I tweeted out a few weeks ago that I was done following NASCAR, after decades of being a serious fan because they now allow team members to kneel during opening ceremonies and disrespect our American flag.
You would not believe the vile responses I got, hundreds of them. Racist was the nicest thing I was called.
Screw them. I’m done.
I also appreciated Trump’s speech about Wallace. He owes a big apology.
He sure has improved though. His career average finish is 24th, but since he set himself up as the token untouchable, everyone is afraid to race him hard. His average finish since then is about 11th including a top ten yesterday.
Playing the race card is affecting competition.

another tweet might be appropriate “Thanks for proving my point folks- this is the kind of vile crap I’m leaving behind- good riddence-”

I thought about that- I wondered if NASCAR might fudge the rules for his car secretly- just to help him along- allow his car to be a little faster- a little better handling- Amazing that he’s doing so much better all of a sudden- I don’t know if NASCAR woudl do that- but the thought sure did cross the mind because of his sudden improvements- which of course everyone in NASCAr will claim is just regular old improving after experience- but like you said- it sure was a big leap forward quickly
