nascar championships have (somehow) hit a new low

[@SirKingBoo21]

We all laughed at him when he said nascar was gonna die after 2025. Now I feel that he's 100% right.

[@runrafarunthebestintheworld]

I sure didn't but sure seems more possible now than ever before.

[@number1musichater430]

If they don't change things, it definitely will

[@H0LLOW_PRIV]

How though

[@Griffdawg]

Thank you for your brutal honesty

[@bonkerjumper9166]

I hope you see this. Your videos are great in my opinion,and they helped me get through rough times in middle school. And the atmosphere of them are quite comfy. I hope everything in your life gets better soon and you find a spark of motivation to make videos again. And your feelings are valid as well. Thanks KG

[@hajimoses1548]

NASCAR isn’t ready for how much apathy they created,I told someone earlier this week they can pretend it doesn’t exist,but eventually that turns into people not caring enough to watch and we now nascar is afraid of that no matter what they say

[@Highline_29_Designs]

Watching NASCAR is literally the embodiment of a toxic and abusive relationship where you just keep going back for more. I have said time and time again that I'm done with this shit and yet every Sunday I go back for more suffrage and abuse. I don't know if it's because I keep lying to myself that one day it will eventually get better, or if it's because I know if I let it go a piece of me that I've carried for the last 17 years just withers away all for nothing. I don't know anymore, but damnit I'm tired. I definitely know how you feel.

[@jc1424]

@@Highline_29_Designs not watching the playoffs has been a healthy decision for me mentally, would recommend

[@tarnhold514]

I feel your pain. Being a fan feels so meaningless. Watching every week is useless because I know that race doesn't mean anything. I want my sport to mean something again

[@AidensAircraftChannel88588]

The Xfinity championship made me heal a bit then the Cup Series opened the wound right back up

[@supertornadogun1690]

Xfinity series is best series

[@jc1424]

my cat puked on my Joey Logano shirt Monday morning, that's fair lmao

[@runrafarunthebestintheworld]

😅

[@jakekoehler1]

I've been waiting for this video!! I hope you are doing OK man!!!

[@TheCamSays]

Is anyone else just… tired? Exhausted? Not feeling it now Mr. Krabs?

[@GatoradeCupSeriesX94]

I was getting angrier and stressed ever since the disastrous Nashville finish… It only got worse and worse!

[@ChrisT.84fan.]

KG, im not going anywhere man. I wish I would've been a member faster. Your videos keep me going. Take what time you need man, this year has been shit to me to.

[@MarkOliveras215]

This man is a legend of KZbin! Never change KG! All hail Kamikaze! As a fan since 2001, I feel your pain and can understand why a majority of the fanbase and community are either watching less NASCAR and leaving altogether. Won’t hold that against them but for me, yes I’m fed up, angry and frustrated with the many flaws of the sport but at the same time even with all that, I love it way too much to leave altogether myself so as much as I don’t wanna believe I’m saying this, I will be back next year and beyond and continue to watch until either the sport is dead or I’m dead whichever comes first. I’m glad you’re back and that was one spicy opening FMV sequence my friend 😉👍🤜🤛

[@KyBuschOwnsYou]

I don’t even know what we’re even doing at this point either KG

[@FRESHRacing]

Nascar aside man I wish the best for you. Been watching you for like 10 years and you were a huge inspiration for me to try nascar content. I don’t blame you for wanting to quit honestly, the sport seems like it’ll only get worse. But keep your head up man, just hope 2025 will be a better year for you

[@JayT10200]

THIS WAS MORE SAD & DEPRESSING THAN I THOUGHT IT WOULD BE ESPECIALLY TOWARDS THE END. I REALLY THOUGHT YOU WERE GONNA RUNN & JUMP OUT OF THE WINDOW

[@Railroadracer49]

I was waiting for this guy to show up I’m not even going to care about the championship anymore Just my drivers winning is all I care about at this point I’m done with this playoff system

[@Ultimate23Dragon]

I only watched 1 NASCAR race the entire; The Daytona Truck race, & that was only because Johnny Sauter was in it. Even then I couldn't tell you the last time previously that I watched a NASCAR race flag-to-flag. I've tuned out for so long because the Jim France regime cares about racing even less than the Brian France regime. I'm honestly now afraid to feel any genuine emotion regarding NASCAR because over 99% of the time it's gonna be anger because of something absurdly stupid. The less than 1% that should be happiness is now just 'meh'. When Brad Keselowski won Darlington, all I could muster was "Ahh. Good for him. I knew deep down he still had it." ... I didn't even feel any excitement. Just 'meh' happiness at best. Modern era NASCAR is so bad I brought back the #BoycottNASCAR campaign, because the people who run NASCAR now do not care. So why should we?... If NASCAR goes bankrupt & ceases to exist like SRX did, I'd feel genuine happiness for all of auto racing. Actual racing fans should support any & every racing series that is *not* NASCAR. Because as long as the France/Kennedy family still remain in power, there is no hope for auto racing's future. We need to hit them where it hurts them most... their wallets & the ratings! Do not watch NASCAR. Do not support NASCAR. #BoycottNASCAR

[@Ez-zy9dj]

The problem is if they go back to season long points, or any other format for that matter, it invalidates almost every champion going back to 2014.

