    All-Star race experimentation receives mostly high marks

    I can't wait to see "plate specialists" like Ragan and Bayne battling for wins at the 1.5s...

    Is Hendrick Motorsports no longer a Super Team?

    Byron has the best Chevy team? :confused:

    incase anyone is confused about how simple this is

    Delaware Restarts:

    The one problem I can envision is team racing in the playoffs, having eliminated drivers letting their championship eligible teammates in front of them after they move up. For example lets say at Martinsville, where the winner goes to Homestead: Logano is in first and is out of the playoffs...

    All-Star race experimentation receives mostly high marks

    Idk how NASCAR can have a premier series with cars that crank out less horsepower than some of the "lower tier" series. What is the point of having a premier series that goes to large tracks if the power of the cars has to be choked down to less than a super late model? Surely with the...

    I would think it would take less time than to get cars in the lane they're supposed to be in now. When the flagman gives the signal to double up, cars move high or low as they cross the start/finish line and then get to the bumper of whoever is in front of them. You don't have to waste laps...

    Delaware Restarts:

    It's not the lead car in each row getting lane choice, it's every car getting lane choice. So you could get the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd placed cars choosing the inside lane, then the 4th place car being the first car to chose the outside and moving up to the outside of the front row, 5th place car...

    Delaware Restarts:

    Lane choice starts at the front and goes back though. So if the 13th placed car slides up to 6th, it's because the seven cars ahead of them chose not to abandon the preferred lane for the position and can only blame themselves if they lose spots because of it

    Delaware Restarts:

    Maybe I'm misreading what's being suggested. My understanding of the "Delaware restart" is that the leader gets the front row alone and lane choice goes to the 2nd place car and is mostly used by dirt late models, which is different from the choose cone cone restart, which upon rereading the...

    Delaware Restarts:

    I'm completely in favour of implementing the choose rule as it would give teams more strategy options without losing any of the excitement of double file restarts. I don't really see what's so great about teams being screwed by lane assignment under yellow after working their way forward under...

    SILLY SEASON 2019

    Cup series is going to end up being Kyle Busch vs the kids. I've seen that show before ;)

    14 non-Daytona/Talladega races, 4 winners

    I find it interesting that the superior engineering on the big 3 cars doesn't translate to wins for the other cars in their teams' stables. 4 JGR cars yet the speed in the 18 isn't translating to the other 3. Hamlin's finishes are good, Jones average (other than a plate win), and Suarez is...

    SILLY SEASON 2019

    And in a climate where only three drivers seem able to win a race, FRR would also be fools to let him go. As I said previous, it's in the best interest of both parties to work out a fair deal. He wont get a crazy salary of yesteryear, but I don't think he has to take a big discount over what...

    SILLY SEASON 2019

    I understand what you're saying. I just don't agree that that would be a wise approach for FRR and the Kenseth situation was completely different. Kenseth's contract was out of line with the current market realities of NASCAR. JGR was able to put a much cheaper good driver in the car and stay...

    CRANDALL: Dear NASCAR, your playoff system is broken

    Personally I don't have much use for championships in racing. I watch and attend races because I want to see good racing and hope that guys I like finish well, not because I want to see how today's race will have long term championship implications. In local short track racing I find that it's...

    CRANDALL: Dear NASCAR, your playoff system is broken

    36 races, 36 chartered teams. How about we eliminate 1 team after every race and reset the points for everyone remaining. Championship winner is the last team standing at the end of the season. Game 7 moment every week :rolleyes:
