i wonder if the ilmor engines will be good at the non plate tracks

...

/indy/

They seem to be down on power and they get worse fuel mileage, so it's going to be a tall order to compete with the manufacturer supported engines. Based on the ARCA version, the biggest strength is that they're bulletproof. If the only thing they do is keep the field filled and smaller teams coming to the track, NASCAR will take that as a win.

...

Alright lads, have a bunch of these pics of the Pheonix test I got off of a blog called OpenWheels33.
This was especially obvious because before I formatted them to 16:9, they had a huge watermark.

Every livery is here, though I won't post Harding because the guy didn't get a decent picture.

...

>keep the field filled and smaller teams coming to the track,
It's called, "racing".

I’ve been a NASCAR fans since ‘98 but stopped watching after Tony left. Who should I root for that is roughly an equivalent?

Also, of course in can Google it, but is there any changes to the cars this year?

Thanks motor heads

...

...

official 500 winner roll

...

...

...

Wtf is the difference between Nascar Xfinity series and Nascar cup series

...

The names of the sponsors.

...

>Who should I root for
The fastest.

How about quit being a faggoty fanboi once in your life and just respect the on-track racing for a change, regardless of the driver.

...

...

...

Clit

I thought they were rolling out the windshields this season? Is it next year?

...

a few horsepower

Still in testing and development. They want to make mounting system changes and possibly shape changes.
They were mostly testing the visibility of the material.

...

Smoke is a team owner still. Owns:
4 - Harvick
10 - Almirola
14 - Bowyer
41 - Krut

There are literally too many changes to list. That's why last year was called the "silly season". Just watch tomorrow.

...

...

...

this is the most inventive indy livery I've seen in years

...

...

...

...

...

He is sitting VERY low compared to the other drivers.

Maybe that's why he crashes so often... his seat is set too low and he can't see?!

Pretty crazy looking.
I seem to recall Dale or KV Racing doing something like that a few years ago too, just not quite as subtle.

who's driving this one?

Bubba honestly reminds me a little bit of Stewart.

Kyle Kaiser, Indy Lights champ.
The other guy is some Austrian pay driver named Rene Binder.

I don't fault Juncos though, may as well have an extra car on the field.

the amount of money the drivers get paid

Who's /myguy/ for Daytona?
Should it be Blaney or Larson?

why not both

Nobody, as you're obviously a faggot, and there's no fags in NASCAR....except maybe Michael Waltrip.

Why don't you go back to /reddit/ with your fanboi cancer.

>theres no fags in nascar

>logano

>Logano
Fair enough.

It's better to have heroes, people to root against. Means you have more of an emotional stake in the race.
I appreciate racecraft, it's what makes me a fan of a particular driver in the first place.
If a race doesn't play out for /myguy/ I don't throw a fit and suggest it was a shit race.

one week to the first race of World Superbikes at Philip Island

I never understood the people who would pay hundreds of dollars to go to a race, then leave as soon as their driver was out of contention, no matter how early in the race it was.

/ragsinabox/

>Sadlel still whining that he "lost the championship" because Ryan Preece had the audacity to race him for position

it's always called the "silly season" in September-December when contracts are coming to an end and aren't re-signed yet, but last year was a pretty crazy one

xfinity

...

Can drivers and teams race in both? What's the point of Xfinity then if there's no promotion to cup series or relegation from cup to Xfinity? Why race in it at all if you're in the cup? Is there some spreadsheet that tells me what the differences are?

...

...

...

...

are there any SX threads on Sup Forums ?

>Why race in it at all
Costs.
>Cup: highest cost
>Xfin: 2nd
>trucks: lowest cost of the series

>sponsored by Food Country USA
>Tide PODS on the hood

So that's what started it

Not usually in these threads.

We get some MOTOGP fans, though.

lol

...

Bubba

World Superbike next week

nice moto GP is sweet

BRUH LOOK AT THIS GAY DOOD
OH NO NO NO NO NO NO NO

LOOK AT THE TOP OF HIS HEAD

Rolling for Official Daytona 500 winner

danica is far more masculine than rodgers

>Denny got pulled to the hauler for that joke
Hoping Zero Fucks Dale gets more drivers to actually speak out when NASCAR gets angry when drivers show personality.

but denny is a retard and he deserves to be told he is a retard

Go back to bed, Chase
