Your memory seems to be lacking that in your example, those cars were on tires that were hard as rocks with no fall off at all. I recall very vividly (despite my lack of memory) watching those races when I would just fast-forward to the next caution/stage break after 5 or so laps because...

I find your example interesting to say with a good car and driver you can pass and then you use Bubba as the driver example. Bubba is an OK driver but many in the field are better and they are all complaining passing is too hard and it seems to mainly be because of lack of HP and aero-blocking...

I don't think passing should be simple and easy but it should at least be possible outside of restarts. LOL. Less downforce, more HP and tires that give up more over the long run are what we need. Iowa was a good example of a race that seemed to have tire wear but tires did not mean quite enough.

I didn't get a great look at the incidents but it just seemed like good hard racing. Not like either of them ruined the other's day. Everyone always saying Chase is not aggressive enough and then as soon as he is some people take issue with it. He was killing it on some of those restarts...

No - I don't want that. I just want the leader to not be at such an advantage that no one can pass them. It's also frustrating to me that XFINITY is putting on a better show than CUP given that they do not have a lot the same issues in the older style car. NASCAR needs to turn back the clock...

I am not suggesting Indy has ever been known for a lot of passing but I do recall some really good entertaining races there. The issues are all magnified by this car IMO though. I find Kyle Larson to be a much more talented race car driver than Bubba Wallace and he could not pass him because...

I have to agree here. Happy for Bubba but was there a single on-track pass for the lead? I watched Chase's in-car all day and he was consistently turning top-5 lap times saying the balance was good but as soon as you get behind another car all they need to do it aero block and it takes 2-3...

I think for Larson and Hamlin to get back in the conversation Chase and Byron will need a DNF.and and also not have to have one themselves. Chase is very overdue for a DNF so won't be shocking if he gets one. I'd say Byron has had his fill of them.

I still think Byron is going to be tough to hold off as he qualifies way better than Chase and starts up front and gets stage points more consistently. Yesterday was a perfect example. I don't think his car was even that good but he hung out in the top-5 all day and would still have the lead...

.....or over driver their car and run them off the track? LOL

Man still can't believe that one got away from Chase. After he overcame the pit road miscue AND beat Denny out on what should have been the money stop and was pulling away it would have been in the bag if not for the oddity of the rain and multiple cautions and letting others pull strategy...

So Chase will be leading the field into turn one (or side by side) on a new tire that has not been tested with zero practice? Sounds fun. What was the old Jimmie Johnson line.... "you commit to the level of grip you hope is there." Not sure how you do that with zero background. LOL

I am glad you are enjoying it and I was at first too but I just see problems with it now. How far does this go? What is NASCAR going to do if anything? I think they will have a problem with people tuning out since we all pretty much know the result before the event. I totally believe he was...

I once again had the alt broadcast. I think it has something to do with my father watching the race live before I do and it not recording it. I can't judge the coverage because of this.

I at least recall they were OK on ovals but I am not sure what the stats are there. SVG just seems lost on them more so than the others. He is whipping the field because of a technique he has on RC's but can't compete elsewhere so to me that's a ringer. I see your point though.
