higher hp/lp of weight. Gearing etc will for sure have a lot to do with it 

Oh for sure m8, it’s faster than the clappers of hell. It’s faster than my F800 which is half the weight at most. Just surprised that it wasn’t 200+ hp and tq at that weight. 

I’m actually surprised by how low the hp and ftlbs numbers are. For a bike that big to move that fast, I was expecting more. Maybe the extra weight actually helps with traction on a 0-60 run? Quick edit after initial post: that torque number is really high compared to superbikes, so i suppose extra weight + more rear

Fix the cigarette lighter :) 

You can either pay for Superview which is the V8 Supercars proprietary streaming service or find a grey market stream on one of the streaming sites. It’s broadcast on fox in AUS and NZ but not stateside unfortunately :(

Out of curiosity looked at the drive there from home (Buffalo) and am just wondering: why is there no ferry across the lake?! Looks like it would cut maybe 100 miles out of the trip and give some respite; what gives?
