Nascar 2020

That would be so "apples and oranges" as to be totally meaningless...

I agree ...

Once an Indy car gets tapped, it falls apart ....

eRace was interesting on FS1. Classic nascar on Fox this afternoon. 1986 short track race at Richmond.

I thought the E race was OK until Junior let Hamlin win[My opinion].

My sister claims Hamlin bumped him. I didn't see any contact. Maybe that's the way iCars are?

I thought it was fun and at times forgot it was all done with computers.

The commentary was funny at times. "Here's Regan Smith at the virtual care center".

Junior said he didn't push it as hard as he could have, so I think he let him win since they were giving money to the Homestead area if Hamlin won.

Thats a typical reply from Jr whenever he doesn't win when he should have.

What does Junior care? He's been retired for a couple years now and he and Hamlin have been racing these simulators against each other for more than a decade.

He doesn't ...
It's just a response that he would have on the track as well.

In any case if it's on I will watch it again.

Classic nascar on Fox this afternoon. 1986 short track race at Richmond.

I was going to check out the classic race, since it was cool that it would be on network TV, but here in Charlotte of all places, the local FOX affiliate chose to show infomercials instead.

I watched the iRacing event for a little while. Its an interesting novelty as far as broadcasting it and running with many of the top drivers under the current circumstances, but honestly, I didn't get much out of it. I certainly get the realism and complexity of iRacing compared to simple everyday video games. I also understand the enjoyment and respect the talent of the participants...but I've never found the appeal of the e-sports thing as a spectator sport. I guess that even extends to racing, too. As a lifelong car nut, I guess I'm a fan of auto racing as much for the cars, as in REAL cars, as anything else. Maybe that's just me.

Me too

Clint Bower is going to have a nice job commentating when he decides to retire. Someone is going to hire him.

 

[Partysox]

This is not Nascar but no INDY 500 till August and that's a maybe.
