Rate the Race: napa 200

I saw it was about an 8. The lack of talent kinda made you wonder "who's the ndxt caution" while weeding out the also-rans, the middle was a little boring, and the end was a surprise.

I'll go a 7. The first 20 laps of this race were a nightmare.

Amen! Once the "never should have raced" got weeded out, it wasn't too bad --- and I'm not a huge fan of road-racing. This one was pretty good toward the end.

I'll go a 7.5

[Lap3Forever]

The last lap was a 10. But what i saw of the rest of the race was pretty sucky

 

[Clutch]

Easily a 9

 

[VaDirt]

I missed most of the race, actually until the retart with about 25 to go (i think) where they went like 3-wide into the first turn. From then on, including the rediculously close finish was easy a 9.

8, could have been a 10 with more talent out there.

Does it seem like no big deal was made about Boris winning the race? The victory lane celebration was half assed and even the racing shows didn't make a big deal of it too much. Does everyone hate Said or something?

First 20 laps - 0
Middle - 4
Final laps - 7

I too, was disappointed that Marcos didn't win again. I turned it off, mad.

7.5, I am a road course fan and think that Montreal would be a great addition to the Cup schedule. Could you imagine a G-W-C- finish with Tony, Marcos, JPM and Harvick headed into turn 1?

Good deal for Said, he has been Road course trainer to the stars in the past and deserved the win.

Kudos also to Papis! Harvick should put him in his cars at the Cup road races next year.

I think Delana Harvick will be driving road courses next year for KHI.
