Like the post but not reading all the NASCAR fine print. Just don't care. For the good of the sport overall they should have bent the rules to suit Larson's needs. One time, next year, we already accommodated you.

Back when I was a kid there were many NASCAR (Taxi Cab) drivers doing Indy. I could name them but most here have some knowledge of it. Why? It paid a heck of a lot more. Same for the GP drivers who came over in '63 thru '70. As a Jim Clark aficionado I was shocked to read of just how little he was paid. Those cars were massively dangerous and he knew it. They all did. It's worth mentioning that Chapman kind of jipped Jimmy out of his winning Pace Car. Those were different times. Marketing was something the wife did!

NASCAR lost me when they went to segments. I quit being a die hard fan when the "car of tomorrow" or whatever they called it came to be. As passionate as I am about Silver Crown I never saw one of those spec cars turn a wheel and I have been to a boat load of Silver Crown, or Champ Car races.
