NASCAR says Cleetus McFarland has not been approved to run the Talladega O’Reilly race in a few weeks.
He is still approved for short track races in that series but they want to see him run more first before going to bigger tracks.
NASCAR’s John Probst via the sanctioning body’s “Hauler Talk” podcast: “We're all huge Cleetus fans. We all watch his videos and are certainly very appreciative of everything he's done in our sport and will continue to do in our sport. He is approved right now for O'Reilly Series short tracks, which means he's good for all of ARCA, all of Truck, and then O'Reilly up through the short tracks. We'd like to see more out of Cleetus in the short tracks. So we're not saying no, but there is more that we would like to see out of Cleetus before we would approve him for Talladega.”

@racingthought1 @bobpockrass If that’s the case good riddance.
English

@bobpockrass If I’m NHRA I’m capitalizing on this right away. How they didn’t snag him up is beyond me

@PitViolation @nascar_opinion No we don’t. NASCAR doesn’t need to become the WWE of motorsports.
English

@nascar_opinion Do you realize how good that would be for the sport if the Paul brothers
Were to race in a lower series. We actually need this to happen.

When Jake Paul makes the jump, yall keep this same energy.

@lucas_1k_ @nascar_opinion @NASCAR Isn’t this series what that is for ? So many drivers in cup, past and present, have said there is zero translation from truck series to cup or arca to cup and the best way is Oreilly.

@TrishCote4 @nascar_opinion They were also in an equipment that was a fraction of the quality Cleetus was in. If those guys behind him were in an RCR car like Cleetus would they have finished 32nd 4 laps down? The answer is no.
English

@nascar_opinion 6 guys with boat loads of experience over Cleetus finished behind him...... should we shit on them, and tell them they don't belong in NOAPS as well??? Enough of this shit already! Cleetus was cleared by nascar to race, deal with it.
English

People don't "hate" Cleetus.
But he's been rushed up to the 2nd highest level of stock car racing in just over a year.
He's great for the sport, bad for the approval process/standards. We've got guys that have raced for years who don't get those opportunities.

What’s the real reason people don’t like Cleetus? I want to know. I think it’s badass. You all would die to be in his shoes.

@MartinBallew4 @nascar_opinion Ty Gibbs has raced since he was a little kid, terrible comparison.
English

@nascar_opinion We’re was this when Ty Gibbs was rushed up the ladder if I’m not mistaken there was nothing said about that
English

@imsaracefan9 @BHill1417 @Noah_Lewis1 @DGIveyNASCARFan If those 6 drivers were in RCR equipment like Cleetus would they have finished that bad?
English

@BHill1417 @Noah_Lewis1 @DGIveyNASCARFan What do you have to say to the 6 drivers he finished ahead of? They lost to a guy making his first start.
English

Cleetus McFarland climbs out of the car and celebrates that even though he struggled at times, they didn’t mess up anyone’s race and he learned a lot.
Here’s what he had to say:

@JessieMart16250 @ItalianArkie We don’t! BBN went out of their way to the point of going to our game against TCU last year at TCU to just root against Coach Cal and you call in to our sports talk shows. You guys are butthurt he broke up with you and moved on to a better program.
English

@theaciddonkey @ItalianArkie My point is, why do yall care so much? Why do so many of us care about yall? You’re just another sec team who used to be good and who’s decent now. It’s our ex, it’s your new boyfriend. You got the guy. move on Let us be sad and then when yall lose next game, you can be sad too
English

@JessieMart16250 @ItalianArkie There’s always next year for yall! Have a good offseason!
English

@ItalianArkie I BEG YOU TO THINK ABOUT ANYTHING ELSE THAN UK. We don’t hate him. Yall are just easier to please and that’s ok. I pity cal cause he has to live in a state known for bad microwavable chicken and the skankiest store chain of all time. He hates it there😂
English

@NoEscalators Maybe just maybe, it wasn’t a Cal problem but a Kentucky problem all along?
English

