On the podcast, O'Donnell implied 750 is the new minimum and it's possible NASCAR will increase it again with the debut of a new engine manufacturer in three years.
This was an interesting discussion about the behind-the-scenes regarding some of the major changes in NASCAR over the past 20 years. Dale Jr. also said a lot of people on the playoff format committee are acknowledging the merits of a full season championship.
I agree it was a good race for the Next Gen car. New Hampshire is the type of track that should have two races, one in June or July and one in October.
I like the idea of throwing Trucks and Xfinity drivers into the All Star race, along with the Cup qualifiers. Otherwise, I'll be on the beach somewhere that weekend.
