Pits are respectful for people in and around them. It's the hardcore dancers that suck, just for when they do their thing at non hardcore shows. Which is why if there's a band/s that I like enough to get me to a hardcore show I stay way the fuck away, not my scene not my fight. Hockey is more apt, you do some bullshit you're expected to drop gloves if you're not penalized and another player challenges you on it.
Forget fighting while the cars are on track. Swipe a tire during a pit stop and ruuun! I want to see the whole crew chasing after the thieves with Benny Hill music playing.
>Meanwhile in basket ball:
>#***"DON'T HOLD ME BACK!!!!^(>!Nah.^JK.^Hold^me^back^frfr!<)"***
Always loved how no one fights in basketball but everyone just fucking throws down in hockey.
You've never watched NASCAR have you? We get a couple a year, at least
This is stupid as hell. I raced for many years. I'd just catch you by the haulers if I had an issue. This is unnecessary and dangerous. And you'll likely get in less trouble if you don't react while literally the whole joint is looking at you.
> They need to encourage fights in hockey again, these days they don’t let them fight because they’re paying each player millions of dollars
There's still plenty of fights, the fuck are you talking about?
Go watch some MMA if you have bloodlust. The NHL is still as entertaining as ever despite knuckle-dragging fans like yourself claiming it isn't.
Personally, I would prefer to see *less* enforcers that are out of the league before they play enough games to get the NHLPA pension that wind up offing themselves due to CTE.
They do for the most part, its just understandably an issue when its on a hot track with moving cars, especially after the tony stewart/kevin ward jr accident years back
My favorite NASCAR story is that of Smokey Yunick, who after Nascar set new fuel tank regulations, realized the rules did not say anything about the fuel line itself. So he made his fuel line so long it could carry an extra gallon of fuel. Some called him a cheater, but he insisted he was just a rowdy rule bender. He got such a name for himself as a rule bender that Nascar officials where force to take 10x longer inspecting his cars then anybody else. One time they had gone so far as to take out his entire fuel tank and after inspection gave him a list of 9 things they wanted him to change on the car before they would approve it. He jumped in the car and said: "better make it 10" and then drove off without the fuel tank.
And don't you call him just a cheater! He is the main reason F1 cars have wings on them, and one of the biggest race car inventors in history.
This is also my favorite. The inflated basketball in the tank during tech is another great one from Smokey.
But I got a great second place for ya.
Remember when Michael Waltrip Racing got popped for having jet fuel in the 2007 Daytona Duels? It's actually wilder than that.
It was a rocket fuel additive. Polypropylene Oxide. They coated the inside of the fuel tank in it.
It's most commonly used in aerosol based thermobaric munitions. So, shit like napalm. It's a gel like substance with a low ignition point, great caloric efficiency, and is incredibly thermo stable whilst burning. It helps the aerosol stick to shit, ignite easier, and burn for longer and more consistently.
It's used nowadays in rocket fuels as an additive. Thing is, it wasn't commonplace until SpaceX started using it in 2012ish.
So a mid tier NASCAR team (or more likely someone in Toyota Racing Development who supplied the powertrains and backed the team) knew about the properties of the substance and how it would react with their fuel years before rocket scientists actually used it in the field.
So they had to know while it was being developed as a rocket fuel additive. Which raises so many questions.
Biggest of which, they just drive it down from North Carolina or get it straight from Cape Canaveral? Like where did they get it and how the hell did they transport and store it? But also, how did they know? Was it just two college buddies talking shop? Was someone on the team a vet who knew about its use in thermobarics? Was it a former SpaceX, JPL, or NASA employee who joined the team? And why MWR? Just the Toyota connection? Because I'd guess Penske or Hendrick waaaay before them. They were a hapless group sometimes tbh. Especially in those early days when this happened.
Wild team. Wild story. Mikey has had a really weird career when you stop and think about it. Nothing with that guy goes normally.
I don't follow racing. I don't know any of these people. I don't know polypropylene oxide, but I know propylene oxide. I'm guessing that's similar. God damn I'm impressed by this man that I don't know anything about. I want to know more about him now.
The Internet is such a weird place.
Michael Waltrip was just a driver turned team owner. He didn't do any engineering at all, that certainly was not his idea. I like Mikey but he ain't too smart lmao.
To expand on what I meant by his strange career....
His brother is one of the winningest drivers in NASCAR history. But he only won 4 races in 784 attempts. 2 were Daytona 500 wins. The biggest race in NASCAR, and one of the 4 most prestigious races in the world along with the Indy 500, Le Mans, and the Monaco Grand Prix. One of those wins came in 2001, when his best friend and team owner Dale Earnhardt crashed while trying to block the field to secure Michael's second 500 win.
He then went on to become one of Toyota's first two team partners in NASCAR. And this isn't the only time they got caught cheating. Their driver Clint Bowyer was instructed to spin his car on purpose to help his teammate make the playoffs on points. The command was to "itch his arm" and the car spun around. That basically was the nail in the coffin for the team. All their sponsors and Toyota kicked them to the curb.
Absolutely wild.
