Fixxxmonger the hood, fenders, and front nosecone probably weigh 10 lbs combined. Fiberglass is super light. That car was way slower without those body panels since it now was far less aerodynamic

[@drewdane40]

A car that's wrecked this badly isn't going to be competitive. They're just duct taping them back together to complete as many laps as they can, because they might gain a few finishing positions if someone else drops out. Every position is worth points

Dale’s 2014 Bristol car was great, I remember being at that race. Also the inaugural roval race by an unnamed driver to advance by one point.

Yep! They can! Only difference now is that they've got 5 minutes to fix it or they're out.

5 Minutes to fix it and get to minimum speed.

A whole team improvise with the situation together is the best thing I've ever seen in motorsports.

[@TheGraySeed]

Probably only happens in NASCAR and Rally because people in those races are nuts and they have a pretty lax rules regarding the car's aerodynamic. Other races like F1 will simply call it off due to the fat amount of restrictions and rules they have and how competitive the playing field is.

It's like, yeah, you can go out and run some laps to pick up a couple of positions and could be funny as hell to watch the kludges, but it is NOT safe for a car to be going 75% speed, especially at Daytona, Talladega, Texas, Atlanta, etc.
