With the NASCAR season about to start I have got to admit I am not very excited this year. For the last 2 night the wife and I watched coverage of the East Bay Park Lucas Oil late model series racing live from Tampa,Florida, and it was exciting.
Nascar is losing it's grip to dirt track racing and they need to wake up before it's all gone. MAV tv had excellent coverage and the track knew how to move the program right a long.
I have never been a fan of late models but that is beginning to change.

Agree. How many Nascar motors does it take to make 11,000 hp? 330 mph in 1,000 ft?
Rt. 66 the end of May.

NFL Football = ML Baseball = Pro Bowling = nap time What about this new Alliance League Football? I will get excited when it moves the start date to compete with NFL someday or at least overlap some of it. With spring stuff starting (soccer, lacrosse, racing, baseball, and fishing) I don't think it can survive, but I hope so.

I know what you are saying though. Close quarter racing is interesting to watch, much more so than the restrictor plate racing where 1 crash can wipe out the majority of the field. I just wish that NASCAR would implement having to run rain tires just like they do on the majority of other races = Indy, Formula 1, etc.

Who wants to sit in the rain and watch a race. Rainy days are made for napping.
