Awesome.

Double Awesome

Good but wrong winner

A wholesome conclusion to this series and dealing with the sportsmans equivalent of cabin fever. The racing we saw feels like the balance between aero push and throttle control is just right like on the fourth generation cars. Great fun to watch, keeps you on your toes, even more fun for the drivers I imagine. And the place looks great at twilight. Hope Darlington upholds this trend.

Someone needs to open this track back up and Cup Series needs to race there again.

Imagine if he had DuPont instead of axalta

Agreed, short tracks are cool but are even better when they’re more rounded/circular.

I mean Texas and homestead were better races and had closer finishes but I can’t wait to race it looks A+ as usual

bye kentucky

This aged very poorly.

They already tried to bring back a track, people showed up for 1 year after begging nascar, then died off again. Those people ruined it

You mean the truck show at Rockingham?

@@ogdrifter9977 First time I saw Joey Logano was at the ARCA race in Rockingham, he won. Was a great race, love that place.

Always wanted to go see a race at Bristol and Wilkesboro. Love the road courses though too; Road Courses and Short Tracks tend to be the most competitive and the most entertaining.

They looked like Zombies!! 😳👍

haha yea eff denny

Oh... victory donuts. o___o

It's ai, kinda how their programed

Just a vocal minority wants this. "Everybody" wanted Rockingham back, but only showed up for one race when they tried. Then gave excuses.

it’s more than what you think, and it could turn into a huge flop if all the money doesn’t pay off well

This is like pulling a car out of a river that's been sitting in its watery grave for 30 years. "Restore it!" enthusiasts say, not understanding the scope of time, labor, and money involved, none of which would ever be recouped. The cost of adding SAFER barriers alone is nearly $2 million. Add to that another $10 million for the track surface. Then there's rebuilding the garages and updating the stands and infield. Speedway Motorsports, track owner, would have a hard time justifying the cost of restoration when most of the current tracks aren't close to filling with fans, including the short tracks... and 2020 could very well end up with Speedway Motorsports recording a financial loss given the craptastic circumstances dealt to it.

Kamz I know the cost will be significant I’m just saying that it needs to be back on the schedule. Is it possible...yes, easy... is a no. However if a whole bunch of people put money together it could get fixed. I think Rockingham is a much much easier option but still pricy

You wouldn't get more than 30k at the race

And yet you can see Denny Hamlin wreck the field once and attempted to wreck Ross Chastain, all in the course of a couple minutes

They can’t use Winston because of the same government guidelines that forced Winston out

umm im new to nascar isnt this just an oval what makes it different from the other tracks

Gokul Krishnan The front stretch is down hill and the back stretch is up hill, but I may have that flipped

It's one of Nascar's most historic tracks, so the history of the place is very important to long-time fans. BUT, what makes this track different from the "cookie cutter" 1.5 miles tracks is that North Wilkesboro was a unique 5/8 mile oval that was not level. The backstretch was sloped uphill while the frontstretch was sloped downhill. There wasn't another track on the circuit like it.

Gokul Krishnan when did you start watching?

Nick Piccolo I watched the Dale Jr video showing them clean up the track for it to be scanned accurately. His verbiage makes it seem like the track won’t be raced on ever again, at least by NASCAR.

RageMonkey yeah I watched it as well. It’s unfortunate

And no stupid stages like in real life

and you won't have to re-pave the track

😂

I'm trying to remember a time weather was a factor that delayed a race there

Short tracks > literally anything else other than road courses > road courses

@Bro Mark It's free to dream :( Rockingham was awesome.

Both are in iRacing so you’re good if you want to race on them.

They aren't going to

They are putting in 10 million for repairs for both

Timothy Chapman: Go to “Out of the Groove” channel he has video for that. Look up “out of the groove NASCAR schedule”

What In Carnation? It really was amazing to see current generation stock cars on such an amazing track.

Bruton smith owned it

The track already appeared as downloadable user-made content in games like NR2003, NR4 and NR3.

Diego Ruiz not lazer scanned though

It's not a video game. It's a sim. Big difference.

Both are video games

@@savagepanda2480 Its both, really

@Anthony Rodriguez you know I looked at his stats and most of his recent DNFs are caused to equipment failure and not him. I think he could be really good if he was given at least a good Xfinity ride. He did finish 5th in 2006 with 9 Top 5s and a whopping 22 top 10s. He should've got a win in hindsight during that season

Every boring cookie cutter oval should be a roval

iRacing and real life busts: Kyle Larson, Daniel Suarez and Bubba Wallace

The Tech From Heaven how is Larson a bust lmao

Hetterman10 R saying the N word

@Neil Rosenau If you think Toni is hot, you need to change your meds.

jonsmovies18fan that doesn’t make him a bust. that just means he had a slip up

He does it alot in real-life also.

Anyone remember a guy named Earnhardt?? That was kind of his signature move and everyone loved him for it now everyone hates on Hamlin for the same thing?

If I knew Hamlin won, I wouldn’t have clicked on it

I agree but this wasn't a legit race in the series. This was a come and have fun, as he said. Nilo points or anything. Probably why. Waste of cleaning the track for a less than 10min video. Disgrace to the track

It's a highlight video. The full race video will be posted at some point.

@@CorbinsDedah no they won't. Look st their past videos. This is a highlights just as the rest of them. Only thing is, this one is 8 min long with like the OP said 2min of racing. Not like the others.

Not really just the season will start.

Riverside was demolished for a shopping center. But if Iracing has access to an old copy of the virtual version it could still happen.

That’s the tv broadcast doing that so the cars don’t lag out

yes it is

yea but a videogame was responsible to bring it back for good tho

Har har har. You give NASCAR fans a bad name.

@@UrlacherBears54 How so?
