Looks close to full now, I’m sure it’ll be full by the green flag. Takes a lot of butts to fill all them seats.

I'm not running them down at all because I will always watch the races, regardless of who is racing but the attendance is still way, way off from what it was in years past. Don't forget that it wasn't but 8 years ago that they removed 46K seats from the backstretch. There was a time when even with that, it was a sell out.

Yep. I believe it was Martinsville and darlington last year that they said were sell outs. I was at both races and there was plenty of seats left open.

Bubba just did a great job saving his car and not taking out the whole field. That 2 car bump draft pushed him into the wall while he was leading. Held his line well and saved the field.

I used to pay moderate attention to NASCAR but I haven’t kept up in the past 20 years.

What has happened that makes people pissed?? 🤷‍♂️

I’m not on any of social media crap. I just found out that Truex and Sherry split up. Not sure why but that kinda pisses me off.

Yeah, her cancer is under control but she hadnt been seen at the track since the middle of last season....they never married and had no children....

They really need to change the ruling at these super speedways. Bristol...yes, Richmond, absolutely but imo at Daytona and Talladega....absolutely dumbest rule ever.

There was a culture war - where NASCAR had a chance to stand up to its advertisers, but wouldn't have done so from a position of strength (after Dale died). The woke saw that opening.....gambled.....and won.

NASCAR caved.

THE END

I don’t understand the hate of the green whit checker. Not saying I’m a fan of it, but I just don’t understand when people don’t like that to finish a race. They used to finish races under a caution lap.

If you had the lead with 3 to go and they couldn’t get the track cleaned up in time, you won. The man in 2nd had no chance, atleast with the Green White Checker, he’s got a shot.
