NickHolt Posted February 9, 2020 Report Share Posted February 9, 2020 New rule: Have a mandatory "big one" every ten laps. Last car running is the winner. Just think of all the advertising opportunities with multiple-angle replays and endless interviews from the infield care center. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Budman Posted February 9, 2020 Report Share Posted February 9, 2020 (edited) Nah, will never work Nick. There is NOTHING and I genuinely mean that NOTHING is going to get these so called millennials and post-millennials up off their collective fat asses and out from behind their little ipad screens. It's ridiculous to go somewhere and see all these people living their lives entirely fixated on those little screens. What a sad state of affairs it truly is.

BeachBum Posted February 10, 2020 Report Share Posted February 10, 2020 I tried to watch it to the end, but finally gave up and went for a bike ride at the beach. I refuse to trade my fun in the sun ... for their ignorance behind the wheel. If NASCAR truly wants to fix their package, then stop allowing endless blocking from punks like Lagono and others. It kills the show and any continued interest from fans (new or old) I'm truly amazed they haven't figured that out yet? Until then, I'll stay focused on open wheel racing!

toyotatim Posted February 10, 2020 Report Share Posted February 10, 2020 It was exciting. Nothing different now than for the lat 40 years. Every race, everyone claims it the end. LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Budman Posted February 10, 2020 Report Share Posted February 10, 2020 (edited) BLOCKING???? IN NASCAR? No way BB! There is no blocking in Nascar. They are simply PROTECTING THEIR POSITION. Edited February 10, 2020 by Budman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeachBum Posted February 10, 2020 Report Share Posted February 10, 2020 No doubt. That's always their rational huh? I have an idea. Why not also allow paint guns in every car. That way, if blocking don't keep 'em behind, you can blind 'em! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know you said punks like Logano. I do remember someone by the name of Earnhardt who use to do the same thing many years ago. They all will block.

Josh42 Posted February 11, 2020 Report Share Posted February 11, 2020 Yes he blocked, they all were blocking or would have blocked. Where the problem is that no one has mentioned is why the he should of blocked and that it was totally pointless for him to do it. Yes you are racing and its part of the superspeedway game but Logano was a lap and half to two laps short on fuel. So why block when you are going to have to pit anyway. Even as much as they tried to save fuel they still hadn't saved enough. maybe a different story if he was on same pit sequence but he wasn't.

toyotatim Posted February 11, 2020 Report Share Posted February 11, 2020 Why not block, what was there to lose? Maybe someone else behind you wrecks and causes the caution first, if not, so what. If you dont drive like that, you will never win a race Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they are short on fuel they will still block because there's always the chance of a caution. Come in under caution and everyone will be packed up again.
