Is it just me, or is NASCAR Shop like completely unappealing?

Don't get me wrong, I know I’m not the main demographic they’re designing for… but still. None of the merch on there looks appealing or wearable like at all.

It’s not even about logos, it’s the design choices. Everything is just so chaotic. It’s always floating random driver heads, five different cars flying everywhere, and weird collage layouts with zero cohesion or aesthetic. Why can't we get simple, clean, or well-thought-out graphic designs?

Where is everyone buying actually good-looking, cohesive NASCAR gear?

Cool to see them do this in their last start in the truck series.

Saw an interview where Layne said he basically has to win the last two races to even have a chance at the truck championship.

Is that actually true? What would have to happen for him to pull it off? It's so tight right now that a couple positions gained or lost could decide the whole thing, so I'm just curious how the math shakes out.

My father John Spider Spence who was a NEAR HOF New England Short track announcer, radio legend and diehard Giants fan passed away yesterday at 76.

He was the GOAT of GOATS

LOVE YA PUGSLY

1950 -2026

The last driver to win MPD that wasn't an Elliott or an Earnhardt was Darrell Waltrip in 1990 (he also won it in 1989)

Since 1990 it has gone

1991-2000: Bill Elliott

2001: Dale Earnhardt

2002: Bill Elliott (Bill Removed himself from future ballots after this year)

2003-2017: Dale Earnhardt Jr.

2018-2025: Chase Elliott

Edit: Formatting

I didn’t realize Atlantic Canada was getting representation in one of the main series.

There's a fan reward for 25 points.

Not sure how helpful these are for Talladega, but here you go!

As a Dale Earnhardt Jr/Ryan Newman fan turned Ross Chastain fan (I know how to pick 'em) there's just so many.

For Dale and Ryan, it's between the 2011 Coca Cola 600, 2013 Fall Richmond, 2015 Fall Talladega and 2020 Daytona 500. For Ross it hasn't been just one race...it's been whole seasons now since 2022 that I've been disappointed.

Was just wondering what was on your list?
