As controversial as it is, perhaps spotting from pit stalls like every other road racing series would make sense? 3/4 screens watching different camera angles and monitor a track map. I don’t see much value in having 5 spotters physically watching the cars. Keen to see how it all goes!
Listening to them I was exactly telling myself "hey, all other racing series have been able to make it happen for decades, even NASCAR in Canada... I'm sure you'll be able to make it happen..
2 year contract with the city. For you folks that have never been here, there is nothing east of Michigan Ave. If these teams/nascar can't find a building to setup in, they are just lazy. When you see a photo of the skyline taken from the lake anyone one of those buildings in the race area will have a full view
I don’t think you realize that they’d have to get permission. Half the town is against NASCAR even being there to begin with. The spotters can’t just walk into a building and go up to any floor they want and sit In whoever’s office they want.
There was a race track built in the RFK parking lot in DC in 1992. The racing series had a 10 year contract to race there, but after the first race weekend was completed... So many residents complained about the noise... The other 9 years was scrapped!
No one is going to especially the 36 charter teams. I don't see the only open car doing it and if Jimmie was still going to be in the race he wouldn't have
@@benallen2196 My problem with them is, they often are boring layouts because the planners want the track to go around famous parts of the city. So you end up with a track that's all 90 degree corners, which is usually how streets are played out anyways. This layout is boring, Baku is boring, Detroit, Vegas. This track is just an 8...
All this hype for a race that is bound to be a snooze fest or a demolition derby. The track looks to be more designed for Indycar or F1, not Nascar. Hopefully I'm wrong.
Nascar has had some great moments and some great ideas but this STREET RACE IS THE WORST POSSIBLE IDEA EVER!! I'm a very positive person but this street race is not only asinine but down right insanely crazy stupid. These race cars are bound to wreck and I pray that this senerio doesn't happen but when these cars are wide open and get tagged or bumped or any number of things that cause driver's to wreck, how many spectators are going to be endangered along with the spotters!! I just don't see this as being a good idea at all!!! I've been watching Nascar for 66 years and this is the most idiotic idea Nascar has ever came up with. I wasn't fond of the coliseum race either. And one other problem I can see happening is a driver losing a wheel and GOD ONLY KNOWS WHERE IT MAY GO AND WHO OR WHAT MIGHT IT HIT???
go woke go broke no passing anymore ross and brad k the best 2 drivers daytona and talladega the best martainsville and bristol even boring now thugga wallace suxx but his spotter seems like a great guy
Because with the sharp blind corners with a narrow track you can’t even get two-wide on, one car spins and it’ll wad up the whole field. It’s not just about who is beside or behind you.
What are you talking about? NASCAR is the largest and most valuable racing organization in the US by a significant margin. NASCAR is also increasing viewership numbers right now. Things are starting to get better... that is, unless you're one of those old school fans who thinks banning the bars and stars from tracks was the wrong move, in which case, good riddance.
@@Glitchunlockedyou’re exactly what’s wrong with the tiny fan base nascar has left. Let me guess, you think the on track product right now is good too?

What if I told you street circuits in most other series don't have spotters?
And all those other series have mirrors to see. Nascar doesnt.
@@WindchargerPrimenope. They have screens in the cars
@@eclark9965 they still have side mirrors lol cant just run a rearview screen
@@cameronhobbs2142 i didn’t say that’s all they had….i just mentioned they have a rear camera.
@@WindchargerPrime they actually have cameras now
Sears tower, best spot.
It’s not even close to the course.
Don't worry, you'll be able to see Freddie from just about anywhere...
That "pee" story at the end 😂
I really enjoyed Taylor Moyer's guest appearance! Need to have him back with story time! The unknown liquid story at the end was hilarious!
Let's go racing Boy's & that is it woo woo woo Chicago here we come

They’ll need as many spotters as possible on the back half of the course with how narrow it is. One single car spins and the whole field will wad up
Listening to them I was exactly telling myself "hey, all other racing series have been able to make it happen for decades, even NASCAR in Canada... I'm sure you'll be able to make it happen..
I would be a spotter for free keep the $500!
That’s a great ending to that clip!!!!
I have a very bad feeling in the middle of the track where 2 turns come together. Nightmare

@@nascarman14 I realize that. I live in the west suburbs. Personally I think they should be racing at Chicagoland raceway.

will anyone start & park? would be the smartest move for this disaster.

Wonder if both kinds of smoke will be there
Shouldn't be a issue as far as the Canadian wildfire smoke this weekend
Weed is legal in Illinois😊
NASCAR needs to provide each spotter with their own private helicopter. What could go wrong?
Right? 😂😂😂
The helicopters would be in competition mode😂
And bullet/stab proof vests
@@kevinhoneycutt238 Lol I think those would be included
Maybe drones with cameras at each corner for each driver! 🤣
Kevlar vest 😂😂
Salty either way !!
That water took an awkward path through the drivers suit before it was dripping in his mouth! 🤮😂🤣
Willis Tower?
Get Tryke from Jim's towing to hang a spotter from his rotator
Are they going to add side windows and door locks for this Chicago race? jk
That's a good one. I find it interesting that nobody's talking about the violence in Chicago. Fan's are gonna be targeted big time
He did tell him not to get out of the car.
Better put gps on everything cause y’all might not have anything left
lets turn down the intro music..yea..
bad idea from the start
Nascar does not belong on street circuits. Street circuits in general at lame.
They look cool but the racing itself usually is bad

This is not a dumb fucking idea 😮

I predict the winner will be on his own lap... 10th place will be 10 laps down... Cars will cross the line looking like demolition cars! 🤣
Chicago will be a Horrific WRECK for NASCAR.
Why
Just hold my beer you'll see why.

I’m sure to you your comment was coherent.
You don't even know the definition
Bubba Wallace may be a lot of things but, a thug he’s not. You don’t any believe that yourself, you just wanted to try to sh_t on Wallace
Did I just have a stroke
Funny how the existence of a black driver is woke to you
Why don't they just use the mirrors no spotters.
Because with the sharp blind corners with a narrow track you can’t even get two-wide on, one car spins and it’ll wad up the whole field. It’s not just about who is beside or behind you.
The sooner Nascar goes broke and some other organizations takes over the better
