Nascar zanimljivosti

[Talladega_500]

Na prvom mestu mi je uvek nocna trka na Bristolu. Sta-vise, ove godine sam menjao planove za put na Balkan da bi se vratio u Ameriku do 13. septembra kada se vozi nocna trka na Bristolu.

Posle toga najvise ocekujem obe trke na Darlingtonu. Zadnjih nekoliko godina sam iscekivao i Chicago Street, takodje volim i Martinsville i Richmond.

[Boss]

e ovako. ja volim sva 3 super spidveja. i poslednju trku bi najviše voleo da je superspidvej. road staze najmanje volim. pokono mrzim. bristol mi je smorina. i volim IMS.

možda sam pre dover voleo, ono monster mile onaj trofej mi je isto bio simpa.

[Talladega_500]

Ja nikada nisam voleo superspeedways, ali u zadnjih par godina sam ih prosto zamrzeo. Previse sudara i previse zutih zastava.

Danas je u 95. godini zivota umro 1960. sampion Rex White.

U relativno kratkoj karijeri (od 1956. do 1964.) je vozio 233 trke. Zabelezio je 36 pol pozicija, 28 pobeda, 110 top 5 i 163 top 10.

Vozio je uglavnom Chevrolet za porodicni tim White Racing. Bio je jedan od prvih vozaca koji nije jurio samo najvece trke gde je zarada najveca vec se bas trudio da vozi punu sezonu i osvoji titulu.

nikada samo što ti nick nosi ime jednog

[Talladega_500]

Pricao sam ti ranije, ime sam izabrao zbog automobila, ne zbog staze.

[Boss]

The image shows a 1969 Ford Torino Talladega, a classic American muscle car.

sve bi bilo u redu da ti nick nije Talladega_500

[Talladega_500]

To ime koristim vec sigurno 20-25 godina i mislim da kada sam ga prvi put upotrebio da je na tom sajtu vec bio neko ko je koristio ime Talladega, tako da sam dodao ovo _500 i onda iz navike svaki sledeci put sam koristio Talladega_500.

Da volim Talladegu otvoreno bi rekao da volim Talladegu, ali kazem ti da nikada nisam nesto voleo superspeedways, a onda sam ih kompletno zamrzeo tokom zadnjih nekoliko godina. Plus, Talladega zvuci mnogo bolje nego Bristol ili Darlington hehe.

e ali zašto baš 500 mogao si bilo koji drugi broj. previše je tu slučajnosti

[Talladega_500]

Broj 500 je bio zbog NASCAR-a, jer trke se obicno voze 500 milja. Morao sam nesto da stavim posle Talladega, bilo je logicno da stavim 500.

[Boss]

pa znam da 500 milja traje trka. zato ti i kažem da si mislio na trku.

[Talladega_500]

"Talladega" deo se odnosi na automobil, "500" deo se odnosi na NASCAR generalno.

[Boss]

"Logano je fin momak" reče tale

[Talladega_500]

"Logano je fin momak" reče tale

Kad sam to rekao?

Inace, jos jednom si nasao youtube link gde neko izrazi svoje misljenje i uzeo to kao zdravo za gotovo - kao da je to cinjenica.

Logano je bukvalno 6. u celom NASCAR po prodaji suvenira, ali eto ti i ovaj tip sa youtube tvrdite da ga publika mrzi... Publika je inace poznata po tome da kupuje suvenire od vozaca koje mrze, zar ne?

[Boss]

nisam ja reko da ga mrzi nego da si ti pričao da je logano čist vozač a vidimo da je jedan od najprljavijih.

[Talladega_500]

Kad sam ja rekao da je Logano cist vozac? To sto sam rekao da odredjeni sudari nisu njegova greska, kao recimo na Daytoni 500 kada su se on i Stenhouse zakacili, ne znaci da govorim da je cist vozac.

nisam ja reko da ga mrzi

Naslov video je bukvalno "Why these NASCAR drivers are HATED"

[Boss]

pa ti si rekao da su larson i častain najomraženiji a ispalo da su najpopularniji

[Talladega_500]

Kad sam ja to rekao? Posebno za Larsona, za njega sam dosta puta ponovio da ga je rasisticki skandal proslavio.

[Boss]

Većinu nisam igrao. Trenutno igram Nascar Inside Line koji je kako kaže u ovom klipu poslednji koji vredi. Imam i Nascar '15 bolja je grafika a pošto je razvijan od iste firme nije loš.

Oni od Papirusa su najrealniji. Ostaci te ekipe su osnovali iRacing danas najrealniju simulaciju.

[Talladega_500]

Cak 70% publike koja je dosla da gleda Chicago Street uzivo nikada ranije nije bila na nekoj NASCAR trci.

To je i bio plan NASCAR-a sa ulicnim trkama - da privuku nove navijace koji nikada ranije nisu gledali NASCAR.

[Boss]

odličan kratki podkast kajla buša. pitali ga koja je razlika između današnjeg nascar auta i od pre.

ispada da ova Top 3 tima 'varaju' jer su u sivoj zoni. ali ja verujem da je i do motora. jer motor je jedini element koji se razlikuje prema priči kajla buša.

In NASCAR, while the cars from Chevrolet, Ford, and Toyota share a common chassis and basic body shape under the "Next Gen" rules, they do have distinct differences, primarily in their engines and some aerodynamic details. These differences, though subtle, can impact performance and handling, leading to varying strengths and weaknesses for each manufacturer on different tracks.

