It's a little early for this thread but it isn't going to matter.
I'll give it a zero. Talladega sucks. Plate racing sucks. It doesn't matter who wins. Talladega needs to be redeveloped and condos built on the "racing" surface. Wake up NASCAR. :owquitit:
 
I don't know which kind of Talladega is worse ---
the stomach-churning, pace-the-floor, pack race
or
the fall-asleep-in-the-middle race.


I'll rate it a 1. Only because it was cars going around a track.
 
0 completely unwatchable. I never thought I would say this but I hope if Nascar ever starts taking races away from a track they should consider Talladega because this aint racing.
 
Can we rate a negative number?

Between the insanity on the track and the overabundance of commercial breaks on ESPN, this race became a chore to watch.

1.0 only because the final half-mile was pretty good.
 
i'll give it a 1. should really shorten the race to 10 laps because that's all that counts at talladega.
 
That was insanity. When you have Championship contenders riding around in the back for 90% of the race, that's not racing.

I give it a 2, only because the two Busch brothers wrecked. :D

And how in the world did Hamlin pull off 8th?

Harvick was a victim of a crash.

Jimmie was a victim of Chad being too scared to let him run up front. Jimmie and Jr. should have made every effort to lead every lap.

Ugh...
 


10 because I got to go fishing this morning caught some nice fish made it home just in time for the race to start ate lunch took a little nap and watched the race RCR 1&2 Harvick came back to finish 32nd and Ragan Smith is okay
 
2 Let's only hope fuel injection eliminates plate racing forever
 
A 2 just because Edwards extended his lead on Jimmy. My all time favorite daga race was 1997 race that Mark Martin won and there were only 3 cautions & 1 was for rain.
 
I watched. Too many comm's, couldnt see **** in the side by side, but drivers drove mostly smart. 3
 
gotta give the announcers credit. 3 hours of babble with complete admission that none of it matters til the last ten laps.

plate races suck. and i will never change my mind. wish they would move them all into the chase so i could just give up my wishful thinking and completely dedicate my tv time to the nfl.

at least bowyer and burton ran 1-2.
 
The race was a 2 at best...but the sleep I got during the race was a very SOLID 8!

I actually watched the whole thing. That said, The road courses and the plate races were the only ones I've watched this year.

Well, at least you got to see some good racing on the Road Courses! They were both solid races!
 
this race sucked so bad. I dvr'd it and wound up fast fowarding most of it. Nascar has made my favorite track into one i don't plan on watching again. I'll give it a .5 since Kyle Busch didn't win.
 
8, there's nothing wrong with the racing, plus I guarantee when it evolves again you all will complain about that too. NASCAR the only sport where fans can never be satisfied.

I'm not one to complain about much (I complain about the chase but then again who doesn't?) but there is no way to defend this 2 car pushing garbage.

Talladega was my favorite track growing up and it's still on my list of things to do but I refuse to go there until this 2 pack nonsense is over and done with. It ruins the races.
 
JJ's chase hopes are getting dimmer and dimmer and Stewart still has a shot at the cup.

HMMMMMM!

Take a guess. ;)
 
I saw plenty of pre-plate races where cars were spread out all over the track. That was boring compared to yesterday. I give it an 8.
