  1. Realigning NASCAR team numbers

     

    - Hendrick Motorsports: 5, 9, 25, 88

     

    - JTG Daugherty: 47

     

    - Kaulig Racing: 13, 31

     

    - RCR: 3, 8, 38

     

    - Spire Motorsports: 7, 17, 71, 77

     

    - Trackhouse Racing: 1, 19, 91, 99

     

    - Front Row Motorsports: 32, 34, 36

     

    - RFK Racing: 6, 16, 60

     

    - Rick Ware Racing: 15, 51

     

    - Stewart Haas Racing: 4, 14, 41, 44

     

    - Team Penske: 2, 12, 21, 22

     

    - 23XI Racing: 11, 23, 45

     

    - Joe Gibbs Racing: 10, 18, 20, 54

     

    - Legacy Motor Club: 42, 43, 84

     

     

    The 21 (Penske), 36 (Front Row), 38 (RCR), & 84 (LMC) compete on a part time basis and are not guaranteed a field position and must compete against one another for the 41st slot.

    This is nearly perfect. My one complaint is that the numbers should've been red. With LMC forcing their gold drop shadow on the numbers, the Family Dollar yellow doesn't provide enough contrast.

    Highlighting the Toyota logo with the red background certainly is a choice as well.

     

    Other than that, it’s a great scheme

    He has I was trying to think of guys who weren’t already with other companies. Booty would be good because he already has time infront of the camera from his time doing shows on SPEED and the Netflix show. And he really was the star of the show behind Hamlin. Him being in the wheel chair might be hard but I think they could work around that easy enough. Even one of the guys from door bumper clear might be a good fit (other than Bret Griffin who would probably rub people the wrong way with how opinionated he is). Paul Wolfe is another one who has been successful and could go to the broadcast booth if he wanted. I don’t know what his personality is like though.

    What about Darian Grubb? He was fairly successful as a crew chief. He’s currently working for Trackhouse as the crew chief for Project 91, so I’d assume he’d have some free time.

     

    • Tony Stewart (12 wins)

    • Denny Hamlin (7 wins)

    • Carl Edwards (2 wins)

    • Shane Van Gisbergen (1 win)

    I’d love to see Larry Mac back in the booth but apparently he doesn’t want to do the traveling for it. A crew chief needs to be in the booth though but I can’t think of any recently retired or someone close to that who could fill the role. Possibly booty barker, but he seems to be with bubba for the time being. Chad knaus is another possibility but he seems to be to pre occupied with hendrick still.

    Steve Letarte has faired pretty well for himself on NBC

    Another classic wet fart of an ending. Byron is more vanilla than vanilla pudding.

    I’ll take a Byron win over staying up until nearly midnight EST just to see bum ass Austin Hill win

    Agreed. FOX used to be the gold standard and now it's just awful.  Bowyer needs to be in the studio. Harvick is new to this so I'll give him a pass, but and I don't think he's ready yet.  Since we're on the subject, what genius at FOX decided that the best use of Larry Mac was to stick him in a closet studio in Charlotte? FOX needs to fix the booth and the solution is just sitting there waiting to happen; put Bowyer in the studio, demote Harvick to Xfinity and the trucks until he either gets his chops or proves he's not capable. Then you bring back Larry Mac and sign Jr. before he makes a new deal with NBC. Problem solved.

    Mike Joy - Dale Jr - Jeff Burton would be a masterclass NASCAR commentary booth.

     

    The worst part about Clint and Kevin in the booth was how much Clint kept talking over Kevin and interrupting him. Like how at the end, Harvick was trying to explain something but Bowyer chimed in with the “OMG KEVIN LOOK! LOOK KEVIN!”.

     

    I will say, Harvick is very good at explaining the technical side of driving. He has a spot in the booth on any level. Bowyer can kick rocks.

     

    Also, Larry Mac was supposed to be in Daytona because he was meant to be the crew chief of an Xfinity team, but once things kept getting delayed he returned to Charlotte.

  7. This Daytona 500 broadcast on FOX has been absolutely brutal.

     

    Clint Bowyer and Kevin Harvick are horrendous in the booth. Harvick I can give a pass to as it’s his first 500 call and is doing his best to make something out of nothing with awkward dead air time, but Bowyer is in year 4 and monotone as ever.

     

    Bless Mike Joy for being the GOAT.

     

    If you made a drinking game out of taking shots every time FOX did in race picture-in-picture, you’d be obliterated by mid stage 2.

    I agree that the Renegades should switch both the logo helmet back to the renegade and the name back to "Dallas", but given the timetable for the merger, I think any uniform changes probably, and understandably, had to be put on the back burner for now. Far more pressing issues to focus on.

    I wouldn’t be surprised if we don’t see any uniform changes until after this “first” season or even after next season.

     

    Currently, I’d rank the UFL uniforms as-

     

    1a. Panthers

    1b. Stallions

    Perfection from both teams

     

    3. Battlehawks

    Just a smidge under the top two. The helmet logo could be touched up a bit

     

    4. Brahmas

    Same deal as St Louis and the neon yellow could be toned down to standard yellow

     

    5. Defenders

    Not a fan of the camo white helmet or the unnecessary need for two different white pants

     

    6. Showboats

    Not a particularly huge fan of the shoulder yokes of circa 2000. Pants stripes need some blue.

     

    7. Renegades

    Using the wrong logo on the helmet, the black helmet stripe is wonky. and the thin red line within the jersey numbers looks like :censored:

     

    8. Roughnecks

    Good lord. What a mess. Should’ve opted to keep the Gamblers identity instead of this monstrosity.

    The ravens have their black alternate and their purple color rush jerseys so you can certainly have both

    The Ravens didn’t even wear the CR this past season, so I’d imagine it’s dead. Which is good, but I will miss it a little bit.
