Well, Dennis says, "Piss on NASCAR".

NASCAR denounces 'Let's go, Brandon' conservative rally cry (apnews.com)

 

Think next year I'll watch rugby instead.

NASCAR almost lost me with all the stage nonsense. I realize peoples attention span is geared towards more instant gratification. So that was their answer. Football did lose me with the whole disrespect towards the flag. Entertaining and grievance don’t mix. Wrong time and place. You do have to be careful at what offends you though. You’ll find yourself pissed off at the world mumbling to yourself staring out the window. You need an escape from reality for a few hours. The world kinda of a drag a present.

Vindication is sweet; mighty sweet, indeed.

Regular season champion.

Playoff champion.

NASCAR 2021 champion.

 

#5 Chevrolet driven by Kyle Larson.

 

 

And Bubba was first out of today's race.

 

Amen and amen.

So I guess we have to add the "B-word" as another word we can't say at a NASCAR race.

 

Why do I even bother to watch that anymore.

I still prefer nascar. I’d rather see them go back to pre stage racing. I always thought  little E was over promoted. Even though his dad was my favorite. I think bubba is over promoted. He’s going to have to step up now he has a teammate who has talent. It was satisfying seeing who became champion. Even though I would have been just as happy seeing Chase win. A son of a champion with real talent.

It’s been amusing to watch Ross give Denny a taste of his own medicine this year. I don’t have a favorite anymore since 2001. You couldn’t scripted a better ending to that race at Martinsville. Even the winner couldn’t have been more dramatic. With the schedule for next year and driver changes. Nascar could improve it popularity.

What an amazing closing lap move by the watermelon man!  Even the ex-driver commentators were awe-struck. Hamlin focused on the lack of pit road execution in his post race interview but the white as a ghost look on his face was indicative that he still couldn't believe he'd been snookered like that.

That was an awesome move, using the wall to turn while going full speed around the last corner.  Even the NASCAR/tv computers seemed to have trouble figuring out what happened...

Happy to see Kyle win with RCR. I always thought Gibbs was quick to boot drivers, this is another example.

    • I'm also waiting to see if they confirm Apple CarPlay, because I'm not interested in subscription fees just to use the hardware I already purchased.    In closeups it looks like it gets the Colorado/Canyon center screen based headlight controls which I despise. They also appear to lose all the hard switches for functions like seat heating and cooling, parking sensors, lane control, traction control, etc. which means they're all screen/menu based, so verdict is out on how well those will work with gloves or wet/dirty hands.  Admittedly they don't show the left knee area of the dash, but I don't see hard switches for locker control on the ZR2, and the "mode" switch appears to eliminate the rotary dial with a quick way to access tow/haul.  My 2021 has had multiple screen failures and at times the screen just locks up, goes black, or reboots while driving even after replacement, so loosing the ability to access many of these functions, especially lighting control would be pretty frustrating.   There aren't enough photos or detailed trim details other than one mention of "available microfiber trim" to confirm, but the use of microfiber on the seats and or center console is a deal killer for me.  Just because you drive a ZR2 or High Country, doesn't mean you don't work out of it, and that material is difficult at best to keep clean and looking decent.   Lexus and several other brands are using it on seats, dash, and door panels now, I assume as a cost and weight saving measure,  and it looks horrible 1-2 years into ownership.  I see what appears to be piano black on the doors and center console in some photos, which also has no place in ANY vehicle in my opinion because it mars and scratches too easily, especially for a truck.  Will be interesting to see what GMC comes out with when the Sierra is released as far as materials go.      
    • Im a fan.  Simply moving the screen up helps the look of the interior.  I feel like GM dropped the ball on the current gen having the screen not at the same level as the top of the gauge cluster.  The GMCs look better with the vents above the screen to close that gap.  
    • I hear you, its just not something one would even think of that the new oil in the container isn't filtered to a spec one would expect it to be.    As to a passenger vehicle theme and the maintenance requirement to meet to ensure a warranty is honored, these days with claims of life time transmission fluid on some models and the limited amount of oil changes that would bring one to the end of the factory warranty, that sells vehicles for those that like to hear "easy care maintenance free", but the manufacturer certainly knows different as to what that more than likely means for the longevity of some of the components if given that minimum spec maintenance. Then again I imagine there are a fair number of people that really don't care as long the vehicle gets them a certain number of years down the road because they are the type that want the next new thing, new and improved ... more bells and crap etc on the new one on the show room floor. Manufacturers have learned the phycological game to entice the customer out of their money !
    • Why soooooo many screens? Shall we just replace the windshield with a large plasma?!?!? Besides that I like the looks. And they added back the additional door cubbies,    No SS???
