May as well make the race 100 laps or whatever and cut the first two stages out. At least in F1 and Indy car and every single other form or Motorsports you get a true race winner, not 15 resets and 5 in the last 50 laps before you determine a winner. Not to mention the phantom debris cautions they always throw. NASCAR is the WWE of Motorsports. It was my favorite but they aimed at strictly making it more entertaining rather than about the sport. The 80s and 90s Super Speedway races were way better and didn't need 25 cautions to make it exciting. They also completely eliminated fuel strategy wins.

bostonlager 2,664 Posted February 18, 2020 I wonder who will drive the 6 next week. Roush does not fock with the Busch or truck series anymore so he doesn't have a driver to call up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
