    agree with VI. I am a JJ fan, but it is not the same as it used to be.

    Nascar has taken a hit in this new economy, but they are still selling tickets, so the new fans are still enjoying the ride.:checkeredflag:

    they could do a lot to make it more interesting. for starters how about shortening the season? it TOO fucking long. March through August would be perfect. They just ended less than a week before thanksgiving and will be in Daytona in Feb.. overkill. ..... VI already covered the rest :)

    hey Brian France

    I think that moving some start times back 1pm EST is a step in the right direction too.

    Yeah, if you like boring. This was the sixth closest finish in NASCAR, and it was a pretty darn good race as well. Matt Kenseth beat Kasey Kahne by .010 of a second. I watched most of the races the rest of that season, watched the Daytona race the following February, and then turned my nose up at them when they went to California the next week instead of here. I haven't been a fan since.

    Yep. I was there and my guy didn't win but it was the best race I have ever been to. Then no more Rockingham. By the way, California is not selling tickets.
