My favorite racer Randy Pobst posted today

We Americans too often just run or punt the guy off on the last lap. This is what my keynote address is about this Saturday at Motor Sport Expo / the SCCA Convention.

Also notice how the director didn't cut to anyone in the pits during the last lap for a close up. The only departure from the closest on track racing action was to catch the leader taking the checkered flag, which is acceptable though not preferable.

The commentators reaction almost seemed to echo that. "Oh, and here's the winner BUT BACK TO THE BATTLE FOR SECOND!"

Showed this to a die hard NASCAR fan. He went on to watch some more videos, then texted me later in the day: "Ok, you win."

I'm convinced the #1 reason this series isn't more popular is that people don't know it exists. The only publicity I can remember it getting, off the top of my head, is reruns on Speed Network on weekday mornings.

He gave it some "Jandal", a New Zealand term for Flip-flops. Here in Australia, it's become a bit of a catchphrase among the v8 fans.

How does it relate to racing? Like he feathered the throttle? Or it was a give and go with the other car?

This is such a great series. Excellent racing and their attitudes are fantastic; genuinely excited by the finish and appreciative of gentlemanly racing. Love it.

It was more like a "Fuck Whincup, I want second place" foot to the floor last turn pass...
