I really wish they could have shown the World of Outlaws race on Speed tonight instead of the NASCAR race. That was one helluva race tonight....the dash was a good one with Cody Darrah making a great move to pass two cars in the final corner to finish second. He led the feature for a while before Jason Sides took over...and Joey Saldana, who led the first two laps, tracked Jason down and slid him in the final set of corners to take the win! Haud ended up third, and Stevie Smith and Steve Kinser ran their butts off to finish in the top-five....woulda been much better TV tonight!!

I think there is lots of skill required; I just think it's a completely different skill than what's required for "normal" racing.

For those that are not familiar its basically the leader by themselves and the rest of the field double file behind.
Growing up in California, the few tracks that restarted like that called it a Texas restart. Now that I live in Texas, most fendered classes (and mods) use that kind of restart. Until there are too many yellows, that is.

IMHO this is better action than either the ARCA or Shootout race.

I don't follow Napcar either but i did watch last night. During the year i do watch the races from only 3 specific tracks: Daytona, Talladega and Bristol. Do you see a pattern here? :confused:

I would rather watch a Lifetime movie and check to see how the sprint car guys are faring during the commercials. That's how little I care for neckcar.
