This one goes out to my Aston Bros.
This one is for my Corvette bros. (Me.)
>>153381565At some point I want to get one of these and LS swap it. >>153382689I like it, but it has RR vibes and I really like the RR styling. That nose however... ditch the chrome outline, black that thing out.
>>153382882>At some point I want to get one of these and LS swap it.Nah, just make it a 914-6. It's more car than you'll know what to do with.
>>153382685I freaking wish.
For my Ford bros
Another sad drag racing story.If you know, you know.
>>153382981every pic of paul ricard before they turned it into a maze looks the track looks super dirty, almost like they reopened an abandoned track
>MFW
>>153383042Yes, I agree. It was better before they resurfaced it and gave it infinity runoff.
>>153382941I don't want to spend the money on a flat six. LS swap is dumb easy and cheap. I just need to come off some cars to make space. One day.
I miss TVR.
Name a more iconic pair.Ill wait.

WRC Rally Sweden schedule for this weekhttps://rallysweden.com/en/schedule/
Preecewinslol
>>153376342>Asian LMS>two of the three races are in the middle eastFuck I hate the current timeline.
Gonna go ahead and make my NASCAR prediction.>Playoffs1. William Byron2. Christopher Bell3. Tyler Reddick4. Chase Elliott5. Kyle Larson6. Denny Hamlin7. Ross Chastain8. Ryan Blaney9. Chase Briscoe10. Chris Buescher11. Bubba Wallace12. Joey Logano13. Shane Van Gisbergen 14. Brad Keselowski15. Alex Bowman16. Ty Gibbs*Overall I expect Chevy to get a bump, Toyota to decline a tad, and Ford will be the same old usual suspects (Blaney is their only champ contender imo)And my champ is gonna be Byron because he's the driver who best fits the new points system. Top tier equipment, and he's good everywhere. * - Wouldn't be surprised if like 14-19 goes down to the wire. There will be Spire cars, Preece, and possibly a Zilly wildcard, but none of those guys finish enough races or are competitive enough to be above the bubble.

>>153384546GTWC Asia has a similar problem. they had to make a separate Japan Cup because most Japanese race teams don't want to bother racing outside of Japan. and why should they? they have the best circuits in Asia, the best pro sports car series in Asia (Super GT) and the best pro-am sports car series in Asia (Super Taikyu). it will always be like this unless FIA/ACO/SRO figure out how to convince the Japanese to join.
>>153383891JLOC in name only. They were always Japanese drivers because it was a Japanese team. Now it's the Russian cuck giving money to anyone who will let him race under their banner.I always loved cheering for JLOC at Le Mans but fuck this shit.Again, I hate the current timeline.

>>153396076>Suicidal TendenciesClassic.>getting extremely fucked upI only do that when my buddies want to go see bands I don't really like e.g. Hate Bread. I usually only go to a handful of shows every year because there aren't really that many near me and they are getting expensive. Usually $50+. Fucking GWAR is $100 for general admission now and Dave is fucking dead. Those use to be $20 shows. Plus, if they aren't on weekends, I'm pretty screwed for work in the morning.The Corvette was my MLC, kinda. I was in Miatas for 15 years and I just kind of graduated, but whatever. I'm trying to go to more races now. This year I want to go to an NHRA race, IndyCar DC and Nashville, a NASCAR race, a local rally, a local dirt track (to see a guy from work run), the local drag strip, an IHRA short paved oval and, of course, Petit le Mans. I know a lot of that shit is expensive, too, but that is just the phase I'm in right now.

This thread is spiritually a spotscar racing, Indy, rally and NASCAR thread (please consult the archives) and newfags want to tear that down because they don't understand the difference disciplines of motorsport. F1 had to go when the quality and volume of posts hit a point where it deviated beyond the scope of genuine racing appreciation. I think we are seeing a lot of retarded newfags that don't understand that while NASCAR and IndyCar etc are different, they have more in common than they have differences.It's known as>The narcissism of pretty differencesIf you don't generally like motorsports fuck off from the motosports general and stop trying to tear a perfectly happy family apart.I would be extremely disappointed if this is the new NHRA frens trying to fuck up our happy home.

