Give it a 9.5.

DAMN! These races are getting better and better. I usually fall asleep during the 600 but not this year! The usual process in the 600 is to race hard the first third, cruise the second third and run super hard the last third. But not this year! There was racing from the time the green flag dropped until the checkers flew. Three wide, always a battle going on somewhere and all this after one of the more exciting Indy 500 races in recent years. Kudos to NASCAR for achieving a modicum of parity and to the teams who make it work! NASCAR is getting better all the time.
 
8

BS debris caution, didn't like the continuing trend of SHR cars blowing up, lots of great racing though!
 
Not bad.. good race... not as exciting as lately so Ill say 7.. with an additional .5 for that block Kenseth tried to throw on Jimmie.

7.5
 
I'll give it a 6.5 it became a bit messy there in the second half but was a good race.
 
5?, 6?, and 7... What in the world do you'ns expect at THAT track? As the previous 600 mile races go this one was a 9.999!
Or have you'ns seen Charlotte races before this one? Most times it has been "you get behind me and I'll get in front of you
and we will drive until the last 10 laps before we start to race.

That's YOUR opinion....
And what the hell is a you'ns?
 
Of course I am a bit bias because my favorite team won, but even more so, I was there in person to see JJ win. I have been to many 600's and this was one of the better ones. I give it a 8 in comparison to years past.
 
6.5. The first half was the most boring racing I've seen this year.
 
6.5...still gotta figure out the rules package for the 1.5 milers. Clean air is still king and spread out racing galore. The 600 paled in comparison to last weeks race. All my drivers but Junior made out pretty well, so it wasn't as bad as in years past.
 
I didn't watch much of it so I should give it an incomplete, but from what I saw, I'd go about a 6. This race has been upstaged by Indy the last several years.
 
I thought it was a pretty good race, I give it a 7 or 8.

Winner: I give him a 48. ;)
 
no doubt there was a race going on, the broadcast just didn't tell the whole story.

I feel like FOX's coverage was very poor and that there was much more racing than TV showed. Five of the top fifteen finishers started outside of the top twenty, but it seemed like most of the night we just watched Harvick and Johnson ride around.
