11/17/2013 5:59:45 PM

It blew the entire wheel off, wow


That guy was lucky not to lose a leg

11/17/2013 6:04:49 PM

6 time champion

11/17/2013 6:28:05 PM

^ he is almost as good as david pearson now

11/18/2013 4:22:03 AM

he wouldn't be shit without Knauss

11/18/2013 6:12:27 AM

^ nascar is a team sport, that's kinda like saying walter payton would have sucked if he didnt have a good offensive line.

11/18/2013 7:40:10 AM

did someone say 6 time champion?

11/18/2013 7:45:52 AM

Barry Sanders never had a good offensive line.

Interesting concept except formula 1 is what the nfl would be if there was no salary cap. Its all about who has/spends the most money. Drivers don't win formula 1 races, cars win.

IDK how I missed this. But it made my night.

how do people think Dillon is actually going to do?

12/13/2013 6:18:12 PM

^would be surprised if he made the chase but not shocked

12/13/2013 6:26:49 PM

You think more of him than I do if you think he has a chance of making the Chase, I'd put Stenhouse ahead of him.

12/13/2013 6:35:12 PM

I'd be very, very surprised if he makes the chase.

2014 cup:

Quote :

" Instead of reducing horsepower, NASCAR will increase front downforce by increasing the size of the radiator pan from 38 inches-by-13 inches to 43-by-13. It will increase rear downforce with an 8-inch spoiler, which is bigger than the 7.25-inch spoiler used last year but smaller than the 9-inch spoiler used during portions of the test Wednesday. The top two inches of the spoiler will be made of Lexan, which is clear and allow for better visibility. NASCAR also will eliminate minimum front heights of the cars, which will alleviate teams manipulating shocks and springs just so they meet minimums in the tech bay only to be lower to the ground when actually racing. Teams also had relied on bump spots — pieces of rubber in the shocks — to help with the balance of the car to go faster in the turns. NASCAR also has changed the splitter from a rounded edge to a square edge, required the side skirts to be slightly lower (4-inch ground clearance instead 4.5 to 5 inches depending on the side of the car) and also adjusted the rear fascia to be 1.375 inches higher. The cars likely could go faster with this configuration, although NASCAR will adjust the gear rule to keep the cars at a maximum of 9300-9400 rpm. "We did play with downforce on the car, the amount, and we did play with the balance of front to rear," Stefanyshyn said. "For '15 we'll try some other things. … Now we will be having heavier springs in the front end, which will enable the teams to essentially be not running on the bump stops or having the whole vehicle totally loaded on the suspension system. We'll have some dampening between the mass of the body and the suspension which will give them more mechanical grip. "What this should translate into is a car which feels more stable and predictable. The drivers feel very good about the car. But they do indicate that sometimes when they get into heavy traffic, the car does get a bit unpredictable and less stable. So we're hoping that this will in fact provide the drivers with more confidence in these type of very, let's say, congested environments to drive harder and be willing to pass.""

sounds good to me but what do i know

12/17/2013 6:28:54 PM

Don't like the sideskirts or gear rule, and I think they should be doing things to make the cars slower in the middle of the corner. The increased df and theoretically reduced HP will only make it worse.

12/17/2013 7:36:49 PM

increased downforce and less horsepower = let's make Daytona and Talladega even worse!

12/17/2013 7:50:22 PM

they need to square the bodies off, fuck the aero all up, and put the big gas tanks back in the cars

in other words, go back to the 80s

Something Interesting:

According to http://www.jayski.com/teams/chase-history.htm#classic...if the points system had not been changed to the Chase...Jeff Gordon would have six championships and Jimmie Johnson would only have two.

Chad Knaus has done a very good job of basing that team's entire season around the last 10 races. The first 26 is just for them to make the top 12.
