Paving under the lights at Atlanta Motor Speedway 

Hope they get complimentary tickets!

@@Leuel48Fan I’d hope so!!

Pretty much the opposite about Texas…

@@Leuel48Fan They better! I can't wait to see next year's race.

i would prefer a raise

Isn't there roads paved with chopped up tire bits instead of aggragate? Ive heard maybe in the UK and it makes for a quieter sound over the road. May even be more gripe?

Don’t think we’re doing that in the US., i could see tires going in the asphalt for parking lots can see streets being the best ideas. ‘ Car accident’ with fire then catching the rubber of the tires on fire and then it spreading then you got a tire fire . Don’t see it.

@@darrelladams4188 yeah we need an expert here to give us some info on it. Montoya: Hold my beer! I crashed into a jet dryer and fuel ran out and burned up the track that had rock in it. lol

Like the coke zero sugar 400

LITerally

Teehee

@@Leuel48Fan omg leuel

Yes it would be lit

🤣🤣🤣 you should see South Carolina

When y'all vote for capitalism over and over again that's what they give ya

@@FeintMotion Imo voting is a waste of time, it's a scam

@@spacenout_6946 I've been there roads are quite lovely smooth lol☄🌪

@@Lady_Aleera But y'all don't wanna start shooting when it's been the obvious play since the 1960's, either. So in a corporate oligarchy we sits 🤷

Was the hashtag really necessary

@@KevinMcAdams26 yes

@@KevinMcAdams26 ehi man, Brandon Jones does need that support

@@hunterpro_1 👈 What he said, Kevin.

Unless nascar actually gives the cars power, we'll likely never see good legitimate side by side racing here.

Definitely go to talladega its a wild experience on race weekend both inside the track and outside the track. It gets wild at night lol

Like it was in the 80s before all the condos and stuff?

@@worldssickestmedia2713 the original track was a pure oval. Can't remember what year but it was reconfigured to resemble Charlotte Motor Speedway.

@@daviclar867 yeah. Like in the 80s and very early 90s right? Before the tri oval, and the big grandstands and condos and new infield and pit facilities.

@@worldssickestmedia2713 not a tri-oval but a quad-oval. In '97 they reconfigured it. Tri-oval is Daytona, Talladega. What they're doing with Atlanta right now is narrowing the turns and adding higher banking, which will probably result in a restrictor plate I guess, don't know.

@@daviclar867 derrrr. Yes sir. That's correct. Quad oval. And yes last big renovation was done in. 97. It was purchased in 90. 1st renovation was in 93 and 94 with the condos and everything. Then in 97 it got the works. Not trying to argue. And I don't know your age or where you live. But that's our home track. And before the renovations it was a massive sh!t hole. That place was falling apart. It had to be done. There was no saving it and it be cost-effective. They pretty much tore it down and built a new track. Just like now. The 25 year old surface needs repaved. It's falling apart. It has to be done. And then it will have changed again. It's necessary if it's gonna stay open and on the circuit. Like Lakewood Fairgrounds and North Wilksboro. You gotta either change and grow with the times or get shut down. And I love AMS. We drag race there on Friday nights on pit row. 1/8 mile, prepped track, full tree and everything. People race legends and 1/4 midgets on Thursday nights. We ride our sportbikes on the infield track. Road course cars. Car shows. All kinds of shit. I'd be heartbroken if they closed it. I'm glad they're repaving it. It needed it. It's gonna be way better.

Yes they are whiners, for 10 years we had Friday Nite Drags . At AMS, We raced 8th mile on pit road. Well the prima donnas would complain about all the rubber in the groove of the track , from the drag racers tires. They said it made pit row too slick when they came in off the track to pit. , they only have 2 nascar races a year . Waah waah.

Or tapered spacers

Or the sf1000 engine

Yeah, that’s what they want. Pack Racing at Atlanta. I kid you not. That is their goal

@@IanTheMotorsportsMan_YT yes very true, and considering they might hit 190 mph at a 1.5 mile track, we might have daytona/talladega style wrecks, or worse

They don't use plates anymore, and a smaller tapered spacer is already used for all tracks 1.5miles or larger. NASCAR will likely use the same 550hp engine package they ran at both races this year.

I agree , I mean how long have they been doing this ? Get with it people.

Looks like a 12.5 mm mix with a ton of polymer.

Nah, this might actually be nice. The reason why texas is bad now is because they took away banking instead of adding it

@@dannicolmatthew But they took a full lane of width out of it. On top of that, we have no idea how the new car is going to race compared to the old car. They should have waited at least one more year, then decided how to proceed after the new cars had raced on it. They have yet to improve a track by re-configuring it. They completely destroyed TMS and Bristol. The only improvement to a track in the past ten years was turning Charlotte into a road course for one race a season.

@@MX304 the track is still 40 feet wide, as wide as Daytona, they've got plenty of space. Also Kansas, Las Vegas & Homestead are both tracks that they've improved with reconfigurations

Yup.
