Even my weakness for the Nordschleife can't help me

The Porsche transmission is really loud huh

[naive smelt]

its not about you and if you're watching or not, it's about the dedicated space to talk about it. Which is not here

[dusty rampart]

@unkempt mirage Well I guess the F1 delay means you can watch more of the N24

[unkempt mirage]

Exactly what i’m doing

[dusty rampart]

Si

[unkempt mirage]

But i do need my therapist now

[dusty rampart]

Well the front running porsche crashed

[unkempt mirage]

Both races are getting a bit boring now tbh

[dusty rampart]

well f1 isnt even a race

[unkempt mirage]

Yeah i know

[dusty rampart]

its watching asphalt dry

[tacit garden]

What it's doing? Its best

[unkempt mirage]

156 laps

[dusty rampart]

DACIA 99TH

[tacit garden]

As long as your car fits into a class, your drivers have the necessary permit, and you qualify, you're good

Remember until last year there was a super old Opel Manta participating

Equally without chance to win anything. But it was fun!

[unkempt mirage]

Until a fire happened

[dusty rampart]

4 pit in

[unkempt mirage]

It's about the journey

[tacit garden]

Yeah this year was meant to be its last 24h

[unkempt mirage]

Sad

[mild magnet]

If you have a car which comply with some of the +20 classes and a crew with a minimum amount of racing time required at Nlrdschleife, you're in

[dusty rampart]

monaco hold off until 8 minutes past the hour pls so I can watch the final lap

watch Dacia cross the line in 99th out of 135

[unkempt mirage]

based

[dusty rampart]

Well a lap is 8 and a half minutes and the Audi is in Pflanzgarten

So this is probably the 3rd to last lap

Actually it's gonna be really close...

[calm bay]

10 min left

wooo

[dusty rampart]

Crosses the line, 9:45

This is the Penultimate lap

[mild magnet]

car 15 under investigation

[tight quiver]

OH

[mild magnet]

🗿

[dusty rampart]

bruh please dont give them a fucking time penalty

i dont want to see them lose the lead to dumb shit

thats not fair

[blazing sand]

under investigation because of pit stop, maybe to short

[unkempt mirage]

Cheating out on pitstop is not fair either

[blazing sand]

and car 3 is only 55 seconds behind, so its close with a penalty

[dusty rampart]

notice i said dumb shit

[unkempt mirage]

yes

rules are rules

[dusty rampart]

a short stop is not dumb shit thats cheating

dumb shit is 62 kmh in a 60

[blazing sand]

i know the reason, let me translate it into english

[unkempt mirage]

do that

[blazing sand]

Okay, it is being investigated because the engine was turned on while the car was still being fueled and that is not allowed

[unkempt mirage]

Ahh

[blazing sand]

and there is no clear penalty for that, so its not that you get 1 minute for example for that

[mild magnet]

Traffic rider momento

PSA CEO's Astra

[calm bay]

so any news on monaco?

[mild magnet]

Still delayed

[calm bay]

bruh

[mild magnet]

None restarting time defined atm

[dusty rampart]

its not raining very hard anymore though

[blazing sand]

no default penalty for that, engine was on while fueled and then it was turned off again, no sporting advantage, should result in a fine for the team, not in a time penalty

[unkempt mirage]

I hear the engine

Busted

[dusty rampart]

yeah that sounds like a fine thing

[unkempt mirage]

Yeah true

Stupid mistake tbh

[blazing sand]

yeah because its no sporting advantage, not allowed but a time penalty would not be correct

[mild magnet]

Yup

[unkempt mirage]

NUMBERS

[dusty rampart]

thats incredible

I wonder how many people watched the streams

[unkempt mirage]

Thousands

There were around 4k people watching the Grello onboard at one point

[unkempt mirage]

Michael was just like: Fuck this, i’m off to Monaco

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KRDz4yHGYzA

[tight quiver]

already

well i guess it makes sense

since they kept pumping out them every 2h

[unkempt mirage]

they had them pretty much ready to go

[dusty rampart]

14 minutes

14 fucking minutes

You wanna know how long the 24h Le Mans highlights from WEC will be?

Maybe 6 or 7

[tardy charm]

Anyone watching indy 500?

