I just want to chime in and say for the record, I'am not one of the fans there claiming hollard for the pack racing to return. I don't like seeing 10 to 20 cars being takin out every time someone gets out of line. The two car tandem is the quickest way around. Anyway, lets see those Hendrick cars scream. SS

I completely respect your opinion, but for me, I prefer this over the two-car tandems....it's far more exciting, and if NASCAR wants to keep promoting their drivers as "the best in the world", and paying them as such, then they should be good enough for "pack racing".

As for the drivers who complain about it; like a wise man once said; "...they should tie kerosene rags to their ankles to keep the ants from crawling up and eating their candy asses."

It takes far more skill to race in a pack than it does to follow another driver around the track.

It was my first time ever going to a NASCAR race.

I did hear that this was the first time it's ever happened in its history..

That's not what we want to hear but thanks for update. If they had ran it the day before presidents day they would have been fine. Hope you have a dry place to wait it out. Wish I was there but without the rain......
