Spotters are very much necessary in NASCAR. They provide saftey to the drivers. Stock cars are alot larger compaired to a sprint/midget. They allow the drivers to know when they are clear of other cars when passing and getting passed. Without spotters the amount of wrecks would skyrocket, espically on the bigger tracks, where simply touching another car can cause a giant multi car accident. The spotters also inform the drivers of upcoming incidents such as slower cars and wrecks. The caution lights are almost not needed because the spotter informs the driver of yellow/red flags on the track. The spotters let the driver know immediately.
Also for what its worth pitstops have been there from the begining and are an intresting part of NASCAR or any other long distance race. They really make the racing more intresting alot of the time.
Lastly, if you don't like NASCAR in its current form then why watch? Go to a local show and support whatever kind of racing you like. Then, maybe, if enough people support their local short track, then maybe that kind of racing would wind up on TV...