I love NASCAR, Indy, Sports car racing, and Supercunts
>>153397400>>153398417The entire point of my post is that infighting between series is detrimental to the prosperity of the racing community. It's literally Jewish communists tactics 101. We are even seeing play out ITT today.>Let the goyim fight while we trade futures, because we literally colluded to make up money rules. Wait what was I talking about?Anyways, NASCAR and IndyCar fans have a lot more to gain by working together than fighting eachother. The problem right now is that, NASCAR is so competitively compromised in the name of entertainment (catering to the urban youth market) that they are easily made to look foolish by IndyCar. The change to the Chase is a massive step in the right direction, for sure. The more people we get immediately comparing NASCAR to IndyCar the sooner we get fan bases damaging they each become better. Steel sharpens steel and all that. The best case scenario we can hope for is drivers trying to run open wheel, stock cars and sports cars all over the place to advance their carrears like back in the day.Racing car is racing cars and I want to see more and better at all times.

>>153398832At leat you are an organic faggot, I'll give you that much.
>>153398869I didn't call you a newfag, thats the other anonIm calling (you) a fag
>>153398865Kek, that's what I thought. Thank you for your contribution.Everyone will miss whitey when he is gone, even if they don't know it yet.Do you think there will be racing racing or air travel when everyone is brown? #wakandaforever

That feud between the IndyCar "fans" and the rest of the thread seems to be more of a coordinated move rather than a natural feeling towards motor/sp/ort. Most of the good anons that are present here enjoy every kind of good racing that is on the world, and it doesn't matter if it's sportscar, stock cars, rallying, hillclimb, drag racing, shitbox racing, formula racing, whatever-the-fuck-it-is racing, it really doesn't matter, even most of the /turnleft/ fans here enjoy watching IndyCar. We're all united here for the pleasing of enjoying races, having good frens that we trust on and just feel happy.That's what I see from all of this. We just need to follow that advice: >>153398856
>>153399074Yes, but actually yes, by maybe a little no.
>>153399138>A good man plants a tree whose shade he will never enjoy.I get that, I always try to leave any place I visit the same or better and I take care of my friends/family. I just mean I'm not going to lose sleep over demographic changes I couldn't possibly controlI've lived in Southern California my whole life, seeing brown people doesn't bother me and if it gets bad, Ill move to Utah/somewhere cold
>>153398962hamilton bros...
>>153399159he's a crasher. speed and nothing else. no racecraft.
>>153398806So you're the resident reddit expert? Way to oust yourself bitch. By all means, please go back there fucking faggot and quit splitting the general.
The tour-type modified John Blewett III Memorial 76 headlines tonight's racing for night 6 of the World Series of Asphalt at New Smyrna.Tim has it.
I will never like NASCAR or F1. they actively leverage their popularity to undermine every other motorsport. you guys telling me to just like everything and be comfy can fuck off.
I think this anon has a serious case of main character syndrome
>>153399362nah that would be Max Verstappen, who got NLS to rearrange their entire schedule just for him.

