In my opinion Jack, NASCAR has no interest in down home racing. That ship has sailed. Now they are trying to stage an entertainment event for a TV audience not the fans in the stands. It is about revenue not racing. They need to get rid of the talking heads that love to listen to the sound of their voices. Why do we need all of the hype if the racing is so great?

The last thing they need is another mile and a half track. Bring back Rockingham and North Wilksboro. Bring in Iowa while getting rid of a race at Fontana, Charlotte, Loudon and Kansas.

Their officiating has become almost laughable. I still can't believe the whole Carl Long episode from a couple of years ago. The penalties don't fit the crimes anymore. They are trying to regulate the whole series like IROC. Identical cars that can't seem to find a race.

They do truly have the best sports marketing program out there. They have sold America a very substandard product. The best series that they have are the two modified tours. Yet they sadly don't do anything to market these programs. They race under the NASCAR banner without the big corporate sponsorships and little if any TV audience.

They sold their soul to corporate America and kicked the fans that got them there to the wayside. Now that rose has wilted.