[unkempt mirage]

The ADAC TV crew are fucking legendary tbh

3 different feeds and making them work perfectly at the same time in a livestream is something FOM can learn from

[sterile helm]

anyone have any advice for getting cheap karts

i really want to get into it

but if i’m being completely honest i can’t afford 4k plus for a decent kart

is there a better way to get into racing

i already do that

shoukd i just start trying to compete in higher leagues

and get some sponsors

because i would like to race real cars

ofc not

just trying to get into it lmao

yeah and i live in wisconsin lmao

not a lot of options

[unkempt mirage]

This respect is why i love GT3 racing

[tight quiver]

Laurnes is very honest

he crashed in Daytona 24h and had a very similar message

[unkempt mirage]

It’s nice to see tbh, shows his professionalism

[tight quiver]

it was the smallest of touches too

so its really unfortunate

[unkempt mirage]

The small tap just unsettled Grello and that was that

[unkempt mirage]

These fireworks though 😍

Get up extra early and you could catch the end

[lavish shard]

yo boys

slight question

why do i have to pay an additional subscription to watch nascar on peacock?

i already pay $10 a month for this

[tight quiver]

I think its because it's on fox now

[lavish shard]

that is so dumb

how much is the sub to fox

oh they stream it on hulu+

okay I have that

nevermind then

[lethal yacht]

[gleaming totem]

And heck Coca Cola sponsors the race, a very American drink as well

[gleaming totem]

Ken Squier maybe

[celest saffron]

gotta be more specific lol

[lavish shard]

he reminds me of that one redneck dad that lives next door to me

[lavish shard]

WELL

old man is about as specific I can get

old man with no hairline a better description?

[solar narwhal]

haven't watched a NASCAR race since this year's Daytona 500

let's fucking goooooo

[celest saffron]

Larry McReynolds. one of Earnhardts old crew chiefs

[autumn briar]

[tepid elbow]

I miss Ken Squier

[lavish shard]

i bet that guy watches a lot of football too

he looks like the type of guy to watch footbal

[gleaming totem]

He's still around but retired since 2000 I beilieve

[celest saffron]

he is from Alabama so yes

[tepid elbow]

Ahh

[gleaming totem]

🟩

Green flag and were underway

[lavish shard]

yall are a little bit ahead of me

im still at this bit

[celest saffron]

lap 2 riiight now

[lavish shard]

400 laps?

[obtuse plover]

is charlotte a restrictor plate track?

[lavish shard]

jeez i never knew they get this long

[celest saffron]

no, just Daytona, Dega, and now the renovated Atlanta

[obtuse plover]

ah alr

[gleaming totem]

You sure about that, cause it feels like the Chevy's and Ford's have plates while the Toyota's don't

Kyle Busch to the lead

[lavish shard]

what lap are you guys on?

[keen heron]

Plates are across all the manufacturers, not just one or two.

[frozen plank]

10

[lethal yacht]

Damn it Kyle

Also 10

[lavish shard]

okay, thought I was behind by a minute

[gleaming totem]

I'm joking since the Toyota are so much faster so far

[celest saffron]

so technically they run spacers now not restrictor plates but you guys get it

[gleaming totem]

Same purpose, designed to restrict horsepower

[keen heron]

That's true, the plates was when they had carbs, now they are fuel injected.

[gleaming totem]

Unrestricted these engines would make close to 1000 horsepower

[lavish shard]

dont you just love ads

i love them

[celest saffron]

i hate racing, but i love ads

[gleaming totem]

Bubba just took second

[lethal yacht]

Fuck Ace

[lavish shard]

its the part I look forward to every race

just the ads

lmfao

[gleaming totem]

But have to rely on twitter because of dam full screen commericals

[celest saffron]

Bubba being good in the day is bad for him at night lol

his crew chief isnt the best at making changes, especially during a long race like this

For now

[gleaming totem]

[celest saffron]

im already watching ads within this race technically

[lavish shard]

He got passed for the lead before the break but second during the break

Ryan Preece and Chris Buscher

Beuscher and ?

[celest saffron]

Safety Car

[lavish shard]

that green car's steering looks not right

[lethal yacht]

Denny

How did you go from 1st to 5th

[lavish shard]

lol

[gleaming totem]

Byron good stop

[celest saffron]

That's the beauty of Nascar, no pit limiters so you really have to watch your speed or you get penalized

Please be the last one

[celest saffron]

blistering after 20 LAPS??

man race gonna be 8hrs long with all these pit stops

[lethal yacht]

Bet

[keen heron]

Wow, great view of the tire loading up.

[final sandal]

why is the blistering starting so early

[lethal yacht]

I thought the 47 crashed into the 5

[gleaming totem]

Because Goodyear makes shitty tires, period.

[final sandal]

LMAO

pirelli pull up

[gleaming totem]

It's why they've pulled out of all the other motorsports

Used to be in F1, Indy, lot of dirt series, but left all those because they can't build a tire worth a dam

[celest saffron]

Tony Stewart is a big fan of theirs

[gleaming totem]

Yeah I'm basically quoting him at this point

[lavish shard]

and their road tyres are also not great

[final sandal]

im not buying a ram

[gleaming totem]

Oh I wouldn't recommend them

[final sandal]

ay they make a solid blimp tho

[lavish shard]

and somehow, neither are their MTB tyres

[gleaming totem]

https://youtu.be/RvBl4NhycbQ

Here's Tony Stewart's rant on Goodyear tires

[lavish shard]

im surprised they are still in nascar anyway

[lethal yacht]

They hit the Camera rip

[gleaming totem]

The fact that they're the biggest American tire manufacturer has probably saved them and honestly understand why they would want that

[keen heron]

Larson penalty for removing equipment from the pit stall.