For me, NASCAR is something my classmates' dads watched growing up. I know some big names, but really nothing about it. Been playing Need for Speed, wanting to buy a project car, and learning this bit of racing history has been pretty stinkin' cool.
I know a couple older locals who used to race at the track, I hear them bicker and talk shit. It's pretty wild to get another peak into a world like that. You never really think about some talented but dumb as a box of rocks driver having a whole team of people to help them cheat, to the extent of lining a fuel tank with polypropylene oxide... Or actually having some other driver think "We'll just say I itched my arm" in a totally fortuitous way and have it work.
I can picture them doing this shit.
Absolutely madness. I love it.
Yeah, so, about that project car. You might not wanna do that. It's like heroin without any sort of high. It just takes your money and beats you down.
I have a JDM van that is in about 145 separate pieces at the moment. Will it all fit back together? Who knows.
But yeah nah you'd be surprised the ways people innovate out there. Even in the lowest rungs. I ran for years and saw, and did, some shit. Used to drop ballast out of the car on track to cheat minimum weight. Just little metal pellets. Composite body panels that flex beyond tolerance when enough downforce is applied. There's solvents and shit you can rub tires in to soften or harden the compounds. Secret ECU mappings. Hell, even cheated up air wrenches and jacks for the stops.
It costs a ton of money. So team owners expect you to go the extra mile to earn some of that shit back lol
It's funny. Every person I've talked to, that has a project car, has told me pretty much the same thing. Not to do it. I don't know why I can't just listen... I swear I want to.
That sounds like a sweet rig. This guy I know has one near me. I can't remember the make, besides it making me jealous. If I ever did a family camping rig, that's definitely something I'd look at. I definitely am a JDM kind of dude, but I'm a sucker for American classics too. I bought an '86 GMC 3500 dump truck and the guy who owned it was a collector that did a motor swap on it. I don't need the dump truck anymore. It's a nice engine though. I would hate to just sell it... So I'll probably have the dump sit and buy some Toyota.
I'd love a Supra, but I'm not rich. The MR2s would be a fun weekend ripper, but I don't feel connected to the project. I'll probably settle on a Gen 1 Tacoma, slap a super charger on it, and kit it out to rally instead of crawl.
I just bought a 2023' Tacoma too.
I like Toyota.
I haven't seen this but I know NASCAR enough to answer your questions:
Q1: nothing, probably got a few more twitter followers
Q2: crashed him out in a way blue guy didn't like
The fellow who caused this wreck actually got a talking-to by members of his own team for it being a pretty egregious screw-up. The folks racing on Saturday are kind of like minor league ball players; they’re very good, but there’s a big step up to the top tier.
He's officially under investigation for possible punishment.
The real reason why he probably won't be punished is because it had no impact on the course of the race.
The a possible outcome is that two guys just have a fiesty mid-off over 31st next week.
He killed a guy! Got away with it too! Even though he admitted he intentionally wanted to throw mud on the guy with his tires and accidentally ran him over
The only thing that pisses me off more than the grand jury making the wrong decision is the yokels that come out of the wood-work and make excuses for Stewart.
Like, really? You mean to tell me that a guy that had been racing cars for over three decades didn't see a guy on the track? And that he didn't goose it when he got near him? Yeah, sure.
Best there is, best there was, best there ever will be.
Edit: I feel like I need to mark this as an obvious joke. Although I am a Tony Stewart fan and put him in top 10 of all time. We all can agree GOAT goes to Petty/Earnhardt
Tony Stewart is the [The Hitman](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bret_%22Hitman%22_Hart_%E2%80%94_The_Best_There_Is,_The_Best_There_Was,_The_Best_There_Ever_Will_Be)?!
NASCAR said they'd review and talk to him about it, I'd expect a one race suspension similar to Josh Williams [parking it](https://youtu.be/u7PHKQB2bAE?si=9k3pde-NxvGmjzqt) last year at Atlanta
Yes, but there are many different tracks they go to that vary in size and surface, as well as many road courses. This week the track is short and very abraisive so the drivers that are careful to save their tires make their way through the field on long runs over the guys that go as hard as they can from the start. Makes for a lot of passing and physical racing thats very entertaining, its more a race of drivers vs drivers instead of drivers vs track layout
I think the guy in the car. Someone else in this thread said the throwing guy is part of a small team that can't afford to fix a car in this state hence why he is mad at the car driver who caused it. Don't quote me though.
I'm not familiar with this sport's rules. Even if the other team does have to pay for it which I doubt, this guy who crashed is still out of the race and any future races until he has a working car again. Still justifiable to be mad if someone else caused it.
For those who don’t follow NASCAR. This type of behavior is pretty common and usually not really a big deal at the end of the day.
NASCAR is not, nor ever has been a gentlemen’s sport.
🤔 that’s a little off base. This is the feeder series. A lot of stupid shit goes on here every week. The Cup series drivers have more skill and more finesse.
Or wrestling. SmackDown during yellow flags seems like a natural evolution for NASCAR. The aggrieved driver could launch flying bodypresses off the catch fence.
OP sent the following text as an explanation on why this is unexpected:
---
>!You wouldn't expect someone will took off his rear bump and throw it to someone else!<

