MTJ is damn well running away with this one.

It looks like it, unless a caution comes out.

Congrats to Truex on winning the race at Martinsville. He dominated the race at the end.

He earned this victory!

You can't make this shit up.

They ban the confederate flag.

The next race is called the Dixie Vodka 400

Don't really care for NASCAR since Dale Sr's passing. However, this will cause even more fans to stop supporting the sport. It definitely has dwindled in the past decade, and I think it will still continue to fall.

I personally don't care if the flag is there or not, but I admit this censorship shit has become beyond pathetic. Erasing history is never a good thing. I was surprised at how many people didn't even know of the Tulsa Riots, so this right here could cause future generations not to ask questions and learn from previous generations mistakes.

 

[Vegeta]

Oh man. Can’t wait to see NASCAR make this official later.

 

[Vegeta]

Well it just made official on Racehub

Also, up to 30,00 fans will be allowed to attend.

The GEICO 500 has been postponed due to weather today. So, the race has been moved for tomorrow at 3PM ET on FOX.

You don't know how happy I am to see Dale Jr. get inducted into the NASCAR Hall of Fame for the Class of 2021. I think he deserves it because he was a very popular guy among fans. He's a determined racer he gives it all he's got. Congrats Junior!

What the fuck is wrong with people?!

ESPN

NASCAR said it is investigating after a noose was found in the garage of black driver Bubba Wallace on Sunday at Talladega Superspeedway in Lincoln, Alabama.

"Late this afternoon, NASCAR was made aware that a noose was found in the garage stall of the 43 team. We are angry and outraged, and cannot state strongly enough how seriously we take this heinous act," NASCAR said in a statement. "We have launched an immediate investigation, and will do everything we can to identify the person(s) responsible and eliminate them from the sport.

"As we have stated unequivocally, there is no place for racism in NASCAR, and this act only strengthens our resolve to make the sport open and welcoming to all."

Wallace said in a statement that he was "incredibly saddened" by the "despicable act of racism."

This makes me sad as a NASCAR fan having to read something like this before going to bed. Bubba's a helluva racer and a classy guy for responding in a polite way. We should treat all people and races with respect. I don't condone hatred.

 

[Vegeta]

This makes it even sadder.

 

[King Kota]

Screw people who the fuck would do that Bubba to is one of my fav drivers

 

[Stellar]

Yeah, the situation with the noose sucks. Whoever left the noose is a complete idiot. Especially when theirs a limited amount of certain people that are allowed in the garages right now.

Looking forward to the race at Talladega. Almost time!

Chase Elliotts in-car camera will be shown on youtube during the race:

Richard Petty and Bubba Wallace hugging.. that is awesome.

Really fucked up situation with what happened they get to the bottom of who did that. With how expensive cars are you'd think they'd have a pretty high tech camera security system in place.

Heard Marty Smith talking this morning and he acted like it's no question whoever did it will be caught soon bc of how limited the areas are and also bc they have cameras everywhere.