[final sandal]

i love goodyear tires :fluoridestare:

[celest saffron]

M&M's and McDonalds front row

[keen heron]

Didn't F1 have two tire makers at one time, Pirelli and Michelin, right?

[gleaming totem]

Yes but tires wars sometimes have life and death consequences

[final sandal]

it was michelin and bridgestone i think

and the michelin tires shitted out at the 2006 american GP at indy

[keen heron]

14 got waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay loose

[final sandal]

and bc bridgestone owns firestone they knew how to make tires for indy

[gleaming totem]

And the Hoosier Goodyear tire war led to two deaths at the Daytona 500 in the early 90s

[final sandal]

it was like newly paved at that point

[celest saffron]

Suarez inspired by Checo??

[final sandal]

liking wallace bc hes a good driver < liking wallace becuase the spicy mcchicken hits

11 car needs a saul goodman sponsor

[gleaming totem]

Kurt Busch sometimes runs a McDonald's car but mostly is on Bubba's

Welp

Kyle probably isn't pleased

[keen heron]

Kyle Busch goes zaaaaaaaaaawhhhhhhhhhhhhhhheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

[autumn briar]

noooo

shit

[final sandal]

rough

[lethal yacht]

Fire

[final sandal]

not ideal

[keen heron]

Nah, just some excess gas in the pipes.

[sterile helm]

indy has to be the best race today

easily

[lethal yacht]

Larson

Almost in the wall

[gleaming totem]

It usually is but so far the Coke 600 has been much better than last year and many before that

[sterile helm]

nascar just doesn’t do the same thing that single seaters does for me

still fun for sure

been vibing

[gleaming totem]

I like both but Nascar will always have a special place in me as it's the first sport I've ever watched and for as long as I can remember

[lavish shard]

ooooh

for fucking 10 seconds

[final sandal]

nascar fans dont be racist challenge (impossible)

[gleaming totem]

We all matter regardless of who you are

[fast sentinel]

"all lives matter" that's completely ignoring the whole point of blm

[open raptor]

Most nascar thing ever

Sadly

[gleaming totem]

Let's not have a political discussion here but I find the pick and choosing to be rather disturbing and turns people against one another

[fast sentinel]

it's not picking and choosing it's that black lives matter TOO nobody said only they matter

[lavish shard]

great opinions, anyway\

nascarrrr

[gleaming totem]

Yea

I don't want to start this

Yeah were be here awhile

[dusty rampart]

Okay

[solar narwhal]

bruh to think we're only now getting to the last laps of Stage 1

[dusty rampart]

So this is my first full race since stage racing was introduced because I thought it was dumb and did not see the advantages

[solar narwhal]

yeah I think I'll be going to sleep before the end since it's 2 AM over here

[gleaming totem]

I don't like it but it is what it is

[dusty rampart]

Stages in the 600 are 100, 200, and then 400?

[gleaming totem]

Coke 600 has 4 stages, only track with that

[dusty rampart]

oh

So are there any actual advantages to the stage system? All it seems to do is remove strategy

[tawny elbow]

Congrats @dusty rampart, you're now on lap 20

[final sandal]

12 heures du coka-cola

it allows people to get playoff points that arent winning any races

[gleaming totem]

I don't think so but unfortunately I don't run Nascar

[final sandal]

also the end of oval races are the most exciting so having more ends to a race makes the race more fun

to watch

[gleaming totem]

Problem is when you hand out more points you make it less likely to have good points battles

That's my problem

[dusty rampart]

So it's kind of like 2 (or 3) sprint races and a feature race?

or are the points the same for all three/four stages?

[weak solar]

No I think

The stages gives less and the last gives the most and right now winning a race means that your in the playoffs

[dusty rampart]

okay

I looked it up

This is massively more confusing than it used to be

I watched Nascar for 10 years from 2006 to 2016 and this new shit is way more complicated than it used to be

No wonder Nascar has fallen off in popularity, average American brains can't handle this points system

[weak solar]

I know it is confusing. I think why they added all of this is to try to get more viewers

The clash did well

[dusty rampart]

I actually don't hate this as much as I originally did

[celest saffron]

the modern Chase playoffs system is so dumb

[dusty rampart]

Probably because I watch F2 and this points system kind of reminds me of that

Oh I didn't even look at the playoffs yet

is it even weirder?

[final sandal]

yes

its really weird

and like just annoying

[celest saffron]

basically if you make it to the last race its winner takes all, the other 35 races mean nothing

[dusty rampart]

dude

fucking essay

[celest saffron]

they tried to make it like the Super Bowl basically and its stupid