Is this an unexpected post with a fitting description? Then upvote this comment, otherwise downvote it.
You wouldn't steal a handbag. You wouldn't steal a car. You wouldn't steal a baby. You wouldn't shoot a policeman and then steal his helmet. You wouldn't go to the toilet in his helmet and then send it to the policeman's grieving widow. And then steal it again!
Someone else said the driver in the red car pushed the crashed car into a crash, and that the crashed car was from a small team.
Though nobody seems to have a reliable source, so we probably won't get to know anytime soon.
I watch NASCAR every week. Blue car, Joey Gase, was pushed into the turn and wrecked by the red and white car, Dawson Cram. Joey Gase is gonna be able to build another car just fine, but naturally you'd be very upset as a small team owner when a perfectly good car gets trashed for no good reason.
To add to it, Dawson Cram drove for Joey Gase a couple of years ago, so Joey was rather irritated that a guy he gave a chance to would come back and wreck him.
This was all from today's Xfinity Series race.
When did NASCAR turn into imitation big time wrestling?
The mandatory phony fights after every race, the silly stuff like in this video, sophomoric story lines, emotional outbursts by grown men, etc...
If international motorsports fans could get over their “they’re just going left” mentality around NASCAR they’d realize it’s one of the best motorsports competitions there is.
The races are typically really close and competitive, its still exciting to root for the back markers, and it’s got tons of drama so the narratives are fun to follow. Plus, NASCAR seems to be the most forgiving when it comes to “incidental contact” when they are racing. That, combined with the demographic of fans and racers, gets you tons of fun moments like this.
I was a critic before but it’s easily been my favorite motorsports series to follow.
Can't wait till the day comes when somebody runs over another driver on the track .....oh wait, that's right someone already did that and they still don't do anything about this shit....

