FanShield 500 Preview: Nothing to See Here (Probably)

It’s Sunday, and at least this week, that means we’ve got another NASCAR race. Let’s hit the FAQ’s:

Should we watch this, or the NIT-impacting action?

Good question. NIT stuff. But check back here for a race recap sometime in the next few days.

What race is this?

The FanShield 500.

What’s FanShield?

Nobody knows.

Where’s it at?

Phoenix.

Anything cool about that track?

No. It’s a trioval, I think, and I think that makes it less cool. Especially since it’s pretty short. They’re gonna have to do 500 laps, I’m pretty sure (update: I was very wrong about this. They’re measuring it in kilometers. 312 laps, 312 miles, 500 kilometers. This isn’t Formula One, people).

Wow. So only a mile long?

Good math.

When is it happening?

2:30 PM Central is what The Internet™ says, but there’s no way to know for sure.

Cool. See you later!

Bye.
