Have you watched a COT race? It has improved the racing a bit by making the less aerodynamic and less sensitive to damage, similar to how it was when I started watching it as a kid 15 years ago. The cost has been that all the cars are virtually identical except for engines. Even then, there are only about a half dozen engine shops in Nascar these days.
I agree with the rest of what you said though

I've watched, and attended, NASCAR races with the COT.
I agree with your statement that the cars are more "durable", but the racing hasn't improved.
I've witnessed it, and its been said be numerous drivers; the COT makes side by side racing difficult, and theres still aero-issues, ie; pushing, unless you're out in front.
Its gotten so bad that I finally chose not to renew my tickets for Talladega, Charlotte, and the Daytona 500 (which took over 4 yrs. to get on the list for.)
