Thanks for posting the ASR ratings. I don't track the non-points races but was going to do the ASR anyway but never got around to it. I was curious to see how they were rated.

yeah I was curious also, couldn't stand it. I didn't throw out the high and low score

If you told me 3 months ago that the Coke 600 would score within a quarter of a point of Martinsville, and higher than both plate races so far, I'd have laughed at you

That's... nothing short of amazing.

It's good to see the Coke 600 being more well-received. I know last year's was pretty bad, especially the conclusion of the race. For me, the awfulness of the conclusion of the 2017 Coke 600 was up to the tenth power.

How did the 2016 Coke 600 fare?

It got a 6.11. This year's race was dominated in similar fashion, but the racing behind the leader was much better this year.

Martinsville got a 7.45 this year, and Daytona and Talladega are lower than 7.2

Thanks. I was curious for ... reasons.

The racing was much better. For once, 600 miles truly felt worth watching!

not my world. For comparison and a just a wee bit larger sampling. Michigan did have the lowest people voting at a bit over 4,000. a lot of plateaphobia panic.

Around here, the Cup race probably benefitted some from being compared to the Meadow Muffin 200 the day before.

It would have made it if not for the 3 and 5.

Why single out the low numbers? It would have made it if any of the ratings that weren't '10' had been half a point higher (including mine).

Because the same ones post the 1s 2s and 3s every week? Makes one think that racing isn't their cup of tea.

Of course I did. We went on a Lake Michigan dinner cruise aboard the Odyssey and loved it.

 

[ToyYoda]

The 3 got tossed because I always drop the lowest and the highest, but that means I also dropped one of the 10's. The 5 did it in.

yep they usually line up on the rail, and use shocked, sh!t show, ridiculous, how can Nascar call this a race every year? in the racing thread. Pretty much the same ones every year..pretty funny actually. The rest of us enjoy the heck out of it.

Don’t get me wrong, I have no problem bashing a dull race. But plate race ratings get unfairly downgraded on here.
