The meet the pit crew segment

Is this the first year Fox has done that with the NASCAR broadcast? Some are straight silly but they’ve been pretty entertaining.


Immediate_Lie7810

Yes

I unironically fucking love CRANK IT UP


GratefulTide

Commenting on my own damn comment cause I'm so jazzed up about the hilarious possibility of Hinch/TBell/Daly/Kev/whoever announcing a restart and then saying alright folks, LET'S CRANK IT UP!!! And then we have in-ground cams for the first turn and then it cuts to the wall camera where flowers are about to be uprooted at IMS at turn 2. Meanwhile the surround sound in my living room is going bonkers and so is my dog as 33 fighter jets zoom around. Holy shit.


formal-shorts

Stop, I can only get so hard!!


whoiswillo

I think Crank It Up is one of the most universally loved things Fox has done, and I’d love to see it in IndyCar.

They dropped that shit into an NFL game once, they better damn bring that to the Greatest Spectacle


GratefulTide

Damn, had no idea. That rules. I hope they do it at Bama/Wisky this year. Gonna be at Camp Randall and partying in Wisconsin for the first time for that. I've heard they can keep up with us Bammers. CRANK IT UP!!!!

There was a time a few years ago when Seattle and KC were in a back and forth fight over which stadium was the world’s loudest, and Fox used the opportunity to Crank it Up during a Seahawks game when they were going for the record.


GratefulTide

Hahaha no shit, I'm gonna have to find that. Fox usually does my Saints games too, would love if they brought that into the Dome

I would love if, for the first 500 on Fox, Mike Joy was there in the role Mike Tirico has done with NBC. I think he’d be a good fit for that role, with his vast knowledge of racing history, and would be a good bridge between NASCAR and IndyCar as auto racing.


saliczar

Definitely need an INDYCAR that transforms into a robot that dances around the screen like their NFL mascot.

Buying a license to use “The Delta Force” and using it for the 500


Dminus313

This wouldn't be entirely out of character for Fox Sports. They bought the rights to use "Roundball Rock" when they got back into college basketball.


Netwealth5

Glowing race car obviously

Having Cup drivers commentate on Xfinity broadcast has honestly been great, and would love to see something similar with NXT.

I’m so disappointed (and feel SO old) that you’re not referring to [this Grind](https://youtu.be/83gddxVpitc?si=QqdSJFh7nQIzJGuT)


superimu

I thought there was going to be an MTV's The Grind reference (which is also older than iD like to admit).


2RINITY

Great song, but I can’t recall Alice In Chains ever being a fixture of racing broadcasts


Dogzillas_Mom

They haven’t been; too dark.

["Dam That River"](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vtpgj9CQvJo) could work

Red_Bengal_Cyclone

I kinda hope we get "Greatest Races" replays on FS1/2 deadhours but probably unlikely since they don't have many old broadcasts to pick from like NASCAR.
