Today, NASCAR released a picture of the garage pull-down rope and knot that both they and Bubba Wallace described as a “noose hanging over the car“.
Except it clearly was not hanging over the car, and it clearly wasn’t a “noose” or it wouldn’t function to help pull the door down. Driver Bubba Wallace now calls it “a non-functioning noose.” Or, in simple terms, a garage pull-down rope with a loop-knot tied in the end.
However, what NASCAR does not yet realize is the picture they have provided actually makes the situation worse; because the picture shows something else, something worse:

His career average finish is 24th. Six top ten finishes in four years. Two top 5.
Suddenly, in the last three races, he’s on a roll with average 12th place finishes.
His racial stance is affecting competition. None of the others drivers what’s to be that white cracker who wrecked Bubba.
“Remember that the next time you tie nooses in your shoes.”
Murstein's involvement is indicative of a long march through yet another institution. Fundamental transformation isn't overnight.
Though I swore off NASCAR some years ago because the France family crapped on the sport and its fans once too often, it still saddens me that Richard Petty is coming across as the Double Cross from Level Cross. Pappy Boyington was a bit disingenuous when he said, "Show me a hero, and I'll show you a bum," but it is not a bad aphorism to contemplate now and then.
Bad show all around. Turning a game into a sport, and a sport into a business will eventually suck anything good right out of it. NASCAR has entropied into another 15 minutes of lecturing by Big Brother.
Sorry but that picture looks like the rope is way too clean to have been there for months at least. Mechanic hands aren’t the cleanest in the world and neither is a garage floor, which it sits on most of the time.
It has that McNoose look.
Fake but accurate noose.
I’m not a NASCAR watcher. Don’t care to watch cars going around a track counter-clockwise and waiting to see a big crash. ...Who watches sports hoping to see people injured or killed?
I never heard of Bubba W. until the hoax of a noose became news and certainly didn’t know the driver was Black.
I think a real noose has 13 turns, not 7 seen in the photo.
If it was a real noose it would be useless as a door pull.
thanks for that. Maybe Bowie knew something ? great mantle\mcclain\pepitone story here...especially pepitone part.
911 Dispatcher: “What is your problem?”
Caller: “I saw a statue. No, No, I meant to say I saw a noose.”

I always used (too old to fisn now) the noose knot to tie my lures to my fishing line. The knot was easy to tie, and the line always broke before the knot failed. Little did I know that the use of this knot may have been the reason I never caught many fish. How the fish knew that I was using the noose knot is beyond me, but it is so nice to become “woke.”
there is a chance he has improved- but really- He’s just a mediocre driver- and an attention seeker obviously- an yes, you are right- ANY incident involving him wrecking will be deemed a ‘hate crime’ practically-
I’ve come to really despise this racist man.
