First lesson of NASCAR.. NASCAR is not a car.

Wrong: That NASCAR is fast.
Correct: That NASCAR car is fast.

@NASCARI live in Los Angeles and have turned my family ( of mostly basketball fans myself excluded ) into nascar fans , it all started with the Coca Cola 500 from last year it was on a Sunday and my dad was getting ready for church (11am )and he comes into my room to ask me what I’m watching I then tell him nascar as I explain it as a regular car going 500 miles an hour , then my little sister ask me the same question a few weeks later ( I was watching Darlington ) and I responded in kind and now ( for weirder or whackier ) they’ve become fans and I even turned my 80 year aunt into a fan

Pulling your own teeth is more entertaining than F1

technically for me not yet it needs improvement NASCAR’s benchmark is Indycar,IMSA,WEC

in terms there own youtube channel as a whole

But Full race Replay are the only thing what made the sport better than F1

honestly though; these past months have been kind of boring because it’s always verstappen winning every race

I’m glad to see something like this. I do hope they do something like this more. Let the casuals who don’t always watch it understand so they could

Where’s the Xfinity series and the Craftsman Truck series guys?,they’re important too.

it should be made clear that during the playoffs as we’re down to 16 drivers fighting for a championship, then 12, 8, then 4, the rest of the 36 car field is still on the track participating in the races trying to win. they’re just ineligible to advance through the playoff grid and compete for a championship at that point

“Huh, that ain’t racin’. That wasn’t even a Sunday drive. There was 1 lap racin’ as 500 of those. Everybody fightin’ to move up, lap after lap, inside, outside, inches apart, never touchin’. Now that’s racin’.” That’s what NASCAR used to be.

I’m English and watch all types of sports, including nascar since last season. And I really do not like the playoffs. I get the whole American playoff culture, but it should be plain and simple, top driver wins the championship. Because it then deems every other position irrelevant if they’re out the playoffs, and discourages fighting for every place when there’s nothing to fight for

Reply
TurboMarc September 1, 2023 at 10:25 pm

I, as an American, still barely understand the playoffs. A standard points system, like they used to have before 2004, is far easier to understand and more fair.

How many races are real races?? Not the turn left all day until you fall asleep kind of “racing”, but the real kind.

Reply

Oval racing is and always will be real racing too, and it’s much better once a person understands it. And many of the ovals Nascar races are astronomy better than many circuits (key word: _many._ NOT _all._ ).

You obviously don’t watch as the series races on road courses and street courses!! They literally had a race on the streets of Chicago this season. Plenty of right turns throughout the season, don’t expose your ignorance on the internet!

i really hope this video blows the hell up.

i’ve wanted you guys to take notes from f1’s videos explaining the sport and this is a great start.

coming from an 18-year fan, i want my fellow new peers to know what’s going on!
