Short track racing is Nascars roots. Higher speed does not mean better racing. How did you guys like the last 50 laps of the Richmond race? Half of them was you watching advertisements...which is BS. A freaking caution now kills too many laps because NASCAR is trying too sell too much sponsor room....especially toward the end of the race. With the screwy points system that does not reward consistency over the entire season NASCAR CUP racing has almost gone the way of wrestling and Don King events.

The one good thing about the ads is you always have pently of time now for a quick snack, go to the bathroom or read the parts of the newspaper that you usually don't read.

 

I agree, there are way too many commercials in nascar racing and the caution laps should be limited unless there is something effecting the track.

Why should it take 6 caution laps when the vehicle just spins out and doesnt do any damage?

 

I am a Robbie Gordon fan. How can an offroad rider not be? Go #31
The #8 is the biggest Bandwagon since Kurt Cobain died and Nirvana was the biggest bandwagon on the planet. He is good, nice, clean, GREAT for the sport, but hell, everybody is a JR fan.

I cant say I'm a band wagon fan, more of keeping it in the family. Like I said before, I like Sr. for years, and now I cheer for Jr. Besides that I am Budweiser fan first and foremost. Go Kenny Bernstein Jr., Miss Budweiser, and the other Budweiser sponsored teams. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img]

 

I have no porblem with Jr. Fans. I just like to be different.
I like Budweiser too.
Thats my fave Top Fuel car, and my fave Unlimited Hydroplane.

 

Sorry about the off-topic, but I saw the unlimited hydros run in Seattle last year. Gawd that was cool.

 

I grew up there (in Seattle), nothign I miss more about the Emerald City, than Lake Washington and U Boats! The sound is amazing. 200mph on water is the coolest thing you can see.

 

The people that pilot those unlimited hydroplanes are crazy. Its hard enough to control a vehicle running 200mph on a paved surface where the ground beneath never changes. Running 200mph on water is a completely different animal. Waves, objects floating around, and other uncontrollable factors. Thats crazy.

Where can I pilot one of these.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]
