I went to this today, just got home, let me tell ya, the best race I’ve seen in such a long time!!! I couldn’t believe how many people were there and on top of that! The energy was amazing!!! Go Kyle Larson!!!
@@GoatedAtNFS having a flat tire and getting stuck is not a new thing. It's like driving the car without the tread on it. Tough to move the car when you're stopped. Gotta keep it rolling.
THe durability of these cars are something else. Seems like last gen if you even touched a wall half your shell was coming off. Allows for more bumping and racing.
Sidenote I just a video uploaded one hour ago of the uncensored radio I’m laughing 😂 titled CHASE ELLIOT FURIOUS WITH KYLE LARSON AT FONTANA 2022 UNCENSORED RADIO
@@greatvaluetom4493 that was funny , he would have done the same ... it auto racing , what's larson supposed to do , say will you pass me please ? Lol .. from the back to win like a boss !!!
@@douglashurd8652 he wasn’t trying to block. He was getting an arch in the corner to side draft Logano and wasn’t paying attention to his rear view because he thought he was clear.
@@joshuapittman4663 I'm pretty much leaning towards that also .. Larson was going do the maneuver your talking about .. in any case second place isn't accepted , except maybe larson not needing to win last race of the season for the championship lol .
Huge credit to Erik Jones it seems that he never shied away from the Top 10 and a got a deserved top 3 finish, Reddick too he had such a good race until the tire incident.
This was the first race I have enjoyed at this track in a long time. Drivers caught on pretty quick on how and where to get runs on other cars. Fun chess match.
Ryan Blaney’s pit crew screwed him today. That was the worst performance I’ve seen from a pit crew in a long time. Not only did he lose every time off pit road. Not only did he never maintain one position. He lost 5 / 10 spots off pit road every time. Last pit on caution was running 5th with 8 laps to go and falls back to 17th. Pathetic pit crew performance.
He got screwed all day by his own team just like last week when Cindric boxed him out. He and Logano were making the inside work so well on the turns and Cindric kept pinning Blaney outside whenever they were with each other.
I don’t know what Daniel was thinking. He took the low line going into 3&4 when he was the leader which killed his momentum coming out of the corner. Nonetheless he had a great run
@@dalerobinson3436 it was full. I wish TV could do it justice. Could barely walk through the pits and behind the grand stands. People had their seats taken and were all in random places 😂
@@NanceLvr glad you had a good time,hope you go again. I don't hate nascar I'm a fan. They need to get back to there base fans before it's too late. I used to buy Bristol tickets 2 years ahead now you can walk up raceway. Stands half full.
lets talk about kyle busch, with the help of those many cautions and the perseverance he was laps down, like 5 or 6 laps and came back to 14th place, thats great driving right there
Same very intrigued to see how Danica does next weekend, I hope she does well, both Tony and Kenseth did awesome, Mark Martin did good for the few minutes he spent there today. So I hope maybe he could come in the booth for a race or two on the FOX schedule, Carl Edwards is another guy we haven't seen in years who I think he'd do pretty decent up there.
That was the best race I have ever been too. Woulda loved to see redick to win. Kinda don’t think Larson deserved that win with his block but it’s whatever. Told my parents it was gonna be one of the Hendricks motor sports for the win. What a fun race!!! Close end tho so it was fun still!! Haha it was actually fun seeing some spins this year
It was a good race! Larson’s spotter didn’t inform him of Chase’s presence, and he was aggressively bump drafting logano. I think it’s on the spotter, wasn’t a block Great race!
Larson just out-races most drivers. He makes these races fun no doubt. After the 14 and 24 got together Kyle told Cliff so now I guess it's going to be any body's race and Cliff said yeah it might as well be us. Well guess what
@@dexterhochstetler3727 your getting mad over someone talking about a live event which happened hours ago. Maybe don’t go looking on comment sections if you do want spoilers. This isn’t even the top comment.
It was a racing incident. Everything is happening so fast. Just a reaction to block and was just a tad bit too late. I'm sure they will sit down and talk it out. Chase Elliott has every right to be mad but that's just racing. Elliott fans out there will disagree but that's exactly what it was.
