My Thoughts On 2017 Rules and Outlooks

By David G. Firestone

Before I finish for the year, I wanted to take some time and discuss a few things in the NASCAR world that are changing. Some are good, others are not. But all of them are going to impact the 2017 NASCAR season.

First is the big news that there are new rules for Cup drivers in the Xfinity and Truck Series. The two most important new rules are:

*Drivers with more than five years of full-time premier series experience will be ineligible to compete in the final eight races in each series, as well as the Dash 4 Cash races in the NASCAR XFINITY Series. The final eight races are comprised of the regular season finale and the entirety of the Chase in each series.

*Starting next season, premier series drivers with more than five years of full-time experience will be eligible to compete in a maximum of 10 races in the XFINITY Series and seven races in the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series.

I don’t think that the rules go far enough. I am a fan of the idea that the minor leagues of racing should only be used for driver development and/or driver injury rehabilitation. That is how every other sport in the history of ever has used their minor leagues. In my mind, full-time Cup drivers shouldn’t be allowed to compete in the Xfinity or Truck series, unless they have missed some races due to injury and want to judge if they are capable of running a full Cup race, or they lose their ride, and aren’t competing in the Cup series anymore.

Please don’t try to tell me that the Xfinity and Truck races benefit from “star power” of the Cup drivers. That argument makes zero sense whatsoever, because no other sports league does that with their stars. Did the NHL send Wayne Gretzky to the minors to boost their star power? Did the NBA send LeBron James to the D-league? Did the MLB send Mickey Mantle to the minors to boost star power? The answer is no. Mantle and Gretzky did spend time in the minors, but that was early in their careers, where their talents were obvious but they needed some more polish before debuting in the major leagues.

I also got some news last week that proves something I have been saying for some time. Greg Biffle was released from Roush Racing due to a lack of sponsorship. Biffle finished 23rd in the standings, and was the third best of the Roush drivers, with Trevor Bayne finishing 22nd, and Ricky Stenhouse finishing 21st. Roush Fenway Racing has gone from super team to super joke in the last decade. I hate to say I told you so, but I told you so.

Why Jack Roush refuses to use the free agency system for his team is perplexing. Roush exclusively uses his developmental program for his Cup teams, despite all evidence that in recent years, it hasn’t worked well. Even teams like Richard Chldress Racing, and Joe Gibbs Racing, who were also using their developmental programs for their Cup talent figured out quickly that the free agent market is a great way to boost their teams. Roush seems to be fixated on that, despite that in the last 10 years, it has gotten them nowhere.

Yes, it did work with Carl Edwards, Matt Kenseth, and Greg Biffle, but those guys were very talented drivers who would have thrived no matter where they ran. While Ricky Stenhouse Jr., and Trevor Bayne are talented drivers, they aren’t on the level of Edwards, Kenseth, or Biffle. That’s not taking anything away from them. You need to be a talented driver to race your way into the Cup Series. Hell, Ricky Stenhouse Jr. is a two-time Xfinity Champion, but when was the last time a driver was Xfinity Series Champion, then went on to win a Cup Championship? Bobby Labonte did it in 2000, but that’s the only example. Roush has more faith in his developmental program and his equipment than he should. The only driver to win in a Roush-Fenway car was Chris Buescher, and he just signed with a Chevy team for 2017.

Now we move on to Brian Scott. This is the sort of thing that just annoys me with professional athletes sometimes. Prior to the race at Phoenix, Scott announced that he would be retiring from driving at age 28. I’d like to quote the Richard Petty Motorsports press release if I may:

“MOORESVILLE, N.C. (November 10, 2016) – Richard Petty Motorsports and Brian Scott today announced Scott, driver of the No. 44 Richard Petty Motorsports Ford, will retire from full-time competition in NASCAR at the end of the 2016 NASCAR Sprint Cup Series season. Scott has made the personal decision to focus on his young and growing family and also the next phase of his career.”

Let me see I understand this correctly, you are giving up a job that pays very well, where you have no real worries providing for your family, to focus on your family. I looked this up, and I discovered that Brian Scott’s career earnings in the top three series are over $10 million, and that’s just on-track, that doesn’t factor into endorsements. You are also one of the few drivers who has built-in sponsorships. You don’t have as much trouble as some drivers in finding companies to sponsor your team.

Also, you retired to “focus on the next phase of your career.” Someone please explain to me what in the Hell that means? What is this “next phase?” You have worked your whole life to become a race car driver, but now you have retired. I hope you have a decent education, and can find a decent place to work, because very few places pay as well as your previous job, and I’m willing to bet your savings won’t carry through for 18 years.

