NASCAR Forgot How To Spell 'NASCAR' On A Graphic Because Spelling Is Hard

The NASCAR Cup Series, Xfinity Series, and Craftsman Truck Series are all in Richmond this weekend for some short-track racing, however, there was a bit of a goof with an on-track graphic.

Of course, there are a lot of graphics on and around a NASCAR track, so you can understand that there may be an occasional typo. We're only human.

However, spelling "NASCAR" wrong in an Xfinity Series graphic was not something most of us would have seen coming.

Hell, yeah; I love NRSCAR!

Now, before we typo-shame people, let's remember that spelling is hard. If it weren't for autocorrect, you would think I wrote this article in a different language what with all the mistakes.

Also, I'll say this: sometimes capital As and Rs can look similar. It's not like they were in a different zip code and wrote NJSCAR or NQSCAR.

Unfortunately, for whoever put that there, there's not a lot of room to argue that it was an A that got smeared. I think that would have been my argument, but that R is just too damn crisp. You can tell it's an R from space.

What's also wild is that I assume that these are stenciled on and not free-handed. If that's right then somewhere there's a NRSCAR stencil — which probably has some decent eBay value — that made it through several people before it was used at the track.

Oh, well. No harm done… except to the ego of one of the painters.

It doesn't appear that this was rectified ahead of Saturday's  ̶N̶R̶S̶C̶A̶R̶ NASCAR Xfinity Series race — the ToyotaCare 250 — which took place in the afternoon.

The Cup Series will be on track for the Toyota Owners 400 on Sunday afternoon.

That'll be a solid way to spend your Easter after hiding/finding eggs and eating your weight in ham.
