There's no point in me writing about it, I'm not into nascar and the writer at ESPN.com already did a fantastic article on it.
https://www.espn.com/racing/nascar/story/_/id/28824606/changing-tires-big-shifts-nascar-2021 pointing out that this will have a lot of side effects... even lug nut mascots will have to come to terms with this change, because a mascot based on a piece of hardware that no longer is in the sport? Doesn't make much sense.
Read that for a good piece of writing though... it's worth it.
Stock car racing AIN'T stock car racing anymore. It's all hype and $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ !
ReplyDeleteThat's why I pay so little attention to it. When they all drive the same car, and it's a race car, not a showroom dealership car... it's IROC, not stock car racing. Boring unless there's a crash
Deletethe current nascar is boring, a local dirt track race is way more fun to watch.
ReplyDeleteI also enjoy watching the old nascar races, from , say, before 1985, when the car bodies actually resembled the street version. thats why General Motors made the Monte Carlo Supersport. they wanted to use a more aerodynamic front end on the nascar monte carlo, and the rules required GM to make and sell at least 500 vehicles if they wanted to use it in races.
