@98 DogeCoin Car they didn’t choose the 24&48 randomly. It’s retaliation for HMS getting points back

I guess it’s true that NASCAR is desperate enough for attention but penalizing one of the big teams isn’t the way to go.

@Cole Murray it is the way to go. The only people that love Hendrick team are geriatrics and do nothing for the sport. 23XI and Trackhouse racing carry a vibe and potential to bring in new crowds and new popularity. Chastain gives the drama, if he actually had a personality like Harvick or Stewart did in their prime the sport would be a lot better

Between the officiating on and off track, the craziness of the appeals panel, and the new tv deal, David Land might be onto something with the split coming

There is gunna be no “split” happening, if the owners decide to leave NASCAR then NASCAR will go by the wayside and whatever er the new series is called will be it, there will not be two major stock car racing series in America guaranteed

@DIY Chad 726If the big owners leave, they will take the big money drivers. I don’t know if Tony would run it, probably be Penske, Hendrick, and Gibbs running it maybe.

David Land wishes for a split so Indycar can overtake NASCAR (which will never happen lmao)

Cole Murray April 6, 2023 at 11:19 pm

Yeah, NASCAR needs to realize that the business model and the sport’s direction isn’t working. Jim France needs to get off of his damn rocker and start getting more involved. You may not like Brian but at least he was involved with everything.

Even when Byron has a good pit crew and luck for once in his career he gets slammed by penalties when he’s the top guy in the garage right now

agreed, Byron has been so neglected for years and now when he is coming full force I hope he gets his respect for championship-calibre skill.

Nascar needs to show the infractions. There is an approved modification listed for that part. Show the world what HMS did that was outside of those specs.

Exactly after the appeal is heard they need to publicly tell fans what they found!!!

​@HHM567they didn’t even put wipers on. If the ran the wet weather package they should of qualified at Richmond on a wet track! Wtf is the point of a wet weather package your never using.

What will be interesting is whether the appeal will be based on the appeals rule at the time of the infraction (Sunday) or the day the rule was changed (today, maybe yesterday). That could determine whether the appeals board has the authority to remove the points or not. Regardless, between NASCAR “randomly” choosing these cars for R&D and announcing the penalties later in the week than usual, after changing the appeals rules, this looks like retaliation -without regard for how they’re manipulating the driver and owner standings, and by extension the outcome of the season. I don’t think, months down the road, this will reflect well on NASCAR. this is going to be a topic of conversation in every playoff race, especially the transfer races.

Scott Bledsoe April 6, 2023 at 10:30 pm

Clear retaliation, a complete lack of transparency, when nascar doesn’t get their way they just change the rules on the fly, a clear lack of negotiation on nascar with team owners on media deal……. #WatchingNascarDestroyNascar

It depends if HMS broke the rules, which this looks like a clear cut violation.

At some point the money guys are going to stop, and the money will dry up. It’s not a good time when the regular public is having a hard enough time with inflation, now poiltics is coming into play in our entertainment too. SMH please let’s just stop and race. Or at the end of the day the sponsors will dry up and the money will go away. Not that our money is worth much.

Reply
TheSeanie April 7, 2023 at 2:21 am

the appeal would be based on the old rules, so it can get completely wiped out by an appeals panel even if they find them guilty

Reply
Ken Hull April 6, 2023 at 10:26 pm

In the old days, when something was found to be wrong or illegal, it was put on display so all of the teams or anyone walking by could see what NASCAR confiscated. It will be interesting to see/hear what the greenhouse violation was. It seems rather odd that NASCAR would pull two cars from the same team too. Weren’t the 5 and 9 inspected at the track? Did they see something on them that smelled bad? To me, not a good look for NASCAR. Has all the earmarks of a witchhunt.

I am about done with Nascar, I have been a fan for the last 30 years but it looks to me that they can’t stand to have their feelings hurt and are on a witch hunt. This stinks.

Darrell Gossett April 7, 2023 at 2:47 am

I think Denny has learned the value in “You have the right to remain silent…..”. The selection of the 24 & 48 teams, & the penalties that follows smells like straight out revenge for not winning the appeals, in whole, on the previous penalties/fines or maybe because of the boycott of the meeting with NASCAR over the future deals. As a NASCAR fan since 1979, I would kinda like to get back to driver rivalries, not NASCAR vs. owner rivalries.

Harvey Wallbanger Racing April 7, 2023 at 12:59 pm

Love how NASCAR can and does change the rules anytime someone finds that hole in the rule. This is only done so NASCAR can not get that sheet pulled over their head again. This is the same thing that Steve was talking about last night on HUB. The same thing happened with Hendrick and NASCAR to the point that Kaulig now gets both points and a fine while Hendrick only got a fine with all of their points back.

I think we knew the minute 2 HMS cars were “randomly” selected that there was going to be a penalty to both cars. Really seems like Nascar was after them from an outside perspective
