[quote billb]Downhill, how ?
It's a bigger business now than it's ever been.
Everything changes.
The current challenges seem to be piquing some people's interest.
But they are losing the hardcore NASCAR fan in the process. Restrictor plates, Too many cookie cutter 1.5 mile tracks, now the clonemobile C.O.T... and don't even start me on the lucky dog.
When newbie fans go on to the next big sport, NASCAR will be hurting and realize they alienated the true fans by dumping short tracks and making everything boringly equal.
of course, I want them to do one race on a dirt track - now that would be fun.
