First off, wrong board.
Second, I'm a big NASCAR fan and went to my first race in the 1970's. Earnhardt was my guy and I wept after he passed. (I knew the moment he hit it (from the angle he took up into the wall) was a bad impact and that he was in trouble.)
Ironically, last year, even with COVID, it was one of the best Nascar seasons in history. Basically, they were the only sports game in town. After missing many weeks to the lock down, the sport had to get really creative to get all of the races in. I think they did a magnificent job. That parleyed them into this season.
For the first time in a very long time, this season has the potential for us to see something new and exciting. From racing on dirt a Bristol, to the Circuit of the Americas, double headers at Texas and Pocono, multiple road course, Darlington twice, etc, etc this sets up to be one of the most interesting NASCAR seasons in history.

Need a double at HotLanta
After missing the past 2 years, I’ll finally be back in my infield camping spot at Dega
