It has gotten way to long. A debris caution for balloons on the track can take 7 or 8 minutes. A crash will take 10-15 minutes to get racing again. I watched part of a Bristol race a couple years ago and 20% of the race was run under caution. Who really has 4-5 hours of free time to sit there and watch commercials with a few minutes of racing in between????

Do a search on NASCAR loosing attendance and how they are forcing the track owners to remove seating. If they remove 20-50,000 seats, they can sell less tickets and still get a sell out. Then the idiot announcers can brag about how NASCAR sold out.

Competition cautions are what did it for me. What a joke!


If NASCAR want to save itself they need to:
1. Bring back the Saturday night short track racing set up. Qualify, heat 1, heat 2 and then the main event.
2. Get another tire manufacturer or two. Michelin and Hoosier Racing tire can beat Goodyear.
3. Give the teams more freedom to modify the cars.
4. Lower ticket prices. How much will 4 tickets, food and drinks for 4 cost you?
