Well, the confusion, or at least that is one possible explanation to the overkill by Bruton Smith, NASCAR and Good Year. All three had the same idea of trying to correct recent problems at Lowe's Motor Speedway and were on the same page but were they talking to each other ??
It looked as if it were a repeat of the pit crew competition held earlier but was instead, held during the "Coca-Cola Pit Stop 600".
Good Year providing a harder compound tire, was reminiescent of the days when truck tires were used and the mystery then, as now, was how long they would last and who was willing to push them up to or past the limit.
BUt alas, that was then and this is now.
If there were a rate the race thread, racing, crammed in between pit stop competition and commercial messages, could be rated as a 7 as there was some side by side.
It will be interesting to note the comments of others. It was noted by Mike Joy at the conclusion of the event, as entertainment.
Joy said what he thought while Waltrip and McReynolds scrambled and were tripping over thier tounges trying to make nice in thier comments without offending the sanctioning body.
