All we need is "Thunder" back.

 

[Jahgee]

Rooting for Bobby Labonte in the 18 super hard

 

[GTPorsche]

I guess since PSN is having issues, I'll watch the Xfinity race.

 

[Northstar]

I can hardly tell Jeff Gordon is on Fox now, they really should advertise that more.

/Sarcasm

 

[GTPorsche]

I don't even know why there's some pre-Daytona, pre-taped "party" thing even happening.

 

[Jahgee]

Hearing that theme on TV just makes my day

 

[GTPorsche]

Bubba Wallace in the purple and pink.

NBC? Are you listening?

 

[GTPorsche]

Fox ticker was busted. Showed Austin Dillon in 48th and Ty Dillon in 46th, even though they're 1 and 2 currently.

 

[ukfan758]

Yes.

Stupid stupid idea. Stops safety teams getting on track fast.

If a crash happens past turn 2 on the final lap, they should be allowed to race back to the flag. The safety crews can go onto the track then while they're racing back without fear of a crash occurring with them out there (like if they were out there in turn 1). The exception is short tracks where it's too close to the finish line.

Needs to be all or nothing rule, no exceptions, especially since a lot of drivers don't know how to slow down responsibly.

 

[Cale]

Any stream?

Well in that case with the stupid drivers, no racing back to the flag.

 

[GTPorsche]

Again, all or nothing.

 

[ukfan758]

Again, all or nothing.

I responded with the "nothing" choice.

 

[Jahgee]

Either race back to the line, or freeze the field the moment of caution, **** timing lines

 

[GTPorsche]

Freezing the field is the best option.

 

[ukfan758]

Either race back to the line, or freeze the field the moment of caution, **** timing lines

Timing lines are horrible, so freeze the field.

 

[ukfan758]

That was a hard hit.

 

[Jahgee]

Timing lines would be a horrible idea, so freeze the field.

That's what we have now

 

[AnthonyD1993]

Absolutely just freeze the field and leave it at that. Letting them race will bring back situations like this again. Not good then, and it won't be good now.

 

[GTPorsche]

If caution clocks continue to be a thing, then cautions need to not count towards race laps. Timeouts in sports don't continue running down the game clock.

 

[NASCARGT]

NBC? Are you listening?

How about this? More epic IMO.

 

[GTPorsche]

Absolutely just freeze the field and leave it at that. Letting them race will bring back situations like this again. Not good then, and it won't be good now.

That's what caused them to change the rule on racing back to the line. That's also why the top lapped car gets a lap back, to make things even. TBH, a lapped car should only have the opportunity to get it's lap back if the car is within 2-3 seconds of the leader at the time of caution.

Guess no one watching the Busch Series race?

I'm watching it.

Every time they go 3-wide.

I can't now but how many laps done?
