Seems to be the rumor around most sports. MLB and NBA are going that way. Its going to be a while before they let fans sit a 1/4 inch apart.

ckf Posted April 26, 2020 Share Posted April 26, 2020 Ryan Newman says he will be driving the No 6 Ford when NASCAR resumes Ryan Newman made an appearance on Fox’s broadcast of the eNASCAR iRacing Pro Invitational at Talladega Superspeedway on Sunday. Talking to Mike Joy, Newman says he is healthy and ready to get back in the racecar when NASCAR resumes. Newman suffered a head injury in an accident on the final lap of the Daytona 500. He missed the next three races until NASCAR’s season was put on hold. Ross Chastain drove the No.6 in Newman’s absence. For more info on Newman’s accident, see our earlier story. AND: NASCAR Statement: "We share Ryan’s enthusiasm in his return to the track. We look forward to Ryan returning to racing as soon as he is medically cleared to race." 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It kind of wants me to pursue a business idea I've had for the last half dozen or so years, but I don't want the headache or liability. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Platinum Contributing Member Blackstar Posted May 9, 2020 Platinum Contributing Member Share Posted May 9, 2020 With NASCAR scheduled to return on May 17 at Darlington Raceway, the planned conclusion of NASCAR’s iRacing season will take place this week, with events held on a virtual North Wilkesboro Speedway and Martinsville Speedway. The planned finale of the eNASCAR Pro Invitational iRacing Series will occur at 3 p.m. ET Saturday at North Wilkesboro on Fox and FS1. Among the initial 28 entries is Jeff Gordon, who won the final Cup Series race there in 1996. Not among the entered drivers is William Byron, who has won three of the six Invitational races so far. Also, Matt DiBenedetto has been replaced in the No. 21 car by Jon Wood, the member of the Wood family who once competed in the Xfinity and Gander RV & Outdoors Truck Series. Gordon will be joined in the race by fellow NASCAR Hall of Famer Bobby Labonte. They are the only two entries in the race who competed in Cup races on the real North Wilkesboro. https://nascar.nbcsports.com/2020/05/06/jeff-gordon-dale-jr-bobby-labonte-william-byron-north-wilkesboro-nascar-iracing-entry-lists/ 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were sold out so we didn't get the chance to go. We ended up listening to it on the radio instead For some reason Robert Pressly comes to my mind about that race. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
