I've been a fan since a friend took me to the Oct. '95 Busch race at Rockingham.

I'm a Matt Kenseth fan, but don't care much about manufacturers. Nowadays they're all the same except for the grill openings and rear windows. Screw manufacturer parity and the common template.

ISC should knock down the banking at Daytona and Talladega, and either run the infield road course or stick in a couple of chicanes, respectively. Then NASCAR could throw out the plates and get back to racing, the teams wouldn't have to build cars and engines for plate races, and they could get more use out of those road course cars.

Mark Martin is a god.

Explain to me how to watch F1 on the tube. I can see the scoring scroll, but I can't figure out how to associate the names with the cars, or how to tell which of two identical team cars I'm looking.

I don't like the Chase, a.k.a. the 'Anti-Kenseth' rule. Maybe if the 'regular season' points leader was seeded first, tied with the winner of the most races. However, I may be warming up to the new points system.
