I didn’t think superspeedway racing on @iracing would turn into Pizza Hut Daytona USA but here we are.

Why hasn’t there been an Edmund Fitzgerald movie made? Come on Hollywood

I think Kirk Cousins is going to be a Viking

Pro NASCAR tweet here.
The charter system absolutely slaughtered the fun times of having one offs in the cup series on a regular basis.

[Forrest Robbins @FWRobbins45]

Throwback to John Andretti in a fourth (90) @RCRracing entry at Talladega in 2003. John had been released from the Petty Enterprises #43 around two quarters into the season in favor of Christian Fittipaldi (🤦) and was trying to put a full season together where he could. He also drove for Haas CNC and Dale Earnhardt Inc.

@dwest___ @iRacingMyers @iRacing False narrative directed from nascar to make it seem like the car isn’t as good as it really is.

Steve O’Donnell watching the O’Reilly Series race tonight

[Johnny Thomas @_JohnnyThomas]

Can the @CARSTour buy out the O’Reilly Series?
Serious question. Imagine that schedule…

[Johnny Thomas @_JohnnyThomas]

@Megafrayder2 💯

[Johnny Thomas @_JohnnyThomas]

@hershy926 It probably is

[Johnny Thomas @_JohnnyThomas]

Imagine 11am start times on Sundays. People would have 2 - 5 hours before their team played. Call me crazy, I don’t think it’s a bad idea.

NASCAR viewership slides to historic low ahead of season finale https://t.co/rhrJQzHhEo

Uhm.. it’s been around since 1948..

[Jeff Gluck @jeff_gluck]

O'Donnell describes the theme of 2026 for NASCAR as "encouraging momentum, but we have work to do."

The TV audience is "consistently strong." He says everyone has seen the numbers, but believes it's still good in the broader landscape and if it were a new sport, people would consider it a success story.

@pgh877 The Gen8 doesn’t exist. So it’s not even worth having a conversation on what it can or cannot be

[Johnny Thomas @_JohnnyThomas]

Every quote Jeff released from O’Donnell was extremely discouraging.
Rough times ahead for this thing.

[Jeff Gluck @jeff_gluck]

Steve O'Donnell is now beginning his annual NASCAR "State of the Sport" news conference. This is expected to last approximately one hour. Will thread key takeaways and quotes here.

[Johnny Thomas @_JohnnyThomas]

@FreddieKraft Not enough characters

[Johnny Thomas @_JohnnyThomas]

@Chad__15 No it hasn’t. The tires have improved to a degree.

[Johnny Thomas @_JohnnyThomas]

What parts on an O’Reilly car are becoming extinct or harder to find @DaleJr?

[Johnny Thomas @_JohnnyThomas]

That’s an extreme pet peeve of mine. You don’t see Derrick Henry walking around doing interviews in full pads and a helmet

[Dale Earnhardt Jr. @DaleJr]

@TravisRockhold Why is he in his driver suit?? 😡 Was there practice today?? 🥴🥴🥴

🤬😡🤬😡

[Johnny Thomas @_JohnnyThomas]

Is late model racing or any other form of oval racing around the country looking at doing this? Make it make sense? LEAVE IT ALONE

[Jeff Gluck @jeff_gluck]

Re: O'Reilly Series, NASCAR is looking at how many parts and pieces are left to keep racing the current car and then trying to figure out how to move to the next model, but nothing decided yet.

[Johnny Thomas @_JohnnyThomas]

LOL.

[Joseph Srigley @joe_srigley]

#NASCAR’s John Probst tells @SiriusXMNASCAR that starting lineups for rained out qualifying sessions will be set by Owner’s Points in 2027.

Probst also mentions that NASCAR is looking at an All-Star-like qualifying format for some races in 2027 (with a pit stop in the middle).