@SturnioloLisa @CharlieMarlow_ @Kenny_Wallace There is a difference between a hard racing wreck and running out of talent wreck. Cleetus has run out of talent several times already. He couldn’t even run his test at rockingham by himself cleanly.
English

@CharlieMarlow_ @Kenny_Wallace I like Freddie a lot. My boyfriend got to hang out with him and TJ for a little while after a race a couple of years ago. I understand his concerns; however I think his argument is a tad weak as the most experience drivers cause major wrecks every week. Cleetus increases fan base
English

@Simulatedinc @CharlieMarlow_ @Kenny_Wallace Toni Breidinger has more instagram followers than Cleetus, should she get a cup ride?
English

@CharlieMarlow_ @Kenny_Wallace lot of hate coming from influencers and "media" of course they want to send him back dude has close to over 9 million followers on 3 platforms while even some of the biggest will NEVER see half of that and you know how those people are
English

@Kenny_Wallace @NASCAR Cleetus fans are some of the most obnoxious fanbase. Know nothing of the sport but all of a sudden are self proclaimed experts and are more toxic than any other drivers fan base could dream of being.
English


@PPistone @KevinFowlerJr @DaleJr I say give him a chance to prove himself. If it doesn’t work out then it doesn’t work out. I was initially on the side of he’s not ready or qualified, but there are drivers currently in the NOAPS that are doing the same thing everyone thinks he is going to do.
English

@KevinFowlerJr @DaleJr And all points we brought up on the show today - but the question remains even with that in the mix along with just 6 national series starts is that enough to be approved to run in NASCAR’s number 2 division?
English

To me @DaleJr so far has been the only one that has actually provided some real insight to the Cleetus situation. Everybody just sees that he’s approved and gets all up in arms, but Dale talked about how just by signing this deal with RCR, he’s going to be able to get in the SIM and learn way more than he would driving a full Arca season. To me, it’s not about just him running an O’Reilly series race. It’s about him being self-aware that he needs to improve and finding ways to do so. During that conversation, he said that they were able to overlay his SIM with Jesse Love’s SIM and he could see the difference in what Jesse was doing and make adjustments and immediately he shaved two tenths off his lap time. It’s not gonna happen right away, but if his goal is to improve as a race car driver in NASCAR, the only way he is going to do that is to keep learning. He also said he’s purchasing a late model stock car so that he can get laps in at his own track because he understands that he doesn’t have enough seat time to learn the race craft like he needs to. @TheMikeBagley @PPistone #TMDNASCAR

@TeaMan35 @FreddieKraft This is about NASCAR not Crown Vics.
English

@FreddieKraft “Hey guys Cody ware would outrun Cleetus in these Motorsport series” okay? Cleetus would out drive him in every single driving category there is… shoot even in the sky and water. Go to bed old man.
English

@HaterReport Yall need some help. Educate yourself before making assumptions. Stop over sexualizing everybody and everything.
English

@agentsmith885 @RyanW_Design Except NASCAR tells drivers what to do post race, including where they park on pit road.
Failure to listen to NASCAR results in a penalty. Yeah, let’s do that. It will help you maintain sponsors. 🙄

@WisnoskiEthan @EricEstepp17 10 to go and we go to commercial?!
English

@Bernard0PG @nascar_opinion Wow. What happened to the democrat party that was for peace, acceptance, and love? Now it has turned into if you don’t agree with them you hope they’re assassinated, you burn down cities when you don’t get your way, and openly applaud violence?
English

@nascar_opinion The issue is he WAS harming people.
I don't get it? How does no one on the right get this???
The left isn't bothered about the death in the slightest because Charlie Kirk is one of the people that's probably cause the most death and misery for Americans in recent years
English

Listen, I wasn't a Charlie Kirk guy.
I agreed with some of his ideas, disagreed with others.
It doesn't matter. He wasn't harming people. He didn't deserve to die.
He has the right to say & think what he wants.