>>153399153>We're all united here for the pleasing of enjoying races, having good frens that we trust on and just feel happy. Based. Sp based.This is all I ever wanted and I'm glad we are here together today.>We just need to follow that advice: >>153398856I made that image to commemorate a moment in time where we were all frens. My only regret is that I couldn't include everyone who makes this place what it is.I can't find the original post, but a few years ago I was chatting with an anon and he said something I felt very deeply:>I see a vroom, I watch a vroomand that is basically my philosophy. Hell, I watch races I'm pretty confident aren't going to be good because you never know when something amazing might unfold on track. I mean, a double play on little league is just as good in little league as in MLB. Maybe more so, because you're not expecting it.>I have seen things you people wouldn't believe. (Or maybe you were even here for.)>F1 cars on fire through the barricade.>I've watched South American shitboxes in three way battles for the win that put top tier races to shame.>Drag races where the top contender jumps the tree.>NASCAR champions run out of fule on the final restart. >All thise moments will be lost on time like tears on rain if we don't keep this ship together.I just want things to be comfy and I know most of you do, too.Remember to post start reminders and links.
Some partial viewer numbers for the Cook Out Clash:>8:00 PM (FOX) 2.246m viewers>8:30 PM (FOX) 2.451m viewers>9:00 PM (FS2) 499k viewersFOX should have stayed with the race, The Masked Singer was only able to draw 1.7m viewers afterwards.
>>153399416as I said, F1 leveraging their popularity to undermine other motorsport (many such cases)
>>153399392easy money right there
>>153399426Thats good to hear, both Fox and NBC take nascar for granted and really ought to lose it for a TV deal cycle. Its ridiculous how few races are on the networks this year.
>>153399314I know what's black because it isn't what, not because I'm black, too.Please stop trying to ruin a good thing because you're personally miserable.
>>153399353F1 is gay faggot retard shit and NASCAR is broken a corrupt as hell but it's still better than dive grass or hand egg or monkey dunk.I criticize my family because I want them to be better. Not because I want to destroy them.
>>153399419>>NASCAR champions run out of fuel on the final restart.
>>153399353WHO is telling (You) that you have to like everything?? I've seen no car salesman-type faggotry here. What I see is people on an imageboard posting racing related pics and discussing what they personally enjoy. You don’t have to like NASCAR or F1. Nobody is forcing you to. But people sharing what they’re into isn’t some grand effort to undermine other motorsports. If it’s not your thing, that’s fine just let others enjoy what they enjoy and move on.>>153399454I'm not ruining anything, I love all the vrooms. I very much dislike the split happening here.
>ARCA@Daytona>12 hours at Bathurst>Cup series@DaytonaI may die of alcohol poisoning and snack overdose on Sunday
>>153399416>Max is such a main character Toto ficking Wolf is sucking his cock and moving planets for him.That's pretty insane TBdesune-chan snepi.Man, you will never have to ask that guy what his biggest regret in life was. Kek
>>153399523I misread the schedule, this is happening on Saturday which is even better because I have Sunday off to recover
>>153399524It makes sense, Toto is fond of the 24h race as well seeing that he won it in the 2000s.
Now I'm posting Nurburgring
>>153399392Well, first of all, I'm glad you're safe.Second, did you render aid, or were you off the clock? (Please put me in the recovery position if you find me passed out at the track.)>>153399404Kek>>153399447Man, I had a private flat bed operator on speed dial for while and we helped eachother out a lot, but he gave up the game. I've thought about getting my own rig a few times since then.
>>153399598i'm off duty bruh, i still felt obliged to see if he was okay
>>153383110Porsche flat 6 is simpler than an LS.
so is FS1 gonna cut away from the basketball game for qualifying or relegate quali to FSapp?
>>153385310>huge Kyle Petty fan as a kid because of this car, always pick number 44 in racing games because of it>now everybody thinks I'm a L*wis Hamilton fan
>>153399483Precisely. I used to think it was cool and fun to dislike things, NASCAR definitely included. I have since learned that it's more fun to like things and you guys helped me understand how much fun NASCAR is with those comfy threads. The best part is that it's on 33/52 weekends a year plus there are multiple races within driving distance to me. It might not ever be my tip top favorite and I might find reason to criticize the management, but I'm glad they are out there running fat nasty V8 engines on ovals. I mean, who else is doing that these days?
>The Acez chat right nowJesus Christ lmao, it's like a live feed of /pol/
>>153399701isn't it always like that?
>>153399724theres basketball on so its turned up to 11
Who else here fucks with kid rock I am 20 and I love kid rock and his music one of my favorite musicians ever along with juicewrld
>>153398116the context of that image is sometime in the early 1950s. at the time, Indycars were at sub 140mph pole speeds. the first Daytona 500 had a pole speed of 140, and it only climbed from there. Daytona pole speeds were consistently faster than Indy until the 1970s when Indy brought in the turbos and downforce.
>>153399426Good stats, anon.Any idea how this compares to normal Sunday/Wednesday viewership?I can't imagine the opening NASCAR event of the season wouldn't outperform whatever goyslop they normally have scheduled on Wednesday, but I did get an A in collwge statistics and probability, so I'm something of a statistician myself. I also understand buisnessfags enough to know they are extremely easily mislead, so let's hope the guy who made the PowerPoint is our guy.
>>153399701does it offend you?
>>153399673FS2
>>153399782no, sorry to disappoint you
>>153399692>just like thingsis a midwit take. it is perfectly acceptable to dislike things if you think they are bad. and NASCAR factually has been bad for a long time. poorly managed combined with changes in American culture have made it an inferior product to what it was even 20 years ago, let alone 30+ years ago.
>>153399484>I love all the vrooms. Then you are my brother and I apologize. I just want everything to be comfy again. We are about to kick the 2026 season into high hear and everyone infighting and I hate it.