Here's a more detailed breakdown:

Engines:
Engine Development:
Each manufacturer (Chevy, Ford, and Toyota) has its own engine development program, with unique designs for components like the block, heads, and intake manifolds.
Engine Builders:
While engines are branded by the manufacturer (e.g., Roush Yates for Ford, ECR for Chevy), the actual building and development are handled by specific teams or companies associated with each manufacturer.
Power Output:
Although NASCAR mandates engine displacement (358 cubic inches) and other specifications, there can be slight variations in power output and characteristics due to different engine designs.

Aerodynamics:
Body Shape:
While the overall body shape of the cars is standardized, there can be slight variations in the front and rear fascia, splitter, and rear spoiler, which affect how the car interacts with the air.
Wind Tunnel Testing:
Manufacturers invest heavily in wind tunnel testing to optimize their car's aerodynamics for specific tracks and racing conditions.
Brake Ducts:
Toyota, for example, has been noted to have larger brake ducts, potentially offering a cooling advantage.

Other Differences:
Chassis:
While chassis are built by teams, some teams have closer relationships with certain manufacturers, which can lead to chassis that are optimized for specific brands.
Suspension:
There can be subtle differences in suspension components and setups between teams and manufacturers.
Driver Preferences:
Individual drivers may have preferences for certain characteristics of the car, which can influence the teams' choices in setup and components.

In essence, while NASCAR is a spec series in many ways, the subtle differences in engines, aerodynamics, and driver preferences can still create a competitive edge for each manufacturer on different tracks and in different racing conditions.

The engines used by Ford, Chevrolet, and Toyota in NASCAR's Cup Series (formerly known as the Sprint Cup Series) are designed to be competitive while adhering to strict regulations. Here are some key differences among the three manufacturers:

Engine Specifications

Manufacturer Design:
- Ford: Uses a 5.9-liter (358 cubic inches) V8 engine, often referred to as the Ford FR9. The engine features a unique design that emphasizes power and efficiency, incorporating advanced technologies like variable valve timing.
- Chevrolet: Utilizes the 5.8-liter (350 cubic inches) V8 engine, commonly known as the Chevrolet R07. This engine is known for its strong torque and reliability, with a design that supports high RPMs.
- Toyota: Employs a 5.86-liter (358 cubic inches) V8 engine, called the Toyota TRD (Toyota Racing Development) engine. Toyota's engine emphasizes aerodynamics and performance, with a focus on fuel efficiency.

Performance Characteristics

Power Output:
- All three manufacturers aim for similar power outputs, typically in the range of 750 horsepower, but the actual performance can vary based on tuning and specific race conditions.
Torque Curve:
- The torque delivery may differ across the brands, affecting how the cars handle in different track conditions. Chevrolet engines are often praised for their strong low-end torque, while Ford engines may excel in higher RPMs.

Engine Development and Support

Engineering and Resources:
- Each manufacturer has a distinct approach to engine development, with Ford and Chevrolet having a long history in NASCAR, while Toyota has rapidly developed competitive engines since entering the series in 2004.
Team Partnerships:
- Teams often have partnerships with engine builders and technical support from the manufacturers, which can lead to variations in engine performance based on the specific team’s tuning and setup.

Regulations and Compliance

NASCAR Regulations:
- All engines must comply with NASCAR's strict rules regarding engine dimensions, weight, and fuel specifications. This ensures a level playing field, but the manufacturers still find ways to optimize their designs within those regulations.

Conclusion

While Ford, Chevrolet, and Toyota all produce competitive engines for NASCAR, their unique designs and engineering philosophies lead to differences in performance characteristics and handling. Teams may choose one manufacturer over another based on their specific racing needs, driver preferences, and historical performance.

odma da ti kažem da su to Hendrik, Gibs i Penske.

To uopste nije Penske vec RFK/Roush-Yates. Penske je prestao da razvija bilo kakvu mehaniku onog momenta kada su napustili Dodge, tj. kompletno su zatvorili celo odeljenje za razvoj i proizvodnju NASCAR mehanike.

Ni kod Chevroleta nije sam Hendrick vec su Hendrick i Childress zajedno.

Vidim ovo sad vise ne vazi kada sam ti pokazao da Roush (ne Penske) radi ono sta si ti tvrdio da fabricki tim treba da radi...

NASCAR’s return to home console video gaming now has a release date, with NASCAR 25 coming out Oct. 14 for Xbox Series X/S and PlayStation 5 consoles. A release for PC on Steam will be planned at a later date.

The premier stock-car association in the world hasn’t had a console release since NASCAR 21: Ignition in 2021, a game so riddled with bugs and other issues that some labeled it the worst NASCAR game ever made. This resulted in NASCAR reevaluating its video game strategy and eventually handing the reins to iRacing, the makers of the dominant sim racing software in the industry (not only do people use it for online NASCAR and F1 leagues, but pro teams and leagues use it to train drivers and design tracks, as NASCAR did for the just-announced naval base race in San Diego). This is iRacing’s first console game.

NASCAR 25 will feature four of the association’s circuits: the Cup, Xfinity, Craftsman Truck and Arca Menards series. It’ll have a career mode that includes managing and customizing not just drivers and cars but also contracts, team money and facility and staff. It’ll also have multiplayer and online modes.
