That's just not true. The lack of Cup drivers is also why it gets shunted off to the ESPNews ghetto.
Didn't hear from Larson..
Whatever happen to him? Golden oportunity without cuppers wasted.
Started with some sort of fuel issue, then a loose wheel and finally no brakes.Didn't hear from Larson..

two weeks in a row his pit crew has screwed him up. told him to stay out with a tire rub last week, and he walled it. This week, fuel issue..probably didn't get gas in it, loose wheel..he said he had a vibration..they told him, to stay out and then the brakes went outDidn't hear from Larson..

He went out earlier. They interviewed him.
They said he lost his brakes.Didn't hear from Larson..

Would you rather have seen Kyle Busch, Harvick, Logano or Keselowski win by 10 seconds?
I like the idea of participation, Not infiltration.Are you purposefully misunderstanding my point?
Cup drivers drive fan interest. That's what's known as a fact. There aren't enough hard-core fans to justify the Nationwide series if some Cup drivers don't race in it. The current business model of the Nationwide series requires Cup driver participation.

Richmond Spring race was also moved to ESPNews.

Penske is carrying the water for Ford pretty much all alone.
No cup drivers in NNS = no NNS. The sponsors would bail. How do people not understand this?
I can't watch because of the start and parks , they ruin the racing for me .

I thought it was a little bit of a dull race, but good win for Blaney although he didn't seem too thrilled about the win.
I think he is just pretty laidback in nature. Plus he was probably tired after being chased by Hornish and Dillon all night.I thought it was a little bit of a dull race, but good win for Blaney although he didn't seem too thrilled about the win.
Maybe the answer is to keep cup teams, and their bottomless pit of money, out of nationwide. It could help even things up instead of total domination.I'm still stumped why so many focus on drivers rather than the cup affiliated teams. We all saw Kyle Busch race for a non-affiliated team. The KB dominance was nowhere to be seen.
The nationwide series did flourish prior to 01.I don't know what their business model is but I doubt there was ever a plan for total domination by Cup drivers. If they weren't there, we'd still see good racing, rivalries and likely see some different faces/cars/sponsors for a change.
I think the NWS may actually flourish if the NWS drivers received the majority of the spotlight. They have personality, can drive and aren't afraid to mix it up when they have to.
I looked back at the Nationwide tv schedule that I have hanging on my fridge @ home. This race was on the schedule for ESPNews since the schedule came out at the beginning of the year. Likewise for Richmond.That's just not true. The lack of Cup drivers is also why it gets shunted off to the ESPNews ghetto.

In fact, I'd venture to say the reason Nationwide is exiting is because the Nationwide Series is just a glorified Sprint Cup Series practice session. Series has no identity. And the stuff with drivers only being eligible for points in one series compounded that problem.