That leads all Indy talk in future generals up to not only Indy fans, but Indy fans willing to share. >will they continue to shareThere is sharing, and then farming (((yous))). The moment it feels like a (((you))) farm I personally disengage, and can assume others do the same, I engage to discuss (right or wrong) and have as much of a free flowing conversation as possible even if its a slow thread. its the internet, and not some reddit fag shit (if you want to label it that, go ahead and ignore it lol)>Not everyone wants to talk Indy MATH: 467/55= roughly 8.5>That Indy general wouldve been spread through 8.5 general threadsI understand a lot of hate towards it, but some guys are cool with all Indy slow burn, and kept the Indy talk alive, even if its for three people. No need to pity bump it, just let it die if you dont like it.
>>153399607I'm workplace first responder trained, so I know how to used the AED, do CPR and rescue breathing, but one time I saw an unseatbelted Mexican get ejected from a vehicle in a rollover so I stopped but I could tell by the wet aound of his breathing and his unequally dilated pupils that I would probably do more harm than good of I touched him, so I just called 911.It wasn't the first time I was first on scene to a potential fatal accident, but thankfully it was the last. I guess you get hardened to it, but thanks all the same for taking care of us.Also, thoughs on seat belts?My general impression is that they are very helpful in the low to moderate accidents, but it's kind of random with the more serious accidents.
>>153399701Reminds me of that time an anon said they sent their parents a link to acez to watch NASCAR, kek.
>>153399860Accurate grass design too? This is a level beyond based.
>>153399993haha, I've sent my dad to DD12 but not acezHes a FOX news boomer now so I dont think it would bother him too much anyways
>fastest qualifying lap in the history of the gen 7 carTranslation: only missing the 1998 field by 0.9s
>>153399636All I'm asking for is a 3.5 hour race with a last lap battle for the win ending in smol Juan. Is that too much to ask.
Indy and /turnleft/ have more than enough interest for bangin race threads but not so much for generalsOnly F1 and Rally sometimes have enough autism to sustain a general
Amigo bringing his mexican sponsors along
>>153400042F1 has year round generals, even in the off season. the WRC generals get bumped off the 'logue even during race weekends.
>>153399778I'm sorry to tell you that the usual goyslop that is scheduled on Wednesday does outperform NASCAR. FOX was also dead last among the big four broadcasters, but they led in the persons 12-34 and male 12-17 demographics which is probably still the most coveted target group for advertisers and broadcasters.
>>153399989>ejection>unequally dilated pupilsyeah bro had a spinal injury/subcranial bleed, medflight to Level 1 trauma center immediatelyseat belts 100% will save your life, i had a crash where the guy was going maybe 20 mph but it was enough to flip the car and eject him enough to pin and crush him under the A pillar but there comes a point they can only do so much and other factors come in at high speeds

>dont want the drivers taking hand off steering wheelthis sport is so fucking dead. these cars sound like shit, and trying to enjoy it? they just penalized a guy for bending air with his hand. Thats how shit the car is, they banned a hand out the A pillar because that has more impact than springs lmaooooo
>>153399860They get better with every post.
>>153399860Nice detail.>>153400021Good eye.

