Wondering when California will have a LA 500.
Pit stops will be tire and battery changes.

I haven’t watched in years. The politics and silly rules sucked the life out of it. For me the only car racing that’s interesting is at the local 1/4 mile dirt track, especially the 360/400 sprint cars. Drag racing is cool too. A good fit with my short attention span.
I love drag racing. In my younger days a bunch of us would go down to Edgewater drag strip in Cincinnati when the big names would race. Saw one of the first jet powered cars there.
Always wanted to go to the Gator Nationals, but still haven't. No excuse since it's only 77 miles from my house.
It is morphing into demolition derby.

Ruthie's dad and uncle owned, maintained and alternated driving a dirt track car at Northern Kentucky Speedway. Her BIL owned and drove one there as well. A fun family thing.
When they start racing REAL stock cars again, I might start watching again. Not until then.
My folks went to some kinda dirt track racing in Lawrenceburg Indiana a lot.
If I remember right, it was the weird cars with big spoiler things on top of them. I was pretty young.
and Unlimited hydros need to go back to piston boats. those hair dryer powered ones just ain't natural.

I agree! Love the sound of those big Allisons and Merlins.

The segmenting of EVERY race into basically 3 separate races pretty much destroyed the whole endurance concept of the sport. 600 mile start to finish racing was gone.
