Absolutely ! those are the tracks NASCAR desperately needs

It's quite simple actually. Every time you have a fast, multi groove, progressive banking kind of track you end up with 2 problems IMHO 1. clean air is king so if you are the leader is almost impossible to get close to your rear bumper, let alone to pass 2. in the middle of the field you don't...