Id love for NASCAR to put a car in the tunnel with a FORD/CHEVY/TOYOTA and show the advantage to the fans. If this advantage is so huge, why has it suddenly changed? Make the cars closed cockpits then. >DONT CHEAT>BUT CHEAT THE RIGHT WAY
Look at that Stenhouse boy in the Chef Boyardee car
>>153400152something extremely phony about a guy being a fan of a driver who died when he was like two years old
damn that 78also the camaro front got a slight update right? its looks better for sure
>>153399921They are often late in adding smaller races. Give it a minute and maybe install a VPN. I'll post anything I can come up with. I have a cabel TV streaming service I can share as a last resort for ARCA.I'm pretty sure Bathurst will be free on GT World on YT.Dony worry, we'll get you hooked up. We won't let a bro go without a stream. That's just unthinkable.

Welp
>>153400433he's the same age as me, and I only have the vaguest of memories of him. Kids generally don't get a 'hero' until they're older than that.

Damn Briscoe
>>153400511>Kids generally don't get a 'hero' until they're older than that.Did you grow up in NC around only NASCAR, and shops? Going to sound weird anon, but not everyone grows up the same as you, and can retain memories different than you.
>>153400031wanna make it sound worse? with the exception of bill elliott in '01, ramo scott in '76 and aj foyt in '71, every single pole since 1968 has been faster
>>153400152He's good for the sport, kind of unfortunately. >>153400263So, I'm a fan of Juan Manuel Fangio.Remember how he was a TC champ and got kidnapped in Cuba and reverse Patty Herst syndromed his captors?

>>153400263Dale died before I have memories, but my dad was (and is) a huge fan, and I've watched several documentaries and old races and come to the conclusion that, had I been able to remember him as a driver, I would have been too.Dunno if Cleetus is in the same boat, or if it's just part of his larp.
>>153400263>>153400380>>153401638He is an actor and it is part of the character he is trying to portray, the reality of it doesn't matter. I'm sure he is a decent dude as it would be difficult to build a group like that and keep them around, even if I can't personally relate to his online persona or enjoy his videos.

>>153406221>https://www.motorsport.com/f1/news/toto-wolff-reveals-mercedes-amg-influence-on-nls-date-switch-to-open-door-for-max-verstappen/10796984/>Toto Wolff has confirmed that it was Mercedes-AMG that pushed to change the dates of the preparation races for the Nürburgring 24 Hours to accommodate Max Verstappen due to the influence the four-time Formula 1 champion has on the series' viewership.>"I don't know the figures I heard, I can't remember them, but between a normal NLS round, we have 100 times more spectators on YouTube with Max participating than otherwise. You know the numbers? It was like 10,000 to 750,000 or something crazy, you need to read it up.>"So it's a no-brainer to change it, and I think it's great for the 24 hours, for the fans to have Max there, and obviously driving a Mercedes is something we enjoy."max doing the n24 will kill the series and in 5 years the whole nordschleife will be demolished, fagmula 1 wins again
renault group is imploding, alpine lmdh is next >>153405751no but it's going to be designed by the same guys who came up with the current detroit track so it's guaranteed to be a shitshow
>>153407214hey that didn't take longhttps://www.dailysportscar.com/2026/02/12/alpine-confirms-hypercar-withdrawal.html
>>153403445why are the rozzers chasing them?
>>153407214>>153407365The Dacia exit was obvious, W2RC is another championship with only one important and a bunch of filler events, it was predictable they will pull an audiI dont think renault group will go long without motorsport involvement, they might come back to wrc
>>153407481new ceo is a beancounter faggot who hates racing, zero chance of a wrc program
>>153407797beancounters are the natural enemy of fun.
>>153407797however with no factory w2rc program the chance of prodrive building a wrc27 car increases
Fucking NASCAR renamed the Weekly Series track sanctioning program to the Local Racing Series
>>153409796don't worry, everyone will still call it weekly series like people still call oaps the busch series
Throwback to Danny Bagwell flipping at Daytona
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=slvC-pvyChoIt's LIVE for the first practice
>already first puncture
>>153416107seems like they're having issues with the broadcast, gtworld isn't even streaming atm
>>153416538Yeah, but personally I enjoy the no comm, engine sound only stream.Well now they fixed it.
>>153416536that's a bad omen
shame they didn't stream the ferrari practice and sedan qualifier
>>153416648Yeah, especially the>sedan qualifierI love Australian domestic series. They have really great technical rules that allow all kinds of cool cars.
>>153407797Beancounters live to get replaced. They will be gone for now but they might return in the future, maybe after the Alpine experiment ends they will return as Renault. Still sad about the WEC car ending, it was a fun midpack car to root for.
Truck practice is underway on FS1. Tony is back on track for the first time in almost 10 years.
This intro thohttps://x.com/i/status/2022072130800914561
god damn everyone wants to drive those trucks at St Pete
Best livery of this weekendhttps://youtu.be/LU8j2S_I81E

