Lol. So only 2 cars fail to qualify? It's a good thing the Duels are for points, because else why bother?

No I didn't know and google doesn't tell me that when searching images and when searching every image i'm not going to do research to see if someone passed away in that particular incident. I think it's fine.

I'd have thought it was pretty obvious that image wasn't going to have a happy story attached to it.

Perhaps instead of trying to deflect the blame to google you should just say sorry and remove it, after all I bet if someone had posted a picture of Las Vegas 2012 in a similar vein, you'd have got on your high horse about how inappropriate it was and called them out on it. Just because it's not motorsport related doesn't make it "fine". Surely there was a thousand other images out there that you could have used, that were either more relevant (plenty of pics of ARCA drivers doing dumb things around) or more funny (see codename's example).

Dude relax, I said didn't know and I removed it. There's a lot of fake images out there. Too many for one person to know what is fake and what is real. To think everyone knows the story behind every image out there is a little naive. Regardless, I'm sorry, it's down, done, moving back on topic...

Impressive... 2017 Speedweeks thread has more discussion of a drunk slamming into a bike race than it does racing at Daytona... At this point anyway.

Quite apt given the general state of lethargy surrounding the 2017 Monsters Ball Power Team Energy Geico Insurance Safety Clean 2 Girls 1 Cup Series.

The ARCA first practice speeds definitely indicate the tightest, most competitive field in recent memory. Final practice not so much, not as many cars went out in the draft. First time in years AT LEAST 36 cars should keep up with the lead draft.

As I heard on the radio this morning, I did not know they reduced the plate size on the Cup cars... perfect way to increase passing.............

I would like to be the first to back up a stream request causing a thread to temporarily divert to of the moment stream demands.

I liked the plate package just fine as it was last year. Less throttle response doesn't sound appealing to me.

Also, watching the 22 make laps out there and it seems to me the rear spoiler is bigger than I remember it being at the plate tracks last season. Ugh x 1000.
