Two drivers that I absolutely believe who should be on the hot seat if they don’t perform well during the first portion of the season are Daniel Suarez at Trackhouse and Corey LaJoie at Spire.

It's not consistent. Their bumpers still have the old logo.

Yeah, it feels like they’re unsure of this one. The apps are updated with it, but there’s several places that still seem to have the old one.

I do think the Orlando helmet could have the orange slice with a juice “sun ray” all the way around. Like the Dolphins.

Titans official reporter says no new uniforms coming this year. I could still see perhaps some minor tweak that most people wouldn't notice being behind the sources saying otherwise, but that likely ends that rumor.

Kinda like when they reduced the size of the numbers by some minuscule amount for “legibility reasons” after one season 

The previous set really was a new number font away from being great

OLD

NEW

What happens in the even of a tie?

Juice!

If Orlando must win, bring on the Citronauts

Turns out there will be a third driver of Kaulig’s 16 Cup entry

This feels like a leftover scraps hire

The “510 H.P.” is a joke right?

I mean it’s on brand for a Petty car

I kind of wish the pattern was used as trim along the bottom to imitate Dale Sr’s Goodwrench scheme

Anyone else watching NASCAR: Full Speed on Netflix?  I'm curious to see what NASCAR fans think of it. FWIW, I just watched the first episode and thought it was great.

I dig it. It only focuses on the Playoffs and the drivers in the Playoffs, but it’s definitely a fun and intriguing introspective show. Netflix is supposedly at NASCAR Media Day this week so there’s rumors of a full season length feature for Full Speed  Season 2.

And, since it has been a minute, here is the current 2028, Inaugural Season roster of clubs, 7 of 8 represented. 

 

So far no purple in the league, and no helmets which are black, white, yellow, gold, purple, or green.  Will that change with team #8? 

I’ll be honest, not a very stellar range of helmet colors.

As in designs for all cars and firesuits, etc?

Definitely cars, but firesuits and/or even helmets would be a plus

Might as well start this up now that we’re within a few days of the beginning of the season with The Clash