Bathurst weekend
The numbers on the Kaulig trucks are too far forward
I just realized how stacked this weekend is gonna be.WRC, Bathurst and Daytona 500 back-to-back.
>>153417043>soon
ngl already kinda tired of seeing promos for this new Dale doc that i dont know anybody wanted.
>>153417217Oh yeah, that's today. I might watch it out of curiosity.
supra v8 on track based af
>>153417217The only person I'm interested in hearing from at this point is Teresa......and she aint never talking
>>153417239the sounds are amazing
>>153417043Easy top 10, probably top 5 tracks in the world.
>>153417239It really is.
Looks very comfy here
>>153417138Yeah, it's a good time to be a general motorsports enthusiast.
>>153417343It's always comfy on Mount Panama.
Ferrari challenge practice 2 starting in a bit
/Turnleft/>Duels at Daytona edition>>153394091>>153394091>>153394091
>>153417566it's a go
>>153417606Why has there never been a Corvette single make series? It's easily the most affordable top tier sports car.
>>153406300Max who?N24 will outlive that faggot.
actual /turnleft/>>153417643
>>153417640guess it's just a lack of interesteven this Ferrari one at Bathurst only has 14 racers participating, which isn't that much
>>153417728You down with the turnleft? I know it seems boring, but once you realize how subtle and difficult oval racing is, you will see with new eyes. Honestly, it's easy to see in IndyCar, but if they can stop crashing for 5 minutes, you can see it in NASCAR, too.
Bronze driver practice at Bathurst coming up now.
>>153417691>Trains
>>153417810I've been getting into it the past few months, and I plan for the 2026 season to be my first one that I follow more closely
Night 7 of the World Series of Asphalt at New Smyrna is headlined by a 100-lapper for the pro late models. It was probably be really shit and take forever, but at least there will be tour-type modifieds once again later tonight.
>>153417847it's on

>So the crocodile's wearing a koala!>What?jej
>>153417939>We bet on gay retard faggot globohomo technology that everyone knew was dumb as fuck, so we are focusing on a gay retard faggot globohomo series that everyone knows is dumb as fuck.Perfect, well done.
>>153418113Croc sus desu
Huh, apparently the first Combined Sedans qualifying race had an accident, with one of the drivers having to be taken to a hospitalIf only they streamed that race
also, second Combined Sedans qualifying race started now
this one's a beaut
>>153418322Keith Kassulke again! He already had a massive crash here in 2023
we got a smoker
What a beautiful Gallardo
>>153418799every year
>>153418799did that just happen...?
>>153418799Poor guy, I hope he's alright.
>love me racecars>love me /motorsport/>simple as
>>153418799NOT comfyBesides this, how is the practice session going?
>>153418799I'm going to hell for how hard I laughed at this...
Holy FUCK do I need a 1:18 model of the WRT art car. It looks fucking insane
>>153418374
>>153420544the original looks much better and it has IXO and Minichamp releaseshttps://kendone.com.au/news.php?s=art-car&
>>153425290the 99 days till the wiener 500 what matters
>>153425392It probably would suit the boxy new M2 a lot better but it's still cool seeing Ken Done's design back. Hope they continue to do this for more races, I'd like to see the Jeff Koons M3 design at Le Mans again
>>153425392looks like a bus seat from the 90s kek
>>153418799>I'll just run out on to this black surface where the load noises comes fromWe've had cars for over a hundred years now, if nature still hasn't caught on to what it is it deserves to get killed off.
>>153425475that was so dope
>>153426079>>153426100Roos are dumb as fuck anon. >namefag deletes post, removes name, reposts with all the same grammar errorsheh
>>153418799FUCKING KANGAROOShttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7_HAFsPooR4
>>153418799Hope Skippy's fine
We are so back
>>153425475I maintain the E92 M3 GT2 is the best looking racecar of all time.Current Mustang is good competition though.