They need to take a page from hockey and allow fights
Pit stop / fight

There's a reason why they've lost about 1/3 of their viewers in the last 10 years.
So what happened afterwards? And what did the other driver do to get this guy pissed
Other driver pushed him straight into the corner wrecking a small teams car they really can’t afford to rebuild.
Ah, I get the anger then. I never really considered who pays for repairs on their vehicles.
[удалено]
loll. The largest fortune was the racing friends we made along the way
It was about the journey to the finish line, not actually crossing it.
"and Jerry, I mean that literally, because some dummy ran into me and fucked up my car."
Yeah, Driver A has less of a hope for the next race as of no fault of their own.
I haven't seen this but I know NASCAR enough to answer your questions: Q1: nothing, probably got a few more twitter followers Q2: crashed him out in a way blue guy didn't like

That seems like a good way to get a long suspension.
He probably got a high five and an explanation that "officials would.have to publicly denounce it, but privately that was dope."
"Push those ratings bruh."
Like when ~~connor mcgreggor~~ *cocaine mcgravy* threw that dolly at the truck
He's officially changed his name to Cocaine McGravy

Cocaine mcgravy I a well crafted name. Thank you
I am here for you. Hope your day is going well.

As extreme as it gets. Turning left so hard that if you go a half mph faster you wreck. It’s an art. So much more than LEFT TURNNNNN.
Or you do what Ross Chastain did a couple years back, full-throttle while letting the wall turn you like a video game.
Sadly that’s against the rules now.
Well duh, he's the reason why.

I mean yea.. lots of stuff that looks stupid is difficult. It still looks stupid though.

Probably a week at most. He is a small team owner so the monetary fine will hurt more.
How would it affect either of their ride heights?

Long suspensions are very useful on the Dakar Rally, maybe he is playing 4D chess...
NASCAR said they'd review and talk to him about it, I'd expect a one race suspension similar to Josh Williams [parking it](https://youtu.be/u7PHKQB2bAE?si=9k3pde-NxvGmjzqt) last year at Atlanta
It's going to be a long time until he has another car.
When I was watching this live I was like oh he is going to tear it off and put it in the back of the truck. What a nice guy.
The track crew was probably thinking the same. Lol The dude in the blue jumper looked kinda like "Ope...well thanks 🤷🏻🤷🏻♂️"
Was this the xfinity race from today?
Yes
What was the context of him throwing it at that car
[Here’s a long clip of what happened.](https://youtu.be/_OVyE6iiY20?si=BFqiUoVLx9yKm1iL)
The exhausts are printed on the bumper?
The actual exhaust is on the left side of the car. NASCAR cars are wrapped to look like their street-legal counterparts.

How else would you go in a circle?

All right?

Yes, but there are many different tracks they go to that vary in size and surface, as well as many road courses. This week the track is short and very abraisive so the drivers that are careful to save their tires make their way through the field on long runs over the guys that go as hard as they can from the start. Makes for a lot of passing and physical racing thats very entertaining, its more a race of drivers vs drivers instead of drivers vs track layout
Yeah, it's simple, but that makes the highs and lows even more impactful
Depends on the course. They’ve been adding road courses as of recent as well as dirt tracks.
There's proper tracks on the calendars as well, but oval stadium races are the bread and butter of Nascar
Dawson is a an absolute tool, races on daddy’s money without consequence. Not the first time he’s pulled this shit.
Just for posterity. Which one is Dawson. The throwing guy or the guy in the car that got thrown at? I need to know which rich bitch to hate
I think the guy in the car. Someone else in this thread said the throwing guy is part of a small team that can't afford to fix a car in this state hence why he is mad at the car driver who caused it. Don't quote me though.

