Kyle Larson Wins Chili Bowl, Controversy? | FloRacing Issues | San Diego Supercross Recap

[@NormShaver]

Loved the Supercross content addition.

[@RolandRaceNews2345]

I’ve only had two issues in my 7+ years with Flo. Florence a few months back and last night. Both had well over 100k viewers.

[@Laneyoung-g2v]

Larson is damn good but got lucky that the caution flew right when he was getting passed 2 separate times. Better to be lucky than good sometimes

[@ChrisS-oo6fl]

The first one wasn’t a lucky caution. The first instance he was lucky because the car kept moving forward and didn’t stall not the timing of the yellow. The yellow was already flying because of the lapped car comb down track and was a pretty standard deal. The second was a lucky break associated with the timing of a yellow. Without the yellow Larson would have been beaten off of exit without momentum but, it wouldn’t have completely kιlled him. He would have crossed over the back stretch and rotated off the top of 3/4, regained momentum and we would have seen a good close battle at the finish. Just look how much ground he made up on bell the last event as he’s notorious for late race charges, running down the leader and coming back from mistakes on dirt. His gap alone tells us the difference in speed, even in dirty air from lapped traffic. He made multiple mistakes off exit of four but recovered every time re-gapping.

[@botabs.8247]

Pursley knocked the banner down the lap before so realistically the caution should have been thrown then. Larson benefits from this by almost wrecking? It was the banner that almost wrecked Larson and would've gave pursley the lead. 55 laps next year for sure. It was a very blsnd chili bowl but great to watch the domination if youre a fan of that.

[@austinallen625]

Bland 😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@miket6350]

Larson has been very lucky and also very unlucky. This may have been lady luck making up for the 2024 2nd Kansas cup race where he ran over debris, from the lead, and finished p26. Or 2021 Pocono, a tire going down on the final turn, from the lead, and finishes p9. Sometimes he makes his own luck but I'm not talking about those times.

[@nathan1sixteen]

They had been trigger happy on the caution button all week. There were numerous times the caution light came on because IT LOOKED like a wreck was happening, but the wreck just simply never developed. They didn’t send any of the drivers/cars to the rear for those

[@ChrisS-oo6fl]

It’s irrelevant the caution was for the banner nor the wall ride or possible wreck. Larson was not only squared up but already attempting to position the car for rotation of the entry before the lights came on. If it was in response the wall ride the light would have lit while Larson was still sideways on the front stretch. The real “controversy” is and only could be about of Larson should be charged with the caution for banner which isn’t how the industry operates. Never has. It would be a travesty of it had. Even if an official through a yellow mistakenly it’s behind unacceptable to charge a competitor with that yellow. When officials are unsure it’s only accepted to revert to he transponder and timing loop or physical running order at the time of the light. People with a gripe don’t understand the sport or are just competitors with obvious bias.

[@MikeKalasnik]

They had issues earlier in the week at the Chili Bowl where it just dipped to black randomly for an hour or two. Then it was fine. They had no issues that I saw during the races in the Dome in St Louis. I also find it odd they have started to struggle during their marquee races. The racing season never ends with Flo, but they need to find some time to do some major upgrades to handle the traffic.

[@Tom-jy3jd]

KLR is badass and a lot of folks are very jealous

[@kurtnielsen6684]

Speaking of Supercross, you might as well interview AP Aaron Plessinger because he’s a cowboy hat wearing cowboy boot and jeans as normal dress attire because he’s a normal human being and he’s got a gigantic following on social media and at the regular races. Do a five minute interview with him and you watch how many extra views you get And his personality is infectious.

[@jonjackson6245]

Stoked on the SX coverage!

[@justinyoung109]

that was hilarious that Flo got a warning that something got unplugged lol. Was like being at work on a Tuesday lol. Loved the supercross addition and I hope Champ Off Road, Rallycross, or maybe the aforementioned Monster Jam can show up here as spring rolls in

[@Ka_Gg]

In terms of Larson and the banner caution, let's not forget that the booth was talking about the banner a few laps before mentioning we should get a caution.

[@davids5006]

The "gravedigger" comment had rolling 🤣

[@midnight-2021]

Controversy will be the norm with gambling coming to this sport.

[@ariansmovies]

Go Roczen Go! Also mad love and respect for Tomac. Hopefully he will hold off Jett Lawrence and Chase Sexton to win his final Supercross title. 2025 SX title is going to be fun with those three headed monsters. Can't wait!

