    Nascar's startin to stink.

    This bump and run over someone policy is for the birds. Kevin harvick took out the logano kid on the last lap. He couldn't pass him so spin him out. he even kinda admitted he done it on purpose. he knocked the kid out of fifth place. Now i don't have a lot of favorites in nascar but that ain't racing. That's like some of these small town dirt tracks around here, Shoot. i think they would black flag some of the drivers for doing that crap. Probably be doing the same thing today in the sprint cup series. Some people like the rough driving and fights after the race. Not me. I like a good clean race. If you can't pass the guy don't take him out.Geez. I'm gonna watch the race today and if it happens again and they don't black flag the driver, I'm through watchin nascar.

    You're bored with it cause it's so clean that women can compete
    Like Garlits said of Top Fuel when he invented the rear engine dragster..."so easy that women will be driving them soon".
    The sport needs some excitement back like the days of Yarborough / Allison, etc.
    waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay too boring now.

    Well i will agree with that. Let em run what they bring. All the stuff nascar makes em buy from them makes it boring. I won't even watch a restrictor plate race, That's like watchin paint dry.

    Letting them run what they bring just means the team with the deepest pockets wins...... I agree that some of the restrictor plate races get boring, but the main purpose is safety,,,, BUT it also puts the challenge back into the drivers ability.

    I agree! Evidently they are taking a pretty good hit in the wallet and that is why they are 'relaxing the rules' now and letting them trade paint again.

    That may bring some back, but it may just backfire on them (pun intended).

    I disagree... with the plates on it depends on luck and if somebody 'pushes' you to the win.

    Yup, now i know that in racing you're get get bumped, But the inteninally taking out someone should be a banned driver IMO. I would rather watch someone try and pass in the race instead of just spinning them out. BTW: How's the back feeling today, hope your gettin back to normal.

    Not too bad... it is telling me I need to be out walking around, but it is hard to get motivated to go outside when it is crappy out.

    Sounds like you had a wild ride with 'taking two'?
