The Great NASCAR 2015 Season Rant. (SPOILER ALERT)

RHornacek · **Posted:** Sun Dec 28, 2014 9:12 am

Alright, I guess it is time for another year, another season.

And I am finally shaking off some of the 2014 season trauma caused by all the debris and the new Chase system. Now I am kinda hungry again to watch some racing. Let's hope NASCAR comes to its senses a bit and finally does some things right this year.

Not sure I am that optimistic, but I guess all we can do is wait and see.

Jeff Gordon announced retirement. I guess it's just no fun anymore with invisible debris around every corner.
I really hope he gives NASCAR some verbal jabs about it before the end of the year.

Not really, I was on the 1200 one and it kept buffering, have switched to the 600 one and it's been OK since, just a couple of pauses so far.

Maybe it'll be better tomorrow

There were 12 cautions till now, 58 laps under yellow. Last year it was 95 under yellow. So be it. At V8T we are even worse.

The racing is awesome.

Yea, I'm probably a bit too sensitive lol, I guess it'S not that bad

It has been a pretty good race so far.

Erwin Greven · **Posted:** Sun Jan 25, 2015 5:15 pm

Exactly! There are sometimes races which just fade away as it progresses, but this one is still very entertaining.

Ganassi Wins Drama-Filled Rolex 24

Following a drama-filled final 30 minutes that saw implications in two of the four classes, Chip Ganassi Racing powered through to claim overall victory in the 53rd Rolex 24 at Daytona.

Scott Dixon took the No. 02 Riley-Ford DP to a 1.333-second win over the No. 5 Action Express Racing Corvette DP of Sebastien Bourdais, following a late-race caution and driver time miscalculation that shook up the fight for top honors.

The twice-around-the-clock endurance classic developed into a two-horse race in the closing stages between Dixon’s Gansssi entry and the No. 10 Wayne Taylor Racing Corvette DP of Jordan Taylor.

Dixon, who becomes a two-time Rolex 24 winner, shared top honors with Tony Kanaan, Jamie McMurray and Kyle Larson, marking all three drivers’ maiden Daytona 24-hour victory.

McMurray joins A.J. Foyt and Mario Andretti to have the Daytona 500 and Rolex 24.
