Rate the race - Fontana

It wasn't necessarily a fuel mileage race as in the past, there were some passing, pushing and shoving, so I'll give it a 7.5 for the race

But a 10 for the winner!
 
Most of the race was boring, but the finish was awesome. So I'd give it a 7 also.

10 for Jimmie though. :D
 
I can't rank this snooze fest better than a 5. They reeeaaalllyyy need to look at all the empty seats, and the boring ass racing (or lack thereof). I can't even watch the race it's so boring. Every time I change the channel back to it, there's 1 or more seconds between every car.
 
I will give it a 7 because I thought for a California race it was extreamly good. There was racing everywhere
 
up till the last 65 laps I will say a 2

the last 65 laps I am giving an 8 (it had its exciting parts not knowing what the weather would do, and of course RcR did great)
 
From what I saw of it, I'd give it a solid 7. Best California Cup race I've ever seen.

I just wish Harvick would've won but I had JJ and Sliced Bread in fantasy so it was a good day for me.

Agreed, looked like a ARCA race crowd at best. More fans were at the very last Rockingham race than was out there watching today. Pathetic!!!
Lets build a track on Long Island!!!:sarcasm:

and do they not have trash cans???????I bet that's why Bowyer was overheating.
 
I was watching this exciting event @ Fontana until I found out Olympic Curling was on. It was great until Norway took the lead. It seems like they win every year! :rolleyes:

Actual race rating = 7.5

Subtract 2 for another Jimmie Johnson win.

Final result = 5.5

Yep i agree don't where you can get off giving this race anything less than a 6, there was a lot of 3,4, and even 5 wide racing at times. I'd be more than willing to bet if Fox didn't focus so much at the front all the time some of your opinions would change. I still think that this track should only get 1 date though based on the attendance.

I agree, I really think they should go back to The Rock.
 
I only saw the last 45 laps, but what I saw was at least a lot better than Daytona. Have a mentioned I hate plate "racing"? I'd much rather see a finish like we had yesterday where there were 3 cars in serious contention in the last 10-15 laps or so and driver skill and not the luck of being in the right line of traffic determined the winner.

From what I saw, I'd give it an 8.

Have you seen the "crowds" at the ARCA races at Rockingham?

Epic championship battle between Lofton and Kligerman and they had, maybe, 2,000 people in the stands.
 
On another note, I think a lot of you are rating this race low simply because Johnson lucked his way in to VL (again). I thought it was a really good race from what I saw of it.
 
Not bad for a California race. I'll give it a 7.

Had some slow spots, but when was the last time we saw a battle like that in the closing laps at Auto Club?
