@DaleJr Why is the prize for winning the All-Star Race still only $1 million after decades?

[Christopher Bell @CBellRacing]

Happy off day

[Daniel McFadin @danielmcfadin]

340 laps into the 1992 Food City 500 only 5 cars were on the lead lap.

Things you don’t see at #NASCAR races anymore….

[Daniel McFadin @danielmcfadin]

Well, this is awkward.

Sometimes I wish Bristol never expanded beyond its early 1990s capacity.

1992 Food City 500 had record attendance of just over 62,000.

Honestly, if #NASCAR as a whole had had the mentality of “keep the demand” rather than “meet the demand” it would be in a better place today.

Anyone else think Raybestos sounds like the name of something I’d need to take medication for?

[Daniel McFadin @danielmcfadin]

Watching the 1992 Food City 500.

How bad was Dale Earnhardt’s 1992?

He won only once - Coke 600 - had just 6 top fives and didn’t lead his first lap until Bristol.

Anyone else find it annoying when a song gets stuck in your head, but you haven’t even listened to it In months?

[Freddie Kraft @FreddieKraft]

Considering 2027 would be the 25th Anniversary of paying the same million dollars to win, do we even need an All-Star race anymore?

Just leave Wilkesboro and Dover as points races and move on. Piece of cake.

@SMMHansen She was my first Captain. And she’s a badass.

[Daniel McFadin @danielmcfadin]

Sure, I like cars that go vroom for three hours every Sunday, but ask me about my favorite Star Trek captain and why I think 1950 is the best year of classic cinema.

[Matthew Weaver @JMattWeaver]

I'm always curious what NASCAR fan types think of me personally before they find this account and realize I'm just a big nerd.

Yahya Abdul-Mateen II has released a statement about ‘WONDER MAN’ being cancelled.

“That’s life, right? Everything will shake out… I’m glad we got to be part of something cool.”

@danielmcfadin As a Michigan/KFB fan... This was true agony:

[Daniel McFadin @danielmcfadin]

Kids these days will never understand the agony of your most hated driver being sponsored by your favorite movie franchise TWICE.

Jeff Gordon's Pepsi/Star Wars Revenge of the Sith car from Talladega 2005 on display at the IMS Museum.

This is Hendrick chassis 24-218, which won Talladega in 2004 (famously breaking DEI's Talladega win streak) and then again in 2005. It also won the 2004 Pepsi 400.

[Adam Stern @A_S12]

.@TNTSportsUS got a 1.34 rating and 2.384 million viewers for Sunday's NASCAR Cup Series Brickyard 400 @IMS, up 8% in rating but down 3% in viewership from last year, per @Nielsen's panel-only data.

[Daniel McFadin @danielmcfadin]

Hey @philenespanol and @sarahdavisagain, I think @NASCARClassics made this specifically for you guys.

They get it… I love this whole thing.

NEW: The 4 U.S. troops killed during renewed fighting with Iran in recent weeks are no longer listed as part of the Iran war death toll in DCAS.

They’re in a new, separate category.

This is despite Pentagon claims their disappearance earlier this week were “data disruptions.”