Something else that went under the radar in recent weeks is that it was announced that Phoenix International Raceway is making some improvements to the track. Now normally, I would be all for it, because that usualy means that there are new fan amenities and some new stuff for the driver. Then I saw what was being done, and I went into shock. Here is the generalized list, according to NBC Sports:

-The start/finish line is shown to be in what is now Turn 2.

-All the frontstretch grandstands would be eliminated and replaced by an elevated RV parking lot and have additional parking behind it.

-The Allison grandstand in Turn 2 will be extended to go through the entire turn.

-Pit road will be moved closer to the infield and have a tighter radius. That will allow additional space between the track and pit road.

-There would be five new garages for competitors.

-The media center would be moved from its present location across from the current start/finish line to just beyond Turn 2.

-The infield care center would move from behind the current media center to between what is now Turns 3 and 4.

-Victory Lane would be moved behind pit road to spot between what is now Turns 1 and 2.

When I saw that the front-stretch grandstands would be eliminated, and that the start/finish line would be moved to turn two, I honestly thought it was a joke of some kind, but the plans that have been submitted clearly show this is the real setup. What in the world is going on here? Was the racing in Phoenix so bad, that the track had to be drastically changed? I didn’t think it was bad. It boggles the mind that someone not only came up with this, but submitted the plans for approval. I can only hope the racing is as good as they want it to be.

As of this writing, NASCAR hasn’t announced a series sponsor for the Cup series. I’m going to start my winter break after Saturday, but if the announcement comes through, I will discuss the new sponsor and new logos. See you in January.

The Final Paint Scheme Grades of 2016-November 26, 2016

By David G. Firestone

Dylan Lupton #32 Can Am/Corvette Parts Ford Fusion-It’s a smooth scheme, with a great color scheme, and a great look. It earns an A.

Michael McDowell #59 Thrivent Financial Chevy SS-Replacing the silver with black helped the car a little, but the scheme itself is overdone, and doesn’t look as good as it could be. All things considered, I give it a C+.

Alex Bowman #88 Axalta/Finish Master Chevy SS-Same scheme as Axalta, same A grade.

 

Formula One Month Ends With A Bang!

schumacherpant-1By David G. Firestone

On this, the last Friday Feature of Formula One Month, I’ve saved the best for last. I really do mean the best here. With 91 wins, 155 podiums, 1,566 career points, 68 pole positions, and 29 total Formula One records including wins, podiums, championships, and pole positions, Michael Schumacher is one of, if not the greatest drivers in the history of Formula One. His 91 career wins is 40 wins total over the next driver, Alain Prost, who has 51 wins. From 1991 to 2006, Schumacher raced for Jordan, and Bentiton, winning two championships for Bentition, before moving to Ferrari in 1996. After being disqualified from the World Championship for is actions at the European Grand Prix, Schumacher returned to a 2nd place finish in 1998, then down to a 5th place finish in 1999.

Then in 2000, while still with Ferrari, he began his 5 Championship run from 2000 to 2004. After two more successful years, Schumacher retired in 2006. From 2007 to 2009, Schumacher held a number of position in Ferrari, including team adviser, and road car driver. When Mercedes restarted their Formula One team, they gave Schumacher a chance to drive, next to Nico Rosberg. Schumacher took it, and for three seasons, he raced again in Formula One. This didn’t go so well, with Schumacher not winning, and only scoring one podium. After the 2012 season, Schumacher retired for a second time, this time for good.

Schumacher was known for wearing Sparco suits while with Bentition, and OMP suits with Ferrari. When he returned from retirement, he wore Alpinestars with Mercedes in 2010, and 2011. In what was his final season before his second and final retirement, he wore Puma suits for 2012. This pair of pants, worn under the driver suit, is attributed to Schumacher.The lightweight Nomex Puma pants are in good condition, and show some light wear.schumacherpant-1The waist shows some light wear, and has a Puma wash tag with M.S. written in Sharpie. This appears to be the same writing as the Valtteri Bottas undergarments.schumacherpant-2 schumacherpant-3The cuffs are hemmed, but the hem is very hard to see.schumacherpant-4 schumacherpant-5The back of the pants don’t show any wear to speak of.schumacherpant-6On the center, just below the hem on the back of the pants is the Puma FIA 8856-2000 Compliance tag.schumacherpant-7I’d like to believe that Schumacher could have had one more run in Formula One in him, but tragedy struck. On December 29, 2013, Schumacher and his son Mick were skiing off-piste on the Combe de Saulire below the Dent de Burgin above Méribel in the French Alps, when he fell, and hit his head on a rock. Despite wearing a ski helmet, Schumacher suffered serious brain injuries, leaving him unable to walk, and having serious memory problems, and unable to speak. He may never walk again, and certainly will never race again. It’s a tragic and sad end to a racing legend’s career, and maybe his life.

