NASCAR said it is investigating after a noose was found in the garage of black driver Bubba Wallace on Sunday at Talladega Superspeedway in Lincoln, Alabama.

"Late this afternoon, NASCAR was made aware that a noose was found in the garage stall of the 43 team. We are angry and outraged, and cannot state strongly enough how seriously we take this heinous act," NASCAR said in a statement. "We have launched an immediate investigation, and will do everything we can to identify the person(s) responsible and eliminate them from the sport.

"As we have stated unequivocally, there is no place for racism in NASCAR, and this act only strengthens our resolve to make the sport open and welcoming to all."

What a load of crap. Did he have Jussie Smollet for technical support?

FAKE HATE CRIME.

INSTALL CAMERAS EVERYWHERE on NASCAR ... fraudsters are getting more careful since Jussie Smollett.

Aside from the noose, did they ‘find’ the MAGA hat?

What jerks... the black community sucks.

After Earnhardt Sr death, Dale Jr, and Jimmy Johnson doing so bad it lost all the excitement, never got into the bad boy trade off of Kyle and his brother.

She gaped at me, her mouth opening and closing wordlessly like a landed fish and then backing slowly away managed to stutter out “You...you...you’re...you’re one of THEM!”

I swear, I am grinning at the memory of that as I write this!

Nice story! Heh heh.

Same here. I don;’t think a single incident concerning nooses has ever been legitimate.

[[Also, camera are around the area, since you don’t want your competition to sabotage your car.]]

OR to find out your racing strategy, car setups, racing plans etc- it’s just like in football or baseball or whatever- they are very protective of their game plans, and tools etc- they aren’t gonna just let folks wander around without knowing who is there and why-

[[I’m not going to say Bubba did it, but it’s unlikely someone (a fan) did it.]]

It’s is, i would say- impossible for a fan to get into the garage to wander around unbeknownst to the owners of the equipment in the garage for precisely the reason you stated- the possibility of sabotage-

[[because attendance was declining for years even before this whole fiasco.]]

Yup- I was commenting on that very thing awhile back- before the virus crap- the stands at many tracks were just not full at all- and i attributed it to all the new nascar rules and regulations ruining the sport- (ie- competition yellows, ‘stages’, and several others that have just ruined the whole ‘may the best car and driver win’ racing experience- I’ve seen time and time again, a driver dominating the field- way out ahead- his car sticking the track like glue, dialed in- driver in his rhythm nailing all the marks perfectly- only to have to stop racing because of the stages crap- go into pits, change car a bit, then get out of his groove and fall back because the idiotic stage break ruined his concentration and rhythm- and the car change makes the car too loose or tight- and someone else goes on to win the overall race-

Let them race! Without the mandatory breaks- I dunno- Doesn’t even seem like racing anymore really- it’s like stopping the action of a mma fight because one opponent isn’t doing well and about to lose- letting him get his second wind, and recover, and then coming back and dominating- just let them fight- if he can’t go 5 rounds without help- then he doesn’t deserve to win- let the drivers race- if they can’t get up to the front themselves without the help of ‘stages’- then they don’t deserve to win

gettign very frustrated with nascar

I heard on the radio that the drivers are not allowed anywhere near the cars until race time. My guess is:

1. The story is entirely made up.
or
2. It was a member of the crew.

I am betting on #1.

The FBI is on the case now! The only thing they do well is look for white villains (even if they have to make them up) and persecute Trump.

If NASCAR discovers that the “noose” was planted by Bubba, someone on his crew, or a black person not even associated with the team, will they report that info or will they bury it?

Every square inch of that place has to be seen by multiple cameras.