ARCA qualifying resultsTop 32 are in on speedPoints provisionals (my calculation, not official):RazPompaConsentinoMaplesVan AlstNicolopoulosKogaClubb
>>153429589Damn never thought someone other than me would try to figure this out. I gave up before even attempting.
>>153429783Well I know I didn't get it right though since Jason Kitzmiller isn't on the chart after they disallowed his qualifying time. But he should be in over someone.
>>153429589Im okay with being called cringe but 40 cars for an arca race is way too much.
>>153430362Cringe. What ARCA should do is allow all entries to start but enforce a minimum lap time so the shitboxes can start and park without affecting qualifying or the race.
>"touched on a little bit"what did jamie mean by this saying that to michael?
Truck qualifying starting on FS1
Think im going to order Chinese for dinner with the truggs race. Should i get beef or pork fried rice.(Will be with one shrimp egg roll)
its funny seeing all the problems F1 is having nowadaws, because they are the same we had in Stock Car last year lel
Daniel Dye SLOWER than Tony Stewart after a 10-year absence
is the car an athlete?
>>153430790I'd say the 25 is more trimmed out because it has no owner points while the other four Kaulig trucks do, but the bullshit free Kaulig starting spots rule exists.
Smoke's almost a tenth off from the 9th fastest truck from last year's qualifying, not bad for being retired for a decade and 20 years removed from racing a truck.
>Jake Bollman DQ'd
Combined Saloons at Bathurst just starting
>>153430584>Should i get beef or pork fried riceCan you get "combination?" Most places will do prok, chicken and beef or any two of the three. If not, I say pork. >one shrimp egg rollBased. I live that stuff so much. Enjoy.
>>153430714I actually haven't bothered watching any of the testing. I think the last F1 thing I watched was Singapore. It's so intensely mid, it's unreal.
>>153431175Based, thanks for the heads up.
I think it's safe to say at this point that Breidinger will DNQ
>>153431288It was all over when she couldn't outspeed Norm Benning, age 74, in his truck that caught fire last year.
>>153431175>Combined Saloons>95% Porsche 911
>>153431175absolutely based that the racing starts at 7:30am at Bathurst
>>153430473It's ARCA.Someone would manage to be slow enough to get lapped before they even complete enough laps to get the black flag.
>>153431346Main character's car
>>153431336Is an 911 an saloon?
>NASCAR engined Saabbased
Cleetus is fast
>>153428071Knowledge is knowing how good the E46 GTR was, wisdom is knowing the E92 GTR was even better
>>153431442It technically has 4 seats, but it is 100% spiritually a sports car.Now yhe VB Mustang, THAT'S what I want to see when I'm watching Saloon Cars. What class is that. I remember them running alongside the GT3 car up until a few years ago.
>>153431491Man, I love Australian racing.
>>153431514Pastrana too... How is he faster than all the regular drivers? Kinda embarrassing.

I fell asleep between races last night, but I just caught the highlights for the second race and it was pretty good. Reddick was driving like he was literally insane and I was glad to see that NAPA Chevrolet come across the line first. BAMF in second is pretty cool, too.
>>153433174Are those moon runes on that rear bumper a message to that Initial D merc?
>>153433720embarrassing
>>153434022For both of them.