Although his life has more or less been ruined through his skiing accident, his life will forever be known for Formula One, and his legacy as one of the greatest of all time has been cemented. I can only wish him and his family the best in his recovery.

With Formula One Month now complete, I’m going to shift focus to one of my December traditions…The Paint Schemies! That takes place next week!

Throwback Thursday-Jerry Nadeau-1998

By David G. Firestone

Jerry Nadeau in better days, racing his 1998 First Plus Financial Ford Taurus.

It’s 1998, and one of the greatest legends in football is in the twilight of his career. He needs to do something after football, so Dan Marino teamed up with Bill Elliott to form Elliott-Marino Racing. Jerry Nadeau was the first in a rotation of drivers in 1998, sponsored by First Plus Financial. The color scheme is based on the Miami Dolphins color scheme. The #13 is based on the jersey numbers, and it’s good look. I don’t like the U design across the door, I think the whole car should look like the rear of the car. Aqua top, orange stripe on the bottom. Still, I think that, all things considered, it could be worse.

My Thoughts On What I am Thankful For

By David G. Firestone

With Thanksgiving right around the corner, I’d like to talk about some things I am thankful for:

I am thankful for my family, my house, and my pets.

I am thankful I have a job with decent security and good benefits.

I am thankful I live in the United States of America.

I am thankful for the fact that I can blog about the subjects that I love.

I am thankful for my readers.

…and lastly, I am thankful that 2016 will soon come to a close, and I can hope that 2017 will be better.

Happy Thanksgiving.

Paint Scheme Grades-November 19, 2016

Austin Dillon #3 Dow/Owens Corning Chevy SS-Same scheme as Dow Olympics, same B- grade.

Casey Mears #13 Geico Millitary Chevy SS-Same scheme as Geico Military but with green letters, same F grade.

Tony Stewart #14 Mobil 1/Always A Racer Chevy SS-The horizontal black to gray fade is a really good look, and the Always a Racer look is really good. A

Ricky Stenhouse Jr. #17 Roush Performance Ford Fusion-Same scheme as #16 Roush Performance, same A grade.

Joey Logano #22 Shell/Pennzoil/Auto Trader Ford Fusion-Same basic scheme as Shell/Pennzoil, same D grade.

Ryan Newman #31 CAT Minestar Chevy SS-Blue and yellow is a good combination for a race car, and the simple stripes work very well. It’s a good look, and earns an A.

Kyle Larson #42 Target/Crest Chevy SS-Same scheme as Target, same A grade.

Brian Scott #44 Safeway Ford Fusion-Same scheme as Safeway, same A grade.

Matt DiBenedetto #49 NASCAR Heat Evolution Toyota Camry-Orange and black can be hit or miss, and this is a miss. The car doesn’t look good regardless of the color scheme, it’s over designed, and it looks terrible. It gets the F it deserves.

DJ Kennington #55 NPP Chevy SS-The shade of red is good, and I like the design. A

Ty Dillon #95 Advil Chevy SS-Blue, yellow, and white can work as a color scheme, it just doesn’t work here. Add in a design scheme that looks bad, and you have a D+ scheme.

Williams Grand Prix Engineering Undergarments Part 2

77-bottasBy David G. Firestone

Formula One Month continues this week with a familiar theme. Last week I discussed a Kazuki Nakajima race-worn undershirt from his time with Williams Grand Prix Engineering. This week, I’m going to keep the Williams undergarment theme going with a look at one of their current drivers.

Born in Nastola, Finland in 1989, Valtteri Bottas finished 8th in the 2005 Karting World Cup. By the end of 2008, he had won the 2008 Formula Renault Eurocup and the 2008 Formula Renault Northern European Cup, the first driver to do that since Filipe Albuquerque in 2006. In 2009, he advanced to Formula 3, where he won the Championship despite not winning a race. That same year, he won the 2009 Masters of Formula 3. In 2010, he became a test driver for Williams, and raced in the GP3 series, claiming the 2011 Championship.