@@JJA1987 are you kidding me? its not about being a team player lol everyone out there is out to win the race themselves. at the end of the day, teammates are just other cars on the track
I think its the tires themselves. They are alot smaller now with the bigger wheels. Also, there is no inner liner in them. When they go flat, they go completely flat.. Hopefully it is addressed in the future.
I think that's why people like it. One of the goals for the new car was to make them harder to drive. It adds parody and a sense of Unpredictability now. I'm an old schooler also so I kind of like clean racing but I can also appreciate the unpredictability.
@@adamUDavies they made changes to the wheels. I never heard anything about modification to the cooling system. bozi Tatarevic has diagrams of the cooling system as far as air ducting box and components and he even explained what most likely happened with jgr.
Absolutely.. well earned victory.. amazing down low pass .. unbelievable push after breaking away.. almost like chase spun on purpose to make larson lose lead and the congested restart .
I feel like he's been calming down and growing up a little. Kurt used to be the same and now he's like this really respectable well spoken guy. I'm not going to lie I've noticed the same thing this past year and I'm a little bit impressed . Can't say I hate him like I used to. He's a lot more likeable when he's not crying
What did you think of today's race?
It was great
Finish was bad though
It was a good race but Larson just had to go ruin the finish
@@briangriffinfamilyguyfan81 Ending was good, just tired of seeing Kyle Larson win
Pretty great although I wanted other drivers to win such as Reddick and Suarez.
Good
first time ever seeing a race in person, and it was downright incredible
Live is much different wait for the super speedway
Glad you enjoyed it
Unpopular opinion: this race was more fun than last week.
Not unpopular debatable
@@billsmith9737 I'm hoping this car is all right on mile and a half tracks.
Unlikely*. Plenty will agree
Its actually a fact
debatable
I believe this is going to be the best NASCAR season in a long time. And congrats to Kurt for being in the back all day until the last few laps.
You can add Kevin Harvick to that conversation
@@NASCARFAN93100 yeah. They slowly marched together towards the front.
@@WingWalker1 Harvick finished 7th
And Austin Dillon
@@erinbaggarly900 Those two are probably gonna be the ones to watch late race. Kevin Harvick is called 'the closed' after all.
I went to this today, just got home, let me tell ya, the best race I’ve seen in such a long time!!! I couldn’t believe how many people were there and on top of that! The energy was amazing!!! Go Kyle Larson!!!
I was there too man !! It probably tops the 2013 auto club 400 as the best race ever ! They need to keep this layout !
I was in section 45. This was an awesome race. Most definitely the best auto club speedway race. Period.
Just an amazing display of racing for larson .. poor elliot got blocked.. larsons like , son i was taught that below first place is unacceptable lol .
From what I saw watching the race, it was not a packed stand's like they were saying to the viewers. We have eyes and can see for ourselves.
@@adamUDavies yeah the edges of the stands were empty but everything else solid
The new package seems to be working well. I think Im excited for a Lad Vegas race for the first time in my life.
Yep and that track has bumps as well so we might get a treat.
I'd like to see NASCAR run the road course at Vegas some time, I saw a GT4 race there that was pretty good.
yeah but when you blow a tire easily and get stuck on the track that shouldn’t happen. so a work in progress to say the least
Good point
@@GoatedAtNFS having a flat tire and getting stuck is not a new thing. It's like driving the car without the tread on it. Tough to move the car when you're stopped. Gotta keep it rolling.
Tyler Reddick would like to have a word with his LR tire…
I wish he won
Every race something has gone wrong for the 8 this year, twice while he was leading.
William Byron would like to have a word with that tire too…
Great racing ! glad to see drivers like Erik Jones and Daniel Suarez ride up front A!
THe durability of these cars are something else. Seems like last gen if you even touched a wall half your shell was coming off.
Allows for more bumping and racing.
Yes rubber bodies this year as the Xfinity bodies had last year eliminates cut tires, compared to the steel bodies from the past
Loved this race! Best race I’ve attended! Crowd was pumped!
As a kid of the early 2000's its always awesome seeing the 3 or the 8 at the top the leader board.
No one is gonna mention the 5 taking out his teammate in the 9? Idk about y’all but I’m hyped to hear that 9 radio on Radioactive

