NASCAR: Will Gas Shortages Have Devastating Impact on This Year’s Races? (2021)

Such a great sport - I was wondering if the Electric Car regulation/mandate will drive NASCAR racing to cease and desist!!!

There is no way the Gobmint can force our current cars off the road - so I expect it will only apply to new car manufacturing.

I stopped caring about NASCAR when they went woke.

Rain delay at Daytona

With everyone rushing to switch to electric cars there should be plenty of “fossil fuels” to keep NooseCar running AND send Elon Musk to Mars on his kerosene powered space ship.

[Qiviut]

They'll find a way to race, even if they have to cut the bottoms out of their cars & propel with their feet ala Fred Flinstone.

[rktman]

No way the gobmint can force ICE vehicles off the road? What you been smokin’? I read the highlights of the powers delegated to our UPOS gov during a declaration of emergency. He had the power to restrict ALL travel within the state if he wanted to. He didnt but he could have with the stroke of a pen. NEVER underestimate evil demokkkommies.

[G Larry]

No, but Policy stupidity might......

[MtnClimber]

Maybe each car will be limited to 12 AAA batteries per race.

I still enjoy telling
( well, screaming at my tv)

Bubba why I no longer like him since I found out he was a commie black supremists racist fbi calling whiney a hole who wrecks the field every time he’s given his reparations laps in the top 10.

Payback for the entire Brandon incident. Effing deplorable hillbillies.

If I wanted that if just drive down to the 7/11.

The “Daytona 500K Killowatt” just ain’t quite cricket if ya know.......

[blackdog]

The six hour Pit stops for fuel charging will make for a lot of commercials I suppose?

[cyclotic]

Me too.

Attending a Martinsville race was on my bucket list. It got erased when they went woke.

I was scheduled to attend a corporate event at Martinsville this fall. I just didn’t care.

The event was cancelled and I still didn’t care.

[FlingWingFlyer]

Me too. Bigtime! I suggest that when they run out of fuel, they use the drivers who didn’t make the so called “playoffs” to push the 16 drivers who did make the playoffs, cars around the track. NASCAR went full suck when it became another Disneyland for the little kids, rainbows and unicorns. Little things tend to piss me off. I’m still trying to figure out why the car numbers were moved from the doors to the front fenders. What’s the reason? Does it make the cars go faster? Does it prevent the decals from coming off when the car goes too fast or was the change made for change’s sake?

[BitWielder1]

They could change the whole game. Each driver gets one tank of gas and let's see who gets the furthest.

[KarlInOhio]

They just need continual on-track charging.

[pnz1]

Still rain delayed? Guess that’s good for alcohol sales.

[steve86]

I am interested only in road courses.