In 2013, his big break came when he got the call to race for recently re-branded Williams-Martini Racing. He was teamed with Pastor Maldonado for that season. He had some success, including stating third in the Canadian Grand Prix, finishing 8th in the United States Grand Prix, and finishing 4th in the Championship.

2014 saw Williams-Martini Racing release Maldonado and replace him with Felipe Massa. Bottas and Williams had a great season, with Bottas scoring 6 podiums, Massa scoring 3, and the two sharing the Etihad Airways Abu Dhabi Grand Prix podium behind race winner and Champion Lewis Hamilton.

2015 saw a setback for Bottas, after suffering a soft tissue damage to his lower back, and was not medically cleared to race at the season-opening Australian Grand Prix. This would be a bad omen for the season, as Bottas was only able to score two podiums, one at the Canadian Grand Prix, the other at the Mexican Grand Prix. Although he finished 5th in the points standings, it was clear he wasn’t as strong as he previously was in 2014.

Going back to 2014, Bottas’ best season in Formula One. That season, drivers were allowed to pick their car numbers. The number they chose would be the one they raced with for their careers. Bottas chose 77 because the 7’s look like T’s, and he could use “Bo77as” That was also the first season Martini joined Williams, and changed the car and uniforms to have a more traditional look. During that season, Bottas wore this set of Puma long-johns and balaclava.77-bottas 77-bottas-balaclava-1The long-johns show some light use.77-bottasThe collar is a Velcro-closure with a pre-2015 Experian logo screen-printed on the front. The opening extends down the front, and ends just above the last logo on the right side. 77-bottas-collarThe right chest features Mercedes-Benz, RANDSTAD, BP PETROBAS, and BANCO DE BRAZIL logos heat pressed into the lightweight Nomex material.77-bottas-rchestThe left chest features a MARTINI logo pressed into the Nomex.77-bottas-lchestThere are no logos on the torso, nor is there a belt.77-bottas-flogo 77-bottas-beltNear where the belt would be is a Puma wash tag/warranty label with V.B. written on it in Sharpie.77-bottas-tag2The legs have standard cuffs, and have no adornment at all.77-bottas-legsBeing a set of long-johns, there are no epaulets or adornments of any kinds on the shoulders.

77-bottas-rshoulder 77-bottas-lshoulderThe right sleeve has EXPERIAN, WIHURI, and ORIS SWISS WATCHES logos pressed into the upper arm. There are no television logos on the ends of the sleeves. 77-bottas-rsleeve1 77-bottas-rsleeve2The left sleeve features GENWORTH, KEMPPI, PIRELLI, and THOMSON REUTERS logos pressed into the upper sleeve. No television logs are present at the end of the sleeve.77-bottas-lsleeve1 77-bottas-lsleeve2The back of the long-johns show some very light use.77-bottasbThe back of the neck features a Puma FIA tag, and WILLIAMS MARTINI RACING logos. The back torso features RANDSTAD and Puma logos. 77-bottas-neck 77-bottas-blogoAround the same time Bottas wore the long-johns, he also wore this balaclava. It shows decent use. BOTTAS is sewn into the material on the left side.77-bottas-balaclava-1 77-bottas-balaclava-2The front of the balaclava features a Puma logo below the nose-hole, and heaving stain around where the nose and mouth area.77-bottas-balaclava-4 77-bottas-balaclava-5 77-bottas-balaclava-3The right side shows some use, and has a small opening in the side.77-bottas-balaclava-6 77-bottas-balaclava-7The back of the balaclava has some light staining, a Puma wash tag, and a Puma FIA safety tag sewn into it.77-bottas-balaclava-8 77-bottas-balaclava-9Valtteri Bottas is poised for great things in Formula One. He has the talent, he has the drive, and he has had a lot of success in racing. Next week, I’m going to discuss a pair of pants worn by the most successful driver in the history of Formula One.

Throwback Thursday-Terry Labonte-1997

By David G. Firestone

Upset 1996 Winston Cup Champion Terry Labonte returns in his 1997 Kellogg’s Chevy Monte Carlo.

I like the old school Kellogg’s scheme from the 1990’s. The Corn Flakes design was always a good look. The red back, with the slanted stripe to the white with green designs on the side. That unique door number, that fit perfectly into the design of the car is amazing. I didn’t notice until just now that the door number is slanted forward, and the roof number is slanted in reverse. It’s a good look, however, I think that the #5 should get a new door number, because it makes no sense that they are using a number design from a sponsor they no longer have.
