I think that maybe its Goodyear!! They are making the Tires too damn good!

I think Kurt Busch losing his ride and Kyle Busch being warned about how much he was "having at it" last year have both put a chill on the whole field.. "We don't want to end up in trouble like they did."

Who knows?
All the repaving they've been doing is taking a lot of the excitement out of it to. Bristol sure isn't the same. I think next week will bring on some entertainment with it being Talledega. Then again, it could just be another Daytona.

It seemed reasonable to me!

Actually, I'm not blaming them. I'm blaming the other SOB's out there who are too big o' pussies to DRIVE HARD and realize "KB" (either/both) crossed some big lines to get into the trouble they got into. They are not going to get into the same trouble for just driving hard and "rubbin's racin'."

All the repaving jobs have probably made drivers more cautious on those tracks, trying to figure out the limits. But, that doesn't explain the rest of the tracks.......

It was really cool out last night, and they seemed to have a lot grip maybe that was a factor....well everybody but Fucking Gordon, and Stewart on restarts!

Maybe the way the economy is, the owners might be telling the drivers to not wreck their shit. When was the last notable caution flag thrown for a wreck. The most excitement so far this year involved a damn jet dryer.

From what I saw, it reminded me a lot of what we saw in the "pairs racing" on the restrictor plate tracks.. "Everyone gets out there, spreads out, and not much happens until the next caution flag... oh, wait.. What caution flag!?"

If they have so much fWONking grip, where's the passing? Where's the bumping and banging? Why is the field spread out so much? Aren't these supposed "spec cars that are pretty much just alike," according to certain folks? Well, if that's the case, they should all be on each other's bumpers!

Maybe they're all afraid of having to "top" the jet drier incident and no one wants to "go first."

It seems to me like they're all afraid to race hard.. You might see one or two bumps here & there, but then they just "let it go." No one seems to be FIGHTING for the lead.. or pretty much ANY spot on the track!
