    It's awesome To see that 17 win. And a great run by Biffle as well.

    I actually don't mind Junior that much, I have more respect for him then I did for his dad. Junior at least admits when he is in the wrong. But when you listen to him talk to his crew on the radio compared to other top runners, you get the impression he just doesn't know the car inside at out. Especially when comparing to Carl Edwards, Kenseth, Biffle, both Busch brothers, Gordon, Johnson to name a few. Those guys just no those cars inside and out and what every adjustment will do.

    I've said it a million times, Junior is fast only when he is in a fast car. He can't take a average car and get it up front. But hey he attracts fans and sponsors, so he will always have a top ride.


    Now can we get rid of a few stupid rules i'll be happy... Lucky Dog rule, the top 35 rule. No provisional should be allowed. Bring back 2nd day qualifying and take the 43 quickest cars.

    so why do they keep saying everyone hates the two car tandem racing that we saw last year? i thought that shit was fun. this single file pack racing is for the birds.

    The average viewer likes to see big wrecks. Honestly they do. If every plate race was like that make up at Talladega years ago where they went without a caution, you would hear everyone bitch that they are boring.

    I thought the 2 car stuff was more interesting then the pack racing. But I come from the background of being around and building race cars, and i realize how much money and work goes into one. When I see a wreck that takes out multiple cars i just cringe.

    I prefer to see guys drive the freaking cars. Like it was intended. Pull off the plates, and get rid of all the down force, and make them use their brakes and things would be interesting. But it would end up a larger version of Michigan or California. And people don't like that, even though I've scene some really good races at those tracks.

    I'd like to see a couple 1 mile races at tracks like Iowa and phoenix, and another two 1/2 mile tracks.

    i like the idea of using brakes. :lol:

    i'm ok with the downforce...the thing i don't like, is we currently have a spec race and on these big tracks, it's put the pedal to the floor and cruise. i'd like to see them race "real" cars. let the teams put on different noses, and bodies. bring the creativity back and reward teams for trying new stuff vs. this cookie cutter approach that makes most races a snoozefest.

    outside of the fire, that was one of the most boring daytona 500's ever.

    The drawback is you'd be back to 1 or 2 cars in contention for a win each week. And the rest just out "riding" around.
