A sign of the times really.
People need to stop burning fossil fuels for enjoyment.
Really irksome that some folks can't get that through their head.
I personally can't wait for this change to take effect.
Lets all try and consider the environment for a change and our impact on it.

For some reason we can't seem to let go of our dependence on oil for nostalgia reasons.
Obviously it will be weird to see an all silent NASCAR field but their are some huge advantages.
Out of the gate think of the savings on ear plugs and you won't have to scream to get the beer guys attention.
Losing the noise will also allow folks to have a regular conversation at the racetrack.
Soon we won't remember the old way at all.

Oh sorry. I just saw a lot of words and I didn’t read it. I thought to myself that it looked like just too much reading lol.

It took more words to give the effect I wanted, a lot more. It became poor Haiku.

So they're not going all electric? Bummer, there goes all the money I just invested in batteries.

I would enjoy an all electric race event and surprised it’s not happening, racing helped develop ICE technology and got us 60’s muscle cars. Lol good joke though, remember when Toyota joined NASCAR? Lol

Nice to see the tech I guess, but man it just seems wrong, one of the best things about racing is the engine sounds.