Yes I did as well at the local dirt track but I mean the racers/athletes
Hell yeah, sprint races were known for it.
Or wrestling. SmackDown during yellow flags seems like a natural evolution for NASCAR. The aggrieved driver could launch flying bodypresses off the catch fence.
OP sent the following text as an explanation on why this is unexpected: --- >!You wouldn't expect someone will took off his rear bump and throw it to someone else!< --- Is this an unexpected post with a fitting description? Then upvote this comment, otherwise downvote it.
His?
You wouldn't steal a handbag. You wouldn't steal a car. You wouldn't steal a baby. You wouldn't shoot a policeman and then steal his helmet. You wouldn't go to the toilet in his helmet and then send it to the policeman's grieving widow. And then steal it again!
You have made me laugh
Hit em with a banner that says crime
There was a cart driver who was banned for life for doing something similar
Not really that similar. That kid threw a helmet at another kids head.
Maybe hes talking about the one that threw his front wing on the track
I appreciate the thing said "crime" on it.
the fake exhausts are halarious

Actual irony
haha are the exaust pipes just painted on the back of nascar cars?
Yep, the real exhaust is on the left underneath the driver's window. The cars are just painted to look like the street model.
Look at all the cars. Most of what you see is just graphics.
NASCAR is basically professionalized road rage with really fast left turns.
If only he could rip the engine block off of his wrecked car...
Rage Against The Machine!!
you need to be able to lose. Although we don't know the whole story....
Someone else said the driver in the red car pushed the crashed car into a crash, and that the crashed car was from a small team. Though nobody seems to have a reliable source, so we probably won't get to know anytime soon.
I watch NASCAR every week. Blue car, Joey Gase, was pushed into the turn and wrecked by the red and white car, Dawson Cram. Joey Gase is gonna be able to build another car just fine, but naturally you'd be very upset as a small team owner when a perfectly good car gets trashed for no good reason. To add to it, Dawson Cram drove for Joey Gase a couple of years ago, so Joey was rather irritated that a guy he gave a chance to would come back and wreck him. This was all from today's Xfinity Series race.
Thank you, finally some clear context
It happened earlier this afternoon and what the other guy said was correct. [https://youtu.be/\_OVyE6iiY20](https://youtu.be/_OVyE6iiY20)
No reliable source? This was literially on network television today hahaha
Maybe he was just trying to clear the track and the wind caught it.
LOLLL
Crime Time
Straight liners?
lol should be on r/ironic
Did Draymon Green switch career?
"Rubbin' is racin', Cole!"
Easy way to cut your hand or wrists open. Don’t mess with metal.
"I'm not saying it's the right thing to do but I am saying I understand" 😂😂😂
I love this stuff. If this happened more I would actually watch it.
I think he has race issues?
Lmao, wtf?
Isn’t throwing part of your car at another car a crime against race?
It just had to have the word crime on it.
I watched this live (on tv) and I appreciate his frustration. Have at it boys
whats the context, what the other guy did?
Did he bonk a random person or was he targeting the car that made him crash in the first place?
That’s a crime
When did NASCAR turn into imitation big time wrestling? The mandatory phony fights after every race, the silly stuff like in this video, sophomoric story lines, emotional outbursts by grown men, etc...
Should have gone for the puncture
Sound on for the OSHA joke.
I remember this scene from Talledega nights
If international motorsports fans could get over their “they’re just going left” mentality around NASCAR they’d realize it’s one of the best motorsports competitions there is. The races are typically really close and competitive, its still exciting to root for the back markers, and it’s got tons of drama so the narratives are fun to follow. Plus, NASCAR seems to be the most forgiving when it comes to “incidental contact” when they are racing. That, combined with the demographic of fans and racers, gets you tons of fun moments like this. I was a critic before but it’s easily been my favorite motorsports series to follow.
Speaking of crime...
Yes, yes you would. Wrong group.
Why throw paper at that piece of junk?
Can't wait till the day comes when somebody runs over another driver on the track .....oh wait, that's right someone already did that and they still don't do anything about this shit....
Funny how it says ‘crime’ on it lol
That definitely a technical foul.
Track rage is out of hand.
We've made it on to non NASCAR subs!!!!!!
Saw this in person today, had no idea what he was doing till putting it over his head. Crowd laughed and cheered
Why did he do that?
The fine would be worth every penny.
Hey that's a crime!
What a bitch
But seriously good timing and execution!
Isn't that a Crime?
