I think it’s time I start a thread for my favorite races I’ve seen live. What other race to start with than the 2024 Ambetter 400

@Jcheechola @DaSnakeDrake @Hickey93 Yet he manages to wreck himself every other week

@DaSnakeDrake @Hickey93 Larson could drive better than most people itw Don’t have to like him but he’s got talent

“Go back to bed.” “Not now, it was just confirmed that Katherine Legge is doing The Double.” #INDYCAR #INDY500

Nascar fans and their obsession of repeating dates in the same market multiple times a year

@DanielDebo51926 @NASCAR @katherinelegge And yet she’s still 1000x the driver you’ll ever be

@NASCAR @katherinelegge So let me get this straight? She's not going to get wreck one million and a half racecar but two in one day 👍😉🍻

NEWS: She's breaking barriers and making history! @katherinelegge will be the first woman to attempt the #Indy500 and #CocaCola600 Double this Memorial Day Weekend.

@zaneccampbell @nscllc2005 @elliottfilms And so was SVG. Broadcast said they were running within a tenth once McDowell got up to 2nd

@nscllc2005 @elliottfilms true, but McDowell was saving dramatically. Once he got up to the 54 he was saving in case there was a caution to keep his tires as fresh as possible.

it’s hilarious how much they’re glazing van gisbergen as if mcdowell isn’t doing the exact same thing

4.5% chance at the No. 1 pick... RT for good luck 🤞

@Ayyitsashlei @vineypuddles28 Yep! He was the original “Project 91” for Trackhouse iirc He also did some truck races back in the late 00’s

@vineypuddles28 uhhh so i didnt start watching NASCAR till 2023… Raikkonen… as in Kimi Raikkonen?

Not a race result BUT this has to be the most random top 10 running order at a non-drafting track I can recall as of late.

@robertdorazi @LeftMyHeartOnD No but they could’ve included the Gen V characters from the start of the season as they have just as much motive as the boys mcs to want to take down Homelander

@LeftMyHeartOnD You can't run a 5 seasons show then, in the last 2 episodes, bring someone from a totally different show (that was cancelled for a good reason) to defeat an all-powerfull Homelander without being accused of simply insulting the audience !

New running theory is they intentionally excluded the Gen V from the rest of the cast bc of the swag gap in their abilities

@KnicksLoseAgain Everyone got tired of the underdog shtick. It was fine until he won the IC title and then it turned annoying

Not sure how you go from where Sami was in 2023 - hottest babyface in wrestling, main eventing WrestleMania - to whatever the fuck this is but alright then 😭

We traded him for Rob fucking dillingham bro

@ChumBucketDrama Is it really so shocking that people don’t wanna continue watching a different streamer?

Twitch Streamer "Emiru" Facing VIEW-BOTTING Allegations: 8,000+ BOTS TURNED OFF After Raiding Smaller Streamer "YonnaJay" who was Extremely Disappointed. Raiding is a Twitch feature used to redirect a live audience to another channel at the end of a broadcast. "YonnaJay" was initially SURPRISED and happy with the retention, . However, her mood shifted to DISAPPOINTMENT only minutes later as she watched her view count PLUMMET SIMULTANEOUSLY approximately 30-minutes after the raid. "Emiru" is statistically the BIGGEST FEMALE STREAMER on Twitch. Hours Watched (Last 30 Days): 2,138,978 Average Viewers: 16,297 Global Rank: #37 Evidence: Twitch Tracker - "YonnaJay" Stream Data twitchtracker.com/yonnajay/strea… Disclaimer: Twitch Tracker records data points at 10-MINUTE INTERVALS. Because the platform lacks second-by-second updates, a sudden mass exit of viewers may appear as a gradual decline on the graph. This tracking delay can make the time viewers spent in the channel APPEAR LONGER THAN IT ACTUALLY WAS.

@GOWENYT If they keep with the parts store, I SHOULD BE ABLE TO BUY WHATEVER I CAN AFFORD!! Having to buy level by level up until I can’t afford it was the most annoying feature

What feature should be top priority for NASCAR 26 career mode? Silly season gets my vote

@DamnItdale88 And they had weeks to turn back on the deal. It’s horrible PR to continue going through with it AND announce it now

@RealDerek_ They had this lined up BEFORE but ok.

So not only is this guy not talented enough to sniff a cup seat but this is coming after homophobic comments? Yeah ok

Didn’t know Ty Gibbs’ first win would be so popular

@TommyJoeMartins Would this be the same sentiment if your driver wasn’t the only one on the list without stage points?

Stage points reward inconsequential performance. Running 7th on lap 45 shouldn't score points. Only award stage winners 5 points and bring back drama to late race mistakes. It skews the standings away from the ACTUAL RACE RESULTS. Nobody cares who led Q1 of a football game.

@zonewintergreen @rjmanalytics @TommyJoeMartins If a football team is up 14 and their qb goes down, they have ways of managing the lead with the backup, changing the game plan, and the defense. If Larson has a 15 second lead and Cody Ware spins out in a way Larson can’t avoid, his day is just done right there. Not the same

@rjmanalytics @TommyJoeMartins It sounds like we agree? If a team is up after Q1 & players get hurt and they lose, they should get partial credit? If you're running well and a BS caution drops late and you get wrecked you get nothing. You worked the entire race to get up front after overcoming issues.

@EmperorLemon @nascarman_rr Haven’t watched yet but I really hope there’s at least a bit that expresses the talent Dillon does have instead of just showing the wins he did have some luck with

I've spent the last six months working on my longest project to date. A story of order, chaos, and stock car racing. [NEW VIDEO] youtube.com/watch?v=Ie1qFW…

@Drycanister Small team with no time means drawing it for thousands of frames would just be impossible

No, seriously, cuz was it that hard to draw a costume getting torn up?

The amount of hate flooding Twitter right now is truly horrible and I just wanted to respond to some of the same comments being made. “Laufey songs all sound the same.” Yeah, I hate when I mix up “From the Start” with “Sabotage.” Just be honest and admit that you’ve never really taken the time to actually listen to her music or know more than 2 songs of hers. “All Laufey sings about is boys and breakups.” It’s funny how she also sings about friendships, loss, the high standards placed on women, and the insecurities we face, but somehow that’s never mentioned. “Laufey’s ruining jazz.” Everyone has tried to put Laufey into a box of what her music is, but that’s not her. Yes, her music is heavily influenced by jazz—but also pop, classical, rap, and even country. Laufey herself has said she doesn’t want to be labeled into one genre, because it creates a stigma people hold onto. She’s also never claimed to be “saving jazz” either, but let’s not pretend she hasn’t made an impact—more younger audiences are being introduced to it BECAUSE OF HER. And she’s constantly uplifting other jazz and classical musicians in interviews, through her posts, and even on stage, giving them the credit they deserve! If Laufey’s music isn’t for you, then that’s fine don’t listen but to go online and bash someone who has done literally nothing but uplift the music community just because YOU don’t like it, is honestly embarrassing.