[@Ka_Gg]

I could be wrong, but I think on KZbin you can have people pay to be members on your channel and keep viewings private for just them. Maybe Flo racing could do that although it would probably cost them a lot of money but the infrastructure is there

[@sagethevvitch]

So years and years ago, Flo had a streaming service for Pro Wrestling shows and it was also garbage. Hate to see that things haven't changed.

[@BrandonThompson51]

Please cover more supercross

[@brakehard]

If the people want it I’ll talk about it each weekend

[@MartinMcelhaney]

Thanks. I'm convinced on not buying Flo Racing and just stick to watching their free KZbin content. =)

[@busher69]

What ever it takes to keep the track from takin' rubber. Hats off to the track prep guys. Great track all week. Don't know what to say about Flo. Most races are OK although I get so pissed when their camera guys zoom in on the lead one or 2 cars - I just don't get it. As for not having capabilities for big shows. There's no excuse for that. Looks like they want to play in big leagues with minor league equipment.

[@fredneal9639]

Love the supercross content

[@dylanperdue531]

At least floracing streamed the race on KZbin

[@AaronASi]

I cant get on board with the Flo hate. Issues are few and far between. When there is an issue they do everything within reason to make it right. I really dont understand complainong about ALL the money though. For less than $200 you get the chili bowl, the world, the dream, high limit sprint cars, the whole usac schedule, mosy of the arca schedule, lucas oil, the dome, snowball derby, and weekly racing from everywhere. Just to name like half the content? Who's better? These places that charge you $50 to listen to a PA announcer and a web cam? I understand that the entire app crashing sucks. The dudes working to fix it on a saturday night probably agree. KZbin can handle it? Sure, but Flosports vs. google is kind of a silly comparason isnt it?

[@rich873]

Love Flow

[@TJracing99]

this is america people just complain constantly just ignore it

[@kylenogle15]

Did you hear Dale talk about the Flo situation after the South Carolina 400 on DJD, It wasn't just a Flo problem everything at the track went down. Before you say "well then the track needs to get better infrastructure." How are they supposed to do that, unless they have Dale run every week, they aren't gonna be able to come up with the money to make it bulletproof. You also forgot to mention Gateway Dirt Nationals in December, another big event that had zero problems. Gotta look at the positive side man, we pay $170 for 25+ massive events & thousands of other races that is insanely cheap per event.

@@BarnburnerGaming I'm aware. They won't because morons are paying horrendous prices. Until they take a big hit, nothing will change.

[@kurtnielsen6684]

Yeah, no one‘s doping the tires so you could easily go 55 laps and have no rubber on it. That’s a no-brainer. Everybody knew why it rubbered up in the past

[@bluesman.18]

I pay for Flo Racing as well. Very frustrating to say the least. Thanks for the Supercross updates man!

[@warphammer]

The funny part is the thing that overlaid your user ID number over the video didn't break so it was 'technical difficulties' and dont' you dare restream it! KZbin chat was at least vaguely amusing. It's disappointing to see just how much of the whole deal tire soaking apparently was.

[@TJracing99]

Flo screwed up and they need to apologize and invest in hardware. That being said best value in sports streaming and what they are doing for short track racing is incredible

[@WilliamWallaceRoss]

Haters against Larson on Flo and everyone was sick of hearing it. Bell didn't have a chance and finished 10th. They need to remove the banners to keep this from happening. Everyone was complaining about FloRacing App going down and they apologized, but, everyone was complaining and it was probably because too many people were watching, servers might have tanked. Thankful that KZbin kept it going for us. 24 Hours at Daytona next for me and there is no way I am paying to watch NASCAR. IMSA, IndyCar and SuperCar is racing I can watch on Hulu, so, I will have to watch replays of NASCAR, greed has kept me away for over 5 years...Deegan is racing in Indy NXT.

Pursley rode and hit the wall the same way Larson did just a few laps before Larson.pursley pulled the banner down first

Stenhouse should go back to WOKECAR after his little tantrums on Friday at the Chili Bowl

That was off the wall. Stenhouse was wrong from beginning to end. Recky Spinout showed major ass.

[@x-man5056]

@@Marko137-em8nx NASCAR the governing body IS mimicking WOKE indeed. They make unilateral and unnecessarily authoritarian decisions. Often make things worse by what they decide to do. Often make decisions counter to what the fans and teams want. Can't get more WOKE. I pray the 23xi/FRM suit ruins the governing body so NASCAR can reach it's real potential and stay a competition, NOT entertainment.

Flo service is trash. I paid for the year last year just to watch the chili bowl. 5 months into 2024 my account gets deactivated for no reason. After multiple contacts with customer service, they were unable to locate my account. And requested bank statements. No thanks. Trash all around.
