The world has crossed the line from political correctness into the realm of insanity. I could see if everybody was treated the same but they're not. I looked up Chief Seattle and found out he wiped entire tribes and was a slave owner of anybody who survived. I called my friend who moved to Seattle two months ago and he said Chief Seattle is revered there and his statue will never come down. Imagine that. There are people in this world who hate a historic car, the most recognizable car in history, yet love a slave owner. Insanity.

https://www.foxnews.com/auto/nascars-jimmie-johnson-negative-covid-19-tests Happy news! Jimmie Johnson has been cleared to race this weekend at Kentucky after two negative Covid tests this week.

Good for them!

Great news. The Dukes of Hazzard wouldn't be quite the same if the Duke boys weren't ahead of Rosco kicking dust on him. And NASCAR wouldn't be the same if Chase Elliott wasn't in front of Jimmie Johnson making him smell his exhaust.

Might have to retract that statement, Pin the Tail on the Dukes is pretty darn funny too . Hector about stole all the Dukes vehicles lol.

I think that's the best episode of season 4, definitely the funniest. Whoever casted the extras for this show made the right decision with Bob Hastings as the conman Quack doctor.

That many tire failures was more than just a fluke. Maybe a bad batch of tires or some teams cranking the camber and toe way past what Goodyear's recommended limit was. Denny's right front tire only had iirc 26 laps on it. The banking at Indy is only 9 degrees and that's only in the turns, so banking can't be an issue like it is at other tracks. I watched a stream before from a European streamer because the race was on FS1 so I had to find an online stream. It was very interesting to not hear the American commentators. I'm not sure who was doing the commentary but they at least were very knowledgeable about nascar.

Wasn't able to watch the whole thing. Just too late. Harvick won so I enjoyed that coming out of bed Monday morning though. Was amazed at the amount of tyre failures. That was more than anyone bargained for I bet. I have to say that I'm very surprised since really starting to watch nascar since late last year at the amount of tyre failures that actually come with oval racing. I heard its just the continued stress a tyre has to indure in the banks but I'm just surprised by this. If This would have happened as much in F1 the manufacturer would have changed the tyre structures 3 times already. I watched some races of the NASCAR Pro Invitational iRacing championship where I heard commentary from Mike joy and Jeff Gordon. This was before Everything revolving around BLM kicked off. It was very insightful commentary I must say. The only 'unprofessionalism' I guess that you'd call it which I found quite funny everytime is when Gordon was trying to communicate with someone who was driving and he couldn't 'get through' on the radio. Was cool to see North Wilkesboro on there! Usually we have Rick Winkelman doing commentary for us here in Dutch. Which is also very insightful. But there is no co-commentator, so there is no storytelling/jokes or what you'd call it between commentators which I slightly miss. It's is very funny though when you guys in the USA go to commercials. Cause we hear your intro and outro music as its the world feed NASCAR is sending out. But we have no commercials! It just cuts to random onboard cameras and static trackside cameras till You guys are back from the break and the music fades back in. It's almost as if the whole of the NASCAR production team goes on break everytime. Our commentator often uses this time to catch up on what happened and to answer twitter questions. Have had my questions answered a few times which was cool.
