This being my first nascar race ive ever been to and finnaly finding money to. This was awsome. Being a short track kid and racing late models this was amazing. No bad seat anywhere i sat and it was so cool.

[@kevinramsey417]

That was fun. Let's see more stadium races. This reminded me of the Dodge Raceway Stadium fantasy track in the old NASCAR EA games. Let's get more stadium races on the schedule. Imagine a race INDOORS like the Superdome or even AT&T stadium. I love the new cars but the real test is going to be at Daytona.

[@racejunkie566]

If you thought that was a cool race then go to a local short track race you'll love it. Just get online and literally look up racetracks and go check a few out in your area period dirt track racing is a lot of fun also but if you liked the class you're going to want to go see superstocks or late models at a local short track. You can thank me at the end of this coming summer

[@racejunkie566]

I realize I came off kind of condescending I'm sure you're aware that there is racing out there. I'm in Ohio and I love going to the short tracks and watching super late models

@@Piggy-0145 it'd be pretty cool to see them big ass stock cars try to get around Long Beach! There is a mile-and-a-half track in California somewhere I think and I know for a fact you guys got short tracks everywhere. I like to watch the supermodifieds you guys race out west

[@StevenWatters]

I can tell you BFM, those were such funny jinx's that had me laughing... My favorite jinx that you made was the Tyler Reddick and Chase Briscoe one. Those two were funny af. I watched the clash part unfortunately which was the biggest part of the race, but I enjoyed the race even my favorite driver Austin Dillon made it into the top 5 right there, not a bad run for the 3 team. A top 5 run is pretty much good whenever you have a decent car. Anyways that was honestly such a good video, keep up the good work. And welcome to the new era of NASCAR, Next Gen baby!

[@yakul4410]

Very fun. I think Nascar did a brilliant job organising this, especially with the stars (big up Ice Cube!) and the advertising (mainly showing drama and action, not just big crashes). If Daytona is a good race and the package isn't dogshit, this could be the start of a great era for Nascar. And remember, if the Coliseum worked Nascar would consider races in London, NY, Japan etc.

[@drewgibbons6860]

Best race I've seen in a long time. I'm a fan since the late 90s that had kinda fallen out of love with the sport in the gen 6 era since the racing got worse (even COT racing was better the cars were just ugly) and the big personalities (Smoke, Rusty, Robbie Gordon, Jeff Gordon, Dale Sr/Jr) left too. But I feel the love again after this weekend. We need points paying 1/4 mile tracks in nascar tbh or at least 3/8 mile. Should be 3 or 4 of these tracks with some character instead of cookie cutters. We need more people like Blaney going after each other. Also realized I don't mind stage racing if there's a halftime show. That's this weekend taught me. This is entertainment. This is what this sport is.

[@bradsanders407]

It sucked. Gimmicky af. Go to an actual quarter mile track. This was terrible.

I think the event turned out very well concerning how worried I was about certain issues.

[@BlueJimmie48Fan]

For not one, not two, but *THREE* cars to drop out of the race due to mechanical failures in the span of *2 LAPS* is definitely a cause for concern. Also, take a good look at how badly damaged Justin Haley's car was when he got sent into the inside wall..... ..... *and that's only at 50mph* Long story short, there is a lot of work to be done before this next gen car is ready.

[@JeffWeselyan]

I agree with u there

[@Director_Orson_Krennic]

I agree, though do remember that inside wall was solid concrete, not a SAFER barrier, so all the energy dissipation had to go into the car instead of foam barriers in the wall, too

[@KevinHarvickisnothappy4]

@@Director_Orson_Krennic I feel awful for Haley had that been a safer barrier he would have a few bits of damage but his car became junk

[@chelseawolfe5289]

I'm addition to being solid concrete the inside wall was made of jersey barriers rather than a permanent wall so when he hit it they shifted leaving a harsh edge at the junction between the two segments. It even broke the concrete so I don't see that wreck as an indication of a big problem with the cars. I did see one wreck into the outside wall that didn't look too bad but they towed the car off which had me concerned, but I also saw a ton of harsh aggressive racing, lots of rubbing the outside wall, and no cut tires from fender damage. Ryan Blaney tagged it pretty decently and had either a cut tire or suspension damage but I'm hopeful that these new cars can take more of a beating than the old ones

[@andrewhlnojos5419]

That's what I've been trying to tell nascar ..but they wont listen😖

[@SouthbaySpeaks]

It's like watching a giant-sized slot car race. The track was too small, the turns too tight and the "racing" (such as it was) was entirely too slow. But what really blew me away were all the rave reviews it got. I guess some people these days are very easily amused.

[@blackfx4x4]

Thanks for the recap! I had the race on yesterday while doing a few things around the house, and missed a few things you covered. I'm a very casual nascar fan and watcher, but very much a motorsports fan. This was a very different and interesting race I enjoyed watching yesterday when I had a few minutes to watch it.

Joey Logano: Is this the mini Martinsville? Roger Penske: Yes it is and you escaped the Los Angeles mayhem with a win.

[@Mattgotsdagreenlight]

The very first stadium racing was shown in NASCAR chase for the cup 2005. When racing in a Dodge stadium wherever it's a single race or fight to the top or season mode it can get pretty chaotic with the pit stops which can cause a caution if you collide into someone or it's coming out of pits or coming in

[@berke2336]

I just can't get over how much better the new gen car looks. Last gen still looked like they slapped modern car decals on a 96 monte carlo

[@06racing]

The drive line failures might be due to the sharp turns. More forces through the drive line than full throttle on a large banked turn of Daytona.

This was certainly an interesting event which I sadly only caught the end of live. That track reminded me of a paperclip, I'm so used to sprint cars on a 1/4 mile that watching stock cars spin around them was kinda comedic to me. I wonder what the future of stadium races will be.

[@CoderatheGreat]

I didn't watch this race and I was skeptical about whether or not having such a small track was going to work for NASCAR personally. Either it would be too slow and therefore boring, or it would be crazy but also a chaotic mess. From what I'm hearing it seems it like they did the best of both worlds. Organized, yet thrilling. Good on them for being able to pull it off.

We'll need to wait until the third year to know if this is actually a success. Next year will probably see a decrease in attendance and TV ratings because the novelty factor will have worn off. If viewership stabilizes in the third year and the numbers are still respectable, I'll call this a success. If the interest falls off from year to year, then this was just a one-shot experiment. Until we see the results from the third year, I'm going to be skeptical this is a sustainable event.

[@MarshallDog]

I feel really bad for anyone who didn't know about the heat races paying full price for what seemed to be one hour of racing. Then again it's not like NASCAR wasn't advertising the format. I think back to a lot of short track races I've been to and it's weird how few people only show up for the feature and don't bother to watch the heat races. Unless it's something like the Thompson 300 (to shout out my favorite event from the 2021 season) you miss most of the racing action if you don't watch the heat/consolation races. I guess it's possible most casual NASCAR fans or first-timers just don't understand the concept. Maybe NASCAR did have a blind spot in that regard relying on the "old school" mystique of heat races rather that really hyping them up. I certainly knew I had to watch the heat races and was really mad when I found out my DVR didn't record them. Thankfully this thing called "fubo" did. Anyway, something to fix for next year. Or maybe just make the feature 200 laps. That's only another 10-15 minutes at those speeds, I could have watched that.
