- Yeah, it's contracting like crazy...and it's made worse by the leadership's desire to tinker...old fans...they don't want the creative scoring - Will Hunting Jul 28, 10:57 3

      - I dunno -- it's a basic garbage race. Those cars don't move around there very well. - Will Hunting Jul 28, 11:12
Out of touch I agree, kinda stuck in the past reliving former glory. They do have a talented group of young drivers tho. -- nm - budice Jul 28, 10:53 4
- There's also the timing of racing coinciding with NFL -- nm - budice Jul 28, 10:54 3

    - I literally still do not understand how the chase works -- nm - MDH Jul 28, 11:15 1