Has there been a proposal to change it?
@@trwent this weekend is the last race on the 2 mile, it’s being torn down and reconfigured into a 1/2 mile

Larson is my favorite, so seeing him win SO MANY TIMES makes me ecstatic.
The battles between Larson and Logano were great
This was the first race I have enjoyed at this track in a long time. Drivers caught on pretty quick on how and where to get runs on other cars. Fun chess match.
Was there yesterday. Best race I've seen at Fontana in a very long time. Good job Nascar. Packed house too! 👍

He will never be as good as Dale Jr

@@corvettemode1556 or Jeff Gordon
Better race than I anticipated. Competitive and close. Nice to see some smaller teams up there mixing it up.
Kyle Larson Crew Chief after win: Just another day in the office 😂
Cliff Daniels is becoming a force to be reckoned with.
43 car hung in there all day. Maybe good things to come.
Impressive overall yesterday, especially so in impressed with Austin cindric for having a consistent run yesterday
This race was absolutely fantastic
Always happy to see a Petty car running near the front.
The NextGen car certainly isnt perfect. But this was a very fun race to watch. Love seeing cars like the 43 and 8 lead lots of laps today
It seems to me that Goodyear has some work to do on those tires.
I thought Elliott spun out on purpose. Kind of funny of the rivalry brewing between them.
I am watching NASCAR since a lot of years 90s 00s 10s and these cars are very dangerous. I feel someone could die this year.
95% incidents and crashes, 5% racing. Great coverage there NASCAR on Fox.
This is the first race in 20 years where I never heard "dirty air"
great race highlights video 👍🏁🏆
I feel bad for Reddick. If he was in a better car, he could be doing this weekly. Winning stages, and not getting burned by lady luck
Get used to seeing him up front this season today just adds more fuel to the fire
Reddick is having that Kyle Larson luck early in his career, a lot of unlucky incidents and a lot of runner ups, Reddick is getting close
Why is this being uploaded in 720p? Why not 1080p????
This was an awesome race! I'm excited about the rest of the season with the next gen cars. And please get Matt in the booth more!
Yes and definitely more qualified than Danica next week. Hope Texas is his next race so he can talk about Road America.
Same very intrigued to see how Danica does next weekend, I hope she does well, both Tony and Kenseth did awesome, Mark Martin did good for the few minutes he spent there today. So I hope maybe he could come in the booth for a race or two on the FOX schedule, Carl Edwards is another guy we haven't seen in years who I think he'd do pretty decent up there.
Good Suárez
One of the best tracks in Nascar
fantastic race.

Awesome race!
Actually a great race and not a snooze fest
Great race. I was there. Perfect Cali

Good to see some new faces at the front. I was disappointed for Tyler Reddick, he had such a good day going.
Larson just out-races most drivers. He makes these races fun no doubt. After the 14 and 24 got together Kyle told Cliff so now I guess it's going to be any body's race and Cliff said yeah it might as well be us. Well guess what
I love the sequential transmission
We need Matt in the booth more it’s so good to hear my all time favorite during the race
It was nice to Austin up front fighting,, that was a awesome surprise

The best bounce off of the wall, some critics don't get it.
Excited to see it as a short track next year
Can someone explain to a NASCAR newbie (me) why Larson would wall his own teammate with 21 laps to go??
It was a racing incident. Everything is happening so fast. Just a reaction to block and was just a tad bit too late. I'm sure they will sit down and talk it out. Chase Elliott has every right to be mad but that's just racing. Elliott fans out there will disagree but that's exactly what it was.
Being entitled & not a team player

1:14 I am convinced the Next Gen car is the best looking NASCAR spec yet..like Trans Am cars but much beefier
Hurricane season is starting back up because of Nascar
Man, rfk looked good at the duels and part of the 500, they've had some bad luck so far though.
Nice job Eric jones
Amazing how a driver like Larson was ever let go by nascar. Way to show them up since returning Larson
This new car and package is awesome. All they need to figure out is the tire issue and it'll be perfect
More spins than a casino roulette wheel...
The sound of today's cup cars is more like the big block sounds of yesteryear.
What are the flaps that open on the roof
Looks like for the most part the package is good. If the teams could quit having tires go down it'd be alot better I think
💛❤️💙
It seems tires going flat on this new car more than past cars, not sure why? Anybody have a clue to why? Please share.
Sooo these tire issues…is this track related or wheel related?
I think its the tires themselves. They are alot smaller now with the bigger wheels. Also, there is no inner liner in them. When they go flat, they go completely flat.. Hopefully it is addressed in the future.
I can’t believe people actually enjoyed this race the car is nearly undriveable I have never seen so many people just spin on their own like this

They definitely appear more nimble
I'm just waiting until they get to COTA and they can put those big brakes to the test.
Fox camera work is great!
Who do you feel about kyle larson win?
Good race.
Would Love to a Netflix series kinda like the f1 series nascar is a gem that more people should know about. can’t wait for Charlotte!!!
May have a tire problem.
