I like Kevin James. Either this show will be really stupid or funny. I'll check it out and hope for the latter...

15-year-old could face NASCAR penalties after posting video of himself driving at Daytona to Snapchat

NASCAR rules prohibit drivers from having their phones in their cars on track. Will it penalize Taylor Gray for filming himself in an ARCA test session?

The Crew - Almost sounds like Major League on asphalt.

The kid is off to a great start.

Did anyone see the Fox spot during the Rams/Packers game about the upcoming Nascar season? It's called the Best Season Ever and is about all the changes for this year.

 

[WIMUSKY]

Did not. Hardly saw any of the game. What's was your takeaway after the "spot" GA?

I think Nascar ads are terrible.

Oboy..... I see I didn't miss anything....

Okay, let’s just agree that NASCAR needs a new marketing executive.

 

[GA_Boater]

That was a Fox ad, but I get Nascar ads to review - Both of them need work on ads.

They all seem to come back for Daytona...

McMurray Returns For Daytona 500

Former Daytona 500 winner Jamie McMurray will leave the studio for one race in 2021 to compete in NASCAR's premier event.

Broken promise. ;

The 44-year-old McMurray last raced in the 2019 Daytona 500, also for Spire in a car prepared by Ganassi. At that time, he indicated that would be his last Daytona 500.

There is something about Daytona that draws them like a moth to a candle.

15 year old gets a $1,000 fine and a year's worth of NASCAR probation. Hopefully in that time he will not do any more stupid teenager stunts. He certainly needs to learn to keep his attention focused on the road and his surroundings when behind the wheel on the road or he will be a news item off the track. Good luck in growing up, Mr. Gray!

It's going to be hard for a 15yr old to grow up overnight. He'll do stupid stuff yet. But, hopefully nothing inside the car..

You are correct and whoever is "handling" or mentoring him needs to be paying more attention. The kid obviously has talent. I would hate to see it wasted.

I'd rather watch a bunch of up and comers any day

NBCSN is closing down at the end of the year. It's sports coverage will be shown on USA Network and the Peacock streaming platform. Pure speculation, but is the Tokyo Olympic Summer Games off the table? The Games made up a lot of NBCSN content very two years.

When do Nascar and IndyCar broadcast contracts expire.
