Yea, the wreckfest that constituted as the "end of the race" is sooooooooo much better.

I just watched the race, I was at a wedding all weekend (tried to talk him out of it...).
Congrats to David Ragan on a much-deserved first win. Congrats to RFR.
What a pathetically, ridiculous race. I hope Brian France pulls his head out of his a$$ while there are still some fans left. This ain't racin'.
PLATE RACING SUCKS.

And this wreck was different from the big wrecks that happened during the pack racing in what way?

You couldn't wait until you saw all the replays to see the 5 came down? Even Mark said he came down.****ING Logano

The "good old days" ??
Yeah, I'm still scratching my head over that one. Joey agrees to hook up and push Mark, but stays in the gas and wrecks him. "I could have let him in, but he could have moved up". What? If you changed your mind about pushing Mark, the least you could do is let him know.
NASCAGE, that ROFL demonstration is great.

I will attempt to explain why I prefer this type of plate racing over the past 20 years or so. 43 cars start the race. You can immediately drop the low 7 in the field as they will probably park within the first 10 laps. This leaves 36 cars running in packs of 2. Thus I see it as 18 cars slicing and dicing over the 400-500 miles, depending which track and race their running. There are constant lead changes happening as no one pair can dominate continually thru out the race. Not counting the last 5 laps, there are a lot less wrecks happening during the race, which causes more cars to be running at the end, which when they get bunched up like they did, a wreck is probably going to happen as all cars are racing for the win. And I believe everyone here wants every driver to race for the win, not just ride around for points like what usually happens. I realize the long time fan just can't accept this type of racing, but you have to look at it in a completely different way. Would I want this for 36 races, no way. But the 4 plate races have been different types of racing ever since the plates were added, so you really can't compare them to the other 32 races during the season. I accept that I'm in the minority ragarding the 2 man tango racing, but I have long hated the pack racing and bump drafting racing that proceded this, so I see this as an improvement. Thanks for your time. Bill

I don't feel so bad now about missing the last couple of races, because I couldn't care less about road course racing at Sonoma, and it sounds like I didn't miss anything from the Coke Zero 400.
