Also what series do you think it’s most likely to happen in?

Races with abnormally long green flag runs?

I really enjoy watching old races with long green runs and strategy, but with old races come phantom debris cautions. As soon as one comes out I lose interest quickly. List some pre 2017 cup races with long green flag runs

I still don't understand why drafting tracks get no practice

Excluding the Daytona 500 I think, all they get is a single lap of qualifying and that is it, no practice to try and make sure the car is handling right, which you need when racing in a pack, and other important stuff. Please, make that make sense

Some people that don't like the racing right now are blaming the hybrid system but exactly how is the hybrid system negatively affecting the racing?

NASCAR villains, the 70s to the present.

Good morning! The post is put up yesterday ( sexiest drivers) was so much fun! Keep 'em coming!

I have a new question that should be a lot of fun! I started watching NASCAR races on TV in the early 70s( Thank you, Wide World Of Sports on ABC!) The first NASCAR "villain" that i truly remember was Darrell Waltrjp ( other drivers called him "Jaws" because of his constant trash talking). There have been a lot of villains since then, from Dale " The Intimidator" Earnhardt to Kyle "Rowdy" Bush to the current villain, Denny Hamlin! So, who is your favorite villain from the 70s to now? I was 9 when I started watching, so I don't remember the early villains. That's why I said the 70s on. Have fun!

Ticket Collections/Displays

I have a ton of tickets of my visits to IMS over the years for the Indy 500, and Brickyard 400. I'd love to try and find a way to display them in our basement on the wall.

I couldn't find any Toploaders that fit the 3x8 ticket size, so I'm hoping there's something out there that you guys have seen ro are using. Alternatively, I'm open to any kind of suggestions. Our basement is pretty car centered with several posters, 3D printed tracks and my racing sim rig so it'll fit in pretty well if I can find a decent way to put them up (preferably something that looks decent vs just tacking them to the wall).

Congrats to Ryan Preece

For winning or not flipping this weekend!

Manifest it!

Give me your thoughts on this: keep the underbody, remove the diffuser, softer tires, and bigger spoiler(warning: wall of text)

I heard that one of the problems with the next gen is that It rides so high in the front that when you get behind another car and you lose front downforce and that if we could get the nose down to the ground that it could improve the racing. Well I also heard from Denny Hamlin on Actions Detrimental that they tried a setup like that during testing befor the car's debut but the cars were not drivable at all because air wasn’t getting to the diffuser. Well picture this: keep the underbody, remove the diffuser, keep the current tire width but make them softer so that they don't last forever, and a bigger spoiler in place of the diffuser. Think high downforce, low horsepower of the previous generation but with 670hp instead of 550hp. Would this produce good or bad racing on 1 mile or bigger tracks excluding drafting tracks and road courses? Also be nice, no need for rude behavior
