nah, she's good

typical internet mob getting their panties in a wad because she said the word ******, and it forced Nascar to do something to look like they are doing something about it.

I'm kind of pulling for the 5 car this year. Cancel culture happens in NASCAR as well. So, I'd like to see him get his career moving forward again...


I like the following drivers:

Kyle Larson
Chase Elliot
Ryan Blaney
William Byron - he is the nephew of my church's Music Minister

Spire Motorsports announced Tuesday that Jamie McMurray will return to NASCAR Cup Series competition next month, driving the No. 77 Chevrolet in the Daytona 500.

McMurray last competed in NASCAR's top division in 2019, also in a one-off start with Spire in The Great American Race. McMurray who joined FOX Sports as a NASCAR analyst after his full-time driving days has seven Cup Series victories, including a triumph in the 2010 Daytona 500.

Sponsorship for the No. 77 effort will be provided by AdventHealth, which was a primary backer for Spire in two races last year and is a current team partner with Chip Ganassi Racing.

"It doesn't get any better than the Daytona 500, and I am so excited to have the opportunity, thanks to AdventHealth, to run this race one more time. I have enjoyed my time out of the car as an analyst covering NASCAR, but nothing can replace the feeling of actually racing," McMurray said in a release announcing the news.

McMurray will be teammates with Corey LaJoie, who joins the organization for a full-season schedule this year in Spire's No. 7 Chevy. The team expands to a two-car effort for 2021.

Bluegreen Vacations is returning as the title sponsor of this year's Duel @Daytona, the quali races that set the starting field for the 500.

Bluegreen is NASCAR's official partner in the vacation ownership category. https://t.co/fU6F8nnIEg

NBC Sports Network is shutting down later this year and big events (NHL and NASCAR among them) will migrate to USA Network. Story coming ASAP.

Of note: USA Network is in 86.2 million homes. NBCSN is in 80.6 million homes. NBC is telling bigger leagues that the move to USA will increase their viewership.

.@KelleyBlueBook has signed a two-year extension with @TeamHendrick that again includes two primaries on Chase Elliott's No. 9 Chevy annually (this year: fall Richmond and fall Texas).

The company's original deal with HMS came in 2014.

I heard NASCAR tried hard for Verizon to become a premier partner, glad to see them on a car.

I guess Miller is finally done. One could see this coming. I have a feeling we will Jimmy Johns do the same thing once Harvick is done. JJ has been dropping races for the last couple of years now.

.@NASCAR will host around 30,000 fans for next month's Daytona 500, Steve Phelps told SBJ Executive Editor & Publisher Abe Madkour in a new interview.

: "We'll have a fairly robust number of fans, probably in the 30,000 range plus camping, but we have to do it responsibly." https://t.co/xFsciZpj7r

What do you think would happen if NASCAR would say: if you want to come to the Daytona 500, we have tickets. Do you think NASCAR fans would fill the place?

more specifically it reminds me of the black 31 that Dale let Neil Bonnett drive in the 93 Diehard 500. I believe it had red on the bottom like that

That's a good question. I think you would be surprised of how many would show up, now I don't think it would be full.