[@ic3man]

Not a big deal

[@brandondavis8790]

Good

[@firstlast19956]

Those championships had been invalidated ever since 2014 which is ironic about your statement

[@GodzillaGaming111]

Get this man a crown, bro. Great content and great video. I haven't been a fan for too long (2015 is when I started watching the radioactive videos), but long enough to where I can say that I am done with NASCAR. I'll still watch Xfinity since the car is just perfection, but I am not watching trucks and Cup (unless it's a big race) ever again unless they get rid of the playoffs.

[@CameronGreenwoodCramp]

Great video. :)

[@mrgeebers]

Watch NASCAR somehow gives us an even worse points format and make the cars even worse. I cannot say that I have hope for the sport anymore. I gained a little bit, but once you notice how every single moment is manufactured fast food junk, it becomes more and more apparent thats going to take a miracle for NASCAR to actually be saved.

[@IanTheMotorsportsMan_YT]

In all seriousness, the past 2 management for the past 2 decades continues to be awful

[@IanTheMotorsportsMan_YT]

Alternate Title: It’s over. thanks for watching III

[@SpaceMetalFerrari248]

Jimmie's last 2 seasons > Joey Logano's "third championship" season. Tell me how this format is not a broken farcical mess.

[@supertornadogun1690]

The way they talk about it almost makes me think the tv networks have them in a stranglehold about changing the format.

[@keithmillerjr2825]

I am an Allgaier fan as well. It's extremely difficult being a fan for sure. Every Championship 4 finale he has competed for has ripped my heart out lots of times. It was awesome to see him finally get one this year though.

[@andrewdotmp4]

imagine if zane smith remembered he had talent and passed logano and won at nashville

[@GatoradeCupSeriesX94]

It just gets worse!

[@Ultimate23Dragon]

#BoycottNASCAR is what you're trying to say.

[@Ultimate23Dragon]

I was wondering when we'd get this...

[@1400hpnextgen7]

The format since 2004 has robbed the most consistent drivers with the highest average finish. Its also a slap in the face to all champions before 2004. The hall of fame is compromised. Comparing joey loganos 3 playoff championships to anybodys before 2004 is blasphemy.

[@GatoradeCupSeriesX94]

Ratings are in the tank Product is pathetic NextGen is a disaster Format is dogshit Sport’s future in doubt The races have become scripted Leadership is a theatre of clowns Sponsors leaving in droves #EVERYTHINGISAWESOME The KamikazeGames was right about everything your is back on!

[@Cramhead43]

I just don’t get it man, such a waste of what was even vaguely recently a decent sport. Thanks for the video, big appreciate.❤

[@brentruvio6556]

Only thing that gave me solace this past weekend was Justin winning the Xfinity championship. Finally. Last time I was that excited for a champion was probably Chase Elliott in 2020. Before that, Chase Elliott's Xfinity championship in 2014. Before that, Jeff Gordon in 2001.

[@rogergavind6279]

things are looking grim

[@CatGoomba64]

At least Allgaier finally won Xfinity? Man I hate this format so much

[@runrafarunthebestintheworld]

Yep KamikazeGames got his Xfinity championship prediction right for once.

[@daneamann6225]

NASCAR is the Star Wars of the sports world. A once absolutely fall on the sword, fight for the sanctity of-level loyal ass fanbase, turned completely apatetic and uncaring. It's really just sad.

[@ic3man]

Even if NASCAR HQ gets January 6th’ed, they’d still defend this format. Great explanation as always, Kamikaze.

[@1400hpnextgen7]

The intro and outro was funny af 😂

[@WhatiFRacing]

haven't seen the video but i'm getting food for this moment.

[@ic3man]

32:00 Good News, NASCAR have allowed 23XI/FRM to race bare minimum without charters since they removed the rule for unchartered teams to sign agreements to run without a charter.

[@heemano2]

At this point, the only way to watch is to pretend the system doesn’t exist. Kyle Larson is the 2024 Champion, or Tyler Reddick, maybe Chase Elliot from his consistency, but instead we got a guy with a 17th average finish in it. He should’ve been out at the 12th round.

[@neutral.natural]

Christopher Bell is the real cup series champion.

[@ticcytoccy69420]

Man, I love your video. Admittedly the ones you tend to rant, them most. But even still, videos like your top 10 worst drivers videos and yearly season predictions live rent free in my head. I hope you can restore your faith in god. Try going to church or a bible study just 1 hour a week. Give it a chance. Either way, take it easy man.

[@seandamenacee4767]

Bruh I love justin allgaier. He fumbled so many wins this year it’s crazy. I’m glad he does have a championship even thought he wasn’t the best. Am I bad for feeling that way?

[@Atari2600Gamer]

It's a shame Chandler Smith is getting booted from JGR. He had a lot of good runs in that 81 car

[@Massachamp08]

There are good reasons he's getting booted, mainly lack of money, lack of loyalty, and having a shitty attitude.

[@ImnotCadenyt]

Nascar championships in the same exact format: Truex:1 Logano:3 Yea I think I know who the better driver is

[@Cherokee_Kid_82]

Not a Logano fan, but you’re wearing an Allgaier shirt…..so yeah, forgive me for not listening to the full video.

[@KamikazeGames]

lol

[@firstlast19956]

Why couldn't we just make it 2 wins to clinch a playoff spot, make the regular season champ an automatic round of 12 lock in with a bit of a fair points gap and the rest can get in the playoffs on points??? The defenders of this year's champion making the stupid stick and ball comparisons of Logano being a "10-6 team upsetting the Patriots" um You do realize you're technically defending a 6-11 team in Logano right? Would you really want bad teams getting a participation trophy in the NFL? Why does everyone want to cheapen championships? What a snowflake society anymore!
