Fucking Fox

Checklist bro?
Oh, shit. Storms coming. Soon.
Indy-fag here. This is my first ARCA race ever. What should i expect?
>leave TV on in the background after practice
>blah blah Racehub blah
>suddenly, A R C A
fuck yes.
>>67202189
Either single-file or double-file follow the leader for a while, wrecks when someone fucks up the draft, and pandemonium at the end when everyone goes for a winning move.
>>67202189
Single file racing, arca brakes, silly crashes
>>67202189
Rags in a Box
>>67202212
Kek. Sounds dumb. I'm into it.
>>67202189
dumb shit
>>67202240
>that hit at the end
HOW
>car 1 lap down before they come back around to complete lap 1
Only in ARCA
>>67202247
Classic arca brakes
>>67202247
arca breaks
roll for first wreck
>>67202255
No one's a lap down, the timing is just shit
Oh shit, just realized that's Townley in that lime green car
stream?
>>67202283
If only it was the tendie scheme too
Never heard of 40% of the top 10
TYBARCA
So, is ARCA separate organizationally from NASCAR? It certainly seems they have a working relationship. But is that the extent of it?
>that Townley car
Flat tire for Townley
>JWT with a flat
wew lads
who /gus/ here
>>67202247
>not knowing about arca brakes
MOTHER FUCKING
ARCA
>>67202341
Separate but have a working relationship. NASCAR didn't want a direct competitor, and ARCA is more of a club instead of a serious series. So NASCAR feeds ARCA talent and cars and helps with tracks and shit, and ARCA gets to goof around and serve as a step below trucks
>>67202377
Like I said, first ARCA race ever. I was only turned onto /turnleft/ after some based Indycar races last season. This is my first season paying any sort of attention to stock car racing.
>>67202407
That's kinda what it felt like to me. Thanks.
>>67202407
So the only difference between the two is quality of drivers and pit crew? The cars are pretty much the same?
>>67202477
ARCA uses old Cup chassis with fresh engines.
>>67202477
They're old Cup car bodies
>>67202477
Pit crews are often shared with NASCAR teams
Cars run the older Cup bodies on superspeedways and the new K&N Pro/ARCA car every where else
>>67202495
And the brakes meme..is the quality of brakes bad or are the drivers just bad?
>>67202520
Drivers
Seriously. Who the FUCK gives a shit about drag racing?
I understand they're a great spectacle of speed, but...How do you make that compelling to watch? I say this in every /turnleft/ thread I'm in.
If you guys like driving so much, why don't you just watch me drive to work?

>oh look, it's this post again
FFS it's been 20 mins and we'v already had THREE ad breaks. Get your shit together, FS1...
>>67202557
What's the stick you're moving? Don't you just put the car in drive?
>>67202557
Put your foot down and try to weave between the cars at 180+ and I'll watch. Because that is /turnleft/.

Been watching this race on my commute home. This is unbelievable for ARCA.
These green flag stops WILL cause a wreck

Why don't they just have the drivers turn on their headlights?
That's a disappointing way to end but a great winner.
This race starts way too late in the evening.

No word on Gerrhart yet.
>>67204981
Gerhart just released from the care center.
Everything is fine.
