COTA Groovy Gauge Presented by Lectric eBikes

What’s Happening?

NASCAR visited the first road course of their schedule at Circuit of the Americas, this time running the short course in an attempt to reduce time ran under caution and improve racing. But has it achieved its goal? Find out what Eric Estepp thinks by watching this episode sponsored by Lectric eBikes, partner of the Groovy Gauge all season long.

Groovy Gauge Score: 80%

• Eric liked the changes in the course, considering the shorter course a “Huge hit” as it suits Cup Series racing really well.
• Unpredictability helped raise the score, as there was never a clear winner or fastest car consistently throughout the race, contributing to its dynamic pace.
• Despite rumors surrounding COTA’s removal of the schedule, Eric believes it should stay.
• Eric believes the rules and officiating on the course-cutting rules should be clarified before the race, not during it.
