    A full field is 40 now they cut it from 43 a couple years ago
    Only in racing does a person knowingly put on a dud show, and then blames everyone else for not appreciating their dud show.

          Exactly. I’d just run a half lap back and let half the field crash and make a real payday lol. Super speedway racing is trash

            The best thing Nascrap could do to breathe life into tar car racing is have their 40 "stars" go race midweek short-track events every week across the country.

            Better yet...put their retired guys on tour.

            Kenseth, Lil' E, Stewart, Carl Edwards, Gordon. Let them travel town to town and battle the "locals" at a track near you.

            The hell with the 1.5 mile cookie cutter horse manure they put on TV each week.

            Been saying this for years. Go to a short track format. Time trial heat race b main and a feature. Daytona, Taladega and nothing bigger than Bristol. You'll start seeing fans return.

            However, they own too many large tracks and it'll bankrupt too many people to leet the big tracks sit.

            They have to decide fix raxing, small tracks, or keep friends out of bankruptcy

Those of us who took an interest in Cup racing through those days are saddened by how it's been gutted and trivialized by silly rules and policies over the past decade and a half. Many of us would love to see it regain that excitement and relevance.

                  Bottom line is this, your opinion of Cup racing today is legit and is shared by myself and many, many others but it hasn't always been this way and if it can be revived to it's former glory it would make a lot of us very happy.
                  I used to watch every race every Sunday all through the late 90's until up about 3-4 years ago. I bet I haven't watched a total of 6 hours of NASCAR since. I've been to Bristol, Michigan, Martinsville, Charlotte for the 600 and All-Star race, Indianapolis, Daytona. I've started spending my time and money on traveling around to regional dirt tracks following the late models mainly, while hitting a few WoO sprint shows. I can go to multiple dirt tracks on any given Fri & Sat night (Sometimes hitting 2 tracks the same weekend) and watch better racing and save a lot of money and don't need to be there for 6 - 8 hours like NASCAR.

                    all them dam fricken pit road penalties,water bottle cautions, debris suspect cautions,and know stage fricken racing and all these stupid chase points racing is all this fricken crap necessary to keep dragging these races on and on and even green white checkered dragging it on and on,granted goodyear is a good asphalt tire but there are others just as good if not better than goodyear brings some terrible tires to some tracks and it really shows it`s pitiful is due to the lack of testing, nascar needs a big change asap.

                      Throw the restrictor plates in the dumpster, and I can assure everyone, youll have to fight to get a ticket to Daytona or Dega. Its not rocket science. People want speed and danger. Why they ever started screwing with it just makes no sense. They had the sports world by the balls, now they cant give tickets away. Sad

                        If they could guarantee that no cars would end up in the stands, they probably would. If a 1955 Lemans style tragedy were to happen in this age of social media, auto racing as a whole would be over.
