Stock Car Racing (NASCAR, ARCA... BRISCA?? :P)

brilliant

Wow who just saw elliot saddlers huge crash? how is he still alive? the engine was ripped off the mounts!

i missed it. i hope there is a replay after the race.

They didnt have a great angle all you saw was his nose slam an armco barrier, and dirt go flying. it was Jimmy johnsons fault. I hate him more every week i swear.

i see a bunch of tire marks near turn2 (The Tunnel). is that where it happened?

Yeah going down that straight. Johnson spun Kurt bush and when the field checked up after he slammed the wall, sadler got turned

Did Napcar just get interesting?

personally, i h8 Pocono. the field gets way too spread out, except for restarts and such. i wish NASCAR would add more Road Course races to the Sprint Cup schedule and not just the Nationwide schedule

As someone who goes to pocono, i cant agree anymore. I would love a race at VIR, Summit Point, Mid ohio, or even somewhere like barber or road atlanta.

or even Road America, like the Nationwide boys ran earlier this year. HELL, even the Daytona Infield thats ran in the Rolex 24 and in the Superbikes would be interesting as well.

edit: hmm. GT5 + the NASCAR cars + Daytona Infield = fun

Indianapolis infield is in GT5 as well

oooooooooo.

i will say this first Nightrider CRAPCAR wil NEVER EVER go to Road Atlanta due to the huge rivalry that happened in the mid to late 90's between USRRC (Now Grand-AM) and the World Sports Car series (Now ALMS).

second, Switch you mentioned StockCars on the Daytona infield as being fun I will tell you that is the best racing i have ever seen from watching this actually happen with the HSR (America's version of Historic Racing) and there's a good 20-30 cars that show up for that and they BEAT on eachother its very much like the Late 90's Trans-Am series in the style of racing.

a couple years back, the IROC series ran the Infield, at nightfall mind you, and that was intense!!

i know i was there for the grand-am race that was going before that one.... wasnt that exciting actually i remember it being extreamly boring

well, i enjoyed watching it on TV. but there is definitely something seeing it Live over TV.

oh on tv yeah was entertaining because the camera's were following the action but when you're in the stands and there's only 12 cars buch closely together on a 3.5 ile track it gets really boring really quick!

Well back to Sadler crash, I can't believe I'm saying this but I'm thankful for the CoT. With all the "improvements" made with the CoT, I shudder to think what would've happened with the old cars..

The HANS device really saved him too. he couldve snapped his neck without one

He said he was sore where the harness holds him in the seat. And if it wasnt for the vast number of improvements, I think we may have had a Dale Sr type result, as sad as i have to refer to that

Looked harder than even Earnhardt. But unlike Earnhardt, he had a long runup to burn off speed before the wall. Earnhardt hit the wall almost exactly at 200mph because he went right into it. Sadler probably hit around 150mph Tops
