Where does it stop? I was against segment racing but it's grown on me. Three segments were interesting but four, five or more is just a false way of throwing more "timed" caution yellows for TV commercials and to bunch up the field to create "moments." It's as artificial as a theme park ride...

Burn, burn, burn...or better yet...send them all to Folsom Prison. :punkrocke

Time for my silent, visual, occasional rant to Brian France and the network execs in charge: Let's hope for less stages than Cash photos in this post.

NASCAR couldn't make it to the 600 this year to make changes. Ridiculous and undisciplined.

http://www.espn.com/jayski/cup/2017/story/_/id/19509333/changes-stages-bonus-points-2018 In an effort to heighten drama, NASCAR vice president Steve O'Donnell said additional race segments could be added and changes to the points system could occur for the 2018 season. One idea is to add bonus...

I would want my 1995 Toyota Supra back. Sold it last year to pay some medical bills. Not my picture but this is what she looked like (with a little more wear & tear of course): Nothing runs as smooth as an inline 6. I didn't have the turbo but that was fine by me. That engine was...

Kyle Busch, Brad Keselowski and Truex are the guys I pull for now that Smoke is out of the 14 car.

Starting to get excited about the Dover race. I'm feeling a Kyle Busch win but getting prepared for another Jimmie Johnson victory. I'll have fun anyway. Hoping for a close finish and an exciting race.

And he's from New Jersey. ;)

Crowds are nowhere near that these days but I love that area of seats. I'm in 212 this year. Dover is great!

Anyone going to see The King get honored for celebrating his 80th birthday at Victory Plaza at 9:50am Sunday before the race? I will be singing "Happy Birthday" to the legend. God bless him. http://www.doverspeedway.com/news_content/petty80/

Our section was mostly standing from excitement for the last 20-30 laps. THAT WAS RACING!

Hahaha!!!

Stop giving Brian France ideas! :biggrin:

If he retires tomorrow, he is HoF worthy.

Hard to say if any recent sponsor has gotten more bang for the buck than Lowe's has for sponsoring the #48. If they cut back on sponsorship, how could the CEOs of many other sponsors justify the marketing dollars spent on NASCAR with no where near the success that Jimmie has had. Not to mention...

I think the casual fan doesn't see or choose to recognize the teamwork aspect to NASCAR. It takes everyone from the owner, driver, crew and car chiefs, engineers, mechanics, pit crew, etc. to field a winning TEAM.

NASCAR won't trim the schedule until the TV contract runs out but they could easily manage to drop 6-8 races and I agree that the NHL and NBA could trim their schedules as well. I'm not even going to address MLB and their ridiculous 162 game marathon.
