Spike

Season one and two is good with the songs they played in each episode and the stunt driving. Season 4 got ridiculous, a lot of the over the top stunts you could tell were done with an RC car or model kit car. 

As I said in my introduction post (which you probably havent seen), I draw, and so I wanted to share my first drawings in this fandom. Both are digital The Bo one was a test piece, I was trying to figure out this mock watercolor brush I found about a month ago. And the Luke one I did for a friends birthday on the 6th.

You can buy episodes or seasons on Amazon prime, VUDU, or Apple TV+. But it would be far cheaper to pick up the complete series on DVD and get a good upscaling Blu-ray player that will convert the SD format to HD.

Idiots who shoot in the air give the Second Amendment a bad name. 

I hope you all had a great Christmas. I spent my Christmas/birthday in the ER. But I'm doing better. Wishes for a happy and healthy New Year for all of you.

Wasn't planning on it and was sleeping nicely till midnight then it sounded like a warzone outside from all the gunshots for 10+ minutes. Browsing the local subReddit and Ring Neighbors we weren't the only ones that heard all the gunshots. I was half expecting to find gunshot holes in our cars this morning from all the racket but luckily there wasn't. 
Happy New Year 

From Jayski's silly season site:
23XI is expanding to 3 teams and poached Riley Herbst away from Ford to drive the #35 Toyota Camry for 2025
Kaulig Racing is changing the #31 to #10 and put Ty Dillon in the seat.
Shane Van Gisbergen will drive the #88 Chevy for Trackhouse Racing
Justin Haley is moved over to Spire to drive the #7 Chevy
Josh Berry will take over the reigns of the Wood Bros #21 Ford Mustang 
Chase Briscoe will take over the #19 JGR Toyota Camry 
Michael McDowell is moving to Spire in the #71 Chevy
Todd Gilliland is moving to the #34 Ford Mustang.
Stewart Haas Racing shutdown and sold 3 charters, though 2 of them are in limbo with the 23XI and Front Row Racing lawsuit against NASCAR. Haas kept the final charter and will have Cole Custer drive #? Ford Mustang, it will be a RFK satellite team. 
RFK Motorsports bought the 3rd SHR charter and expanded to 3 teams with Ryan Preece in the #60 Ford Mustang. 
 
23XI and Front Row Racing won an injunction against NASCAR in the latest twist in the lawsuit. Next Court date is January 8th. For more info visit https://www.jayski.com/2024/12/23/teams-win-preliminary-injunction-in-lawsuit-against-nascar/
 
In other Motorsports news Honda and Nissan/Mitsubishi will be merging into one company. It isn't known how the 3 company's will continue however Honda will have controlling interest of the new company. I expect most of Honda's lineup to stay unchanged, Nissan will probably focus on Trucks and SUVs and possibly sports cars, Mitsubishi will probably be retired or remain as cheap compact car brand.

My girlfriend knew we would never go out on a date on a Friday night!  I still can't figure out why she left me. The last thing I heard her yell was something about priorities. 

Rough day today. The guy who crossed the center line and killed my daughter was formally charged with homicide by motor vehicle, involuntary manslaughter and 6 other traffic offenses. Sure stirs up bad memories of being at the accident scene and seeing the cars and hearing the bad news from the trooper. 

I agree. See there Hobie.....what Garrett is saying is that you need to give me the trophy for the Moonshine 400 back in 1982. That's the year you put those Mean Green Machine spikes on your rims and ran me off the road and into the swamp. Not a real win for you since you cheated. I'm on my way over there now to pick up my trophy and I'm bringing Garrett with me. 

Yeah it's well known Rusty Wallace did not like Jeff Gordon. He even tried getting Dale Earnhardt Sr to team up with him to wreck Jeff as many times as possible but Dale Sr obviously didn't agree with Rusty. Heck Dale even took Jeff under his wing a bit giving him advice over the years. Their "rivalry" helped make NASCAR huge in the mid to late 90's. If you haven't listened to them yet I recommend the Dale jr download podcasts with Jeff Gordon. 
What Austin Dillon did Sunday night was just poor sportsmanship. Then to lie about it on Dale Jr's weekly winner interview portion of his Tuesday podcast was just stupid, especially with the smt data proving he turned the car away more left to take out Denny Hamlin. "Um I didn't know he was there", BS you didn't you'd have to be blind not to see that car and if you are that blind than you need to get outta the driver's seat. I think if Bass Pro/Cabela's CEO wasn't there and one of his sponsored cars didn't win NASCAR would have dq'd Austin Dillon. He dumps millions into NASCAR and they probably didn't want to drive that money away.

Was waiting to post Richmond's results to see what NASCAR was going to do. Austin Dillon was on his way to a win in the final laps till Ricky Stenhouse and Ryan Preece ran out of talent and crashed into each other causing a caution. On the GWC restart Joey Logano got the lead and until turn 3 looked like he would win but Austin has other plans full sailing it into turn 3 hitting Joey Logano causing him to spin. Denny Hamlin was 3rd and thought he was going to win since Austin full sailed it and was way up the track but Austin had other plans again turning as far left as he could tappin the right rear of Denny's car sending him hard into the wall. Austin went on to win. Denny and most of the rest of the drivers called foul and forced NASCAR to finally put a line in the sand on what they will allow. NASCAR finally decided to allow Austin to keep the win but take all the points away and make him illegible for the playoffs. It's funny because Dale Earnhardt Jr said this would probably be the best outcome for everyone on his podcast yesterday. 
Top ten
1, Austin Dillon, encumbered win
2. Denny Hamlin 
3. Tyler Reddick 
4. Bubba Wallace 
5. Ross Chastain 
6. Christopher Bell
7. Kyle Larson 
8. Carson However
9. Chase Elliott
10. Daniel Suarez 
 
I personally think they should DQ Austin Dillon and take the win away but I guess this outcome is just as good as it does show everyone there is a line not to cross now.
