Guy's, remember the day when you could see a car across the track and knew what make it was ? Today's car's are moon bots to me. No one can identify with anything that is at a race track now.I use to know a good bit about what was going at the track,,make of car,what class was on the track,how many lap's in a heat race ect...not now !!!
Simple is always best for me ,i'm not to smart.Nascar has not helped with all their rules for the short track guy's.
More rules more money,more money less cars.David spoke about time at the track ''HALF A NIGHT'',,take a 3 year old to the track and that feels like a week.I don't know the answer,, but making it more pleasurable would be a good start.One thing that got my eye at the local track here last year..A lady was down at fence with a camera video her son's race..The track stopped her ,,their reason was that ,,the track tapes all races you can buy a tape from them..I was floored and never went back..
Dave there was a time when i did not miss a weekly race at Concord. Then i stopped, whennnn they put the pavement down ,,along with most every one else.The stands at Concord were packed every week when it was dirt.I tried to a couple times when they paved it but it was NEVER the same.
Tim,, there was a time when i wouldn't give you a plug nickle for a road course race..Over the last couple years that has changed some what..I'm not sure what happened maybe,, it is just me,, being hardheaded but i did enjoy the race last weekend..I almost watched the whole race ,,and that was very strange of me...I still can not watch a whole mile and half track race it is impossible...I been watching,, off and on the V8 Aussie cars some ,,and they are kinda exciting..
Do you think the aero push has made the road course better?? I don't know,but the cars seem to fit it better now..The Glen is much wider track then some tracks also ,,maybe that is it, more room to pass...Ms.Patty is right road course racing is close to short track racing ,,,aero push again?? I would not had agreed with you years ago Ms.Patty ,,about having more R/C racing but now i do..I just want to see some good racing NASCAR,, i don't care if it is on ice..I want to support NASCAR and not kick it like i have in the past couple years..Good racing is what i miss and hoping for again..If it takes R/C racing so be it,,it has be better then then these mile and half crap..
Tim about Kyle Busch and his work for make -a- wish...The guy seems to be honest with what he is doing there..I do think he is a good guy,, but when he puts that helmet on he turns into a monster..I don't see anything wrong with talking trash about a driver when he is the race car..There will always be the bad & good guy in racing it is a part of it...Talking trash about a driver with his helmet on ,,,is NOT the same as with his helmet off...
If they would go back to bias ply tires and get off these slot car tires...We would see this kinda racing every lap,,, every week..
NASCAR is a perfect example if you say something enough people will begin to believe it...When Tim Richmond got sick ,,, I seen how wrong words can ruin a mans reputation..I still hear words spoken about Richmond that should have not been said..
NASCAR is to cover their own tail's and who ever is in the way ,,well sorry about that. A.J. might have a problem i don't know ,,and neither does anyone other then him..But as i learned from Richmond,,the truth will not come from NASCAR..
Darn it one day,,, i am going to learn how to post the video instead of the URL.
Dave,,,Maybe Dan Gurney? The reason i say that is,,I read where he did some movie driving..Just a guess though..
