So, give them more rear spoiler, so they have more down force, because the drivers aren't smart enough to stay off each other's bumpers in the corners??

The pussification of America continues! :fume: :jester:
Ever entered a corner at 195?

Entering a corner at 195 has nothing to do with "ME"...or you either for that matter.

These guys are getting paid to be "Professional" race car drivers...
If they can't drive... they will be weeded out... "REAL QUICK"...

Dang it... it's supposed to be CAR RACING... not just taking a Sunday cruise till the end and then trying to sneak into the front for a win...

Heck... I wouldn't care if they made em go back to closer to stock bodies and got rid of "ALL" of the "MANDATED" spoilers and aero kits.
They could also loosen restrictions on the engines and drive trains.
Then the crew chiefs could build REAL CARS again... not the cookie cutter POS things that are out there now.

You can't tell one from the other without looking at the paint job...

The manufacturers want that to. They want the cars to resemble what is on the show room floor. There is an article on it somewhere. It's supposed to start taking place next year. :dunno:

Awww, c'mon, Joe! If your driver's so good, why didn't you use one of the slide-ways/sparks-everywhere pics for your avatar?? :jester: :lol:

"Looking" (more) like the street cars and BEING the street cars are two entirely different things..

I'd relate it to...... Taking pictures of a siding job and finishing a sliding job. :thumbs: :rollin:

Outta the two, I enjoyed Bristol way more then Daytona. The Daytona 500 atmosphere is fun of course, but as far as action goes, Bristol hands down.

My all time favorite track to see a race at is Richmond.
