The size of the window in which I am watching the NASCAR Cup Series Everyone-Is-An-All-Star Race is proportionate to its significance as a motor racing competition

Ryan Preece's car just literally exploded on the first lap. He got out.

It looks like it's going to be difficult for NASCAR to ever produce as meaningless a shit-show as this Dover all-star race

I bet the only reason there is an All-Star Race at all this year is that Dover and TV were both owed a race contractually

I cannot wait to see the TV numbers for Dover


Indy 500 qualifying thread 🏟️

Did Dixon just use his first two laps for momentum to keep his speeds consistent for the second two laps with the hybrid boost, cuz that's pretty interesting

That's not a Fast 6 strategy, but it's definitely an "I can go exactly 231.5 miles per hour for four laps" strategy

Damn, RHR is gonna be the slowest McLaren

So much for the Year of RLL

Imagine some kind of crying meme nerd character but it's the Dallara DW12, and it's saying "I pwomise I'm a weawwy fast wace caw, I just go a wittle swowwer in the sun 😭😭😭😭"

Will Power performs the best when his connection to Andretti Global's trackside team is not functional

60 is definitely trying to win the Indianapolis 500

Year of DRR

Year of Juncos selling its charters to DRR

I just remembered Alex Palou is in this

A European rookie just beat Sting Ray Robb by 2 MPH

Andretti needs to take a really good look at why the 28 is their best car this year

Oh man I can't wait for Caio

HELL YES I am so glad this kid is Ferrucci's teammate

It's not fair to make Helio drive a hybrid Indy car after all these years

All right KyffDawg

Nooo Jack, not your fault dude

Jack's throttle trace is a horizontal line at the top, it's such a bummer

Okay Jacob and Kat, it's time to bump Palou

Yaaay Jacob Abel gets to do the 500 this year by qualifying 31st yaay

I come out of that with medium confidence in Kat's car

Man, how does Pato drive this thing

My god, Dixon is the slowest at CGR

I think Caio Collet is my favorite IndyCar driver right now

I am now nervous every time I see the 3 car on track in Indianapolis

TWO HUNDRED AND FORTY TWO MILES PER HOUR

Aw man Caio

Can someone explain to Will Buxton that there are still other people who can qualify unless the person who just went is last

*sigh*

OK ROGER WAS RIGHT

I can get behind FRO and MSR for this race

I feel like Rosenqvist is gonna clear 232

Holy shit

Jack Harvey reports they had a 5th gear problem that slowed them down in quali. What a tough day they had
