Like about 99% of the people on this board, i really wish the guys we watch at bloomington or williams grove or ventura had a legitimate shot at the 500. But all the wishing and complaining in the world isn't going to change the reality.
But look at the bright side: We're luckier than the old time nascar fans. How do you think they feel about provisionals and lucky dogs and boogity boogitys?
