what are you trying to twist out of shape now? there wasn't an "all" in there bud. But now that you mention it, nothing but short tracks isn't what I want to see, a variety.... post # 42 is what I said. I've seen everything from boring to great on all of them
you remember why Smith changed Bristol? whiners complaining about no passing single lane racing.
I doubt it. Stenhouse never has impressed me with being the sharpest stick in the bunch. He was busy side drafting the inside line when Kurt wanted a push to the front and that was Ford to Ford.
I'll worry about that when players start careening off the field and flying up in the stands.change the field, I am so tired of watching 100 yards...it's ridiculous they are handicapping the faster players.
I don't have any pre conceived notions of how a race or a track will produce a race. Some posters are convinced it is going to be terrible when dpkimmel2001 posts the race thread at the first of the week. I consider that nonsense. I don't pay much attention to the presses hype either, they have a job to do.
The guy making the move shouldn't be dependent on someone else's assistance, shouldn't have to care if anybody pull out with him or not. That's a reason plate racing sucks, although not the biggest one.
that is your opinion, that happens on all tracks, differently but how many times do two teammates rig the restart.
Didn't want to lift because he'd lose the draft.
They don't have to rig the restart, they choose to. Choose to pull out at a plate race and you aren't going anywhere by yourself except backwards.
that isn't real or genuine racing..totally fabricated.Can't wait till we get to fix this whole plate racing thing again in early July. Between now and then we've got a roval to work on though, so let's not forget that.
not really, I don't know how many times I saw Junior pull out and muscle his way to the front. IMO the teams had this car so tweaked out it wasn't happening..changes will come.
yeah spotters can do only so much, if the drivers had input that would be cool.
The left turns are all real. The rights are fabricated.
If we have to have plate racing, I'd love to see a return to the tandem package. That was the only form of plate racing I actually enjoyed. If drivers are going to be forced to work together, pull out the stops. Let 'em pair up and talk to each other. Hell, let 'em declare their pairs after final practice and award both drivers the points of higher finisher. What's one more rules exception?
I was a fan of that package too. Heck I even posted an idea for a redesigned Harley J. Earl trophy back in 2012 for the Daytona 500.
no second place is the first looser anymoreI was a fan of that package too. Heck I even posted an idea for a redesigned Harley J. Earl trophy back in 2012 for the Daytona 500.
If I see a sedan on the road, unless I'm close enough to see the badge, I can't tell one from the other. Sometimes even the SUVs look alike.You can't?
Certainly true of the vehicles on the road. They all tend to be the same design anymore. About the only thing that sets them apart, like NASCAR, is the front grill area. Other than that, it's a wash. They are pretty dang interchangeable..... again, like NASCAR.
Have we fixed plate racing yet?
