7. Too reliant on aero but at least strategy won out and not phantom cautions.

Not terribly interesting outside of what happened on pit road and atop the pit boxes. Aero-dependent, flat-out racing with hard tires that put track position at a premium.

 

[RFK-PensekeFan]

7 A good number of different leaders and pit strategies plus plenty of action.

 

[Flyer22]

2 -- BS penalties ruined the race. I quit after stage 2.

 

[StandOnIt]

8 good stuff, lots of comers and goers. Fuel strategy, lots of action. If the tires would have been a bit more of a factor, it would have been a ten

[Jorge De Guzman]

6. I wasn’t entertained that much, track position still king. Good strategy with pit stops at the front though

 

[Spotter22]

10. Racing and strategy.

 

[Nitro Dude]

7 even though I didn't really have a driver in it all day. It had some pretty good action and was better then last year imo.

 

[Towmater]

8, because somebody lost the lead all by himself and then hit a wall.

 

[Charlie Spencer]

7. For whatever reason, I never got into this one.

 

[Turtle84]

5 The novelty of "the package" wore off towards the end.

 

[Fordracing7]

5 this package is more annoying than exciting to me

 

[Switchback]

5, it's better than pack racing but I prefer more hp and less drag.

Best Texas ever imo

 

[Efisher131]

6 I guess. Really got boring at the end

 

[FearThe4]

8

one of the best Texas Races I've seen.

 

[DUN24]

5. Extremely annoying watching a faster car not able to make a move because there are two people hooked up on the high side.

It was still interesting to see where everyone ended up thru all the strategy. If this race is 400 miles we don't see the green flag sequences the way we did.

8...After today , I am convinced it is Goodyear, not NASCAR, that is negatively affecting the racing.

[hidesert cowboy]

5 cars had lots of trouble passing. The inside line would bog down on restarts

 

[Conover]

8.5 for good racing throughout the field and plotting by teams for getting position.

It kept my attention the whole time. Whether it was the on-track battles, the new names running up in the top ten, the pit road fumbles, or the plentiful exchanges of the lead we saw today, it actually turned out to be great to watch. I am not even docking anything from my rating for Denny Hamlin winning the race; that is how satisfied I am with today's racing.

 

[Mispeedway15]

7 but damn Gibbs and Penske are way better than everyone. I will day this package has reduced the margin for error, simply if you can’t hold it wide open you have no chance which is why your aggressive drivers are killing it
