Noticed France said we shouldn't measure the success by attendance and ratings. Said the real metric was "engagements" so online was included.

Uh huh. This sounds like Lou Tepper saying "we have statistically achieved our objective " after Auburn kicked our arse.

Same here. It started for me when they stopped racing back to the yellow, and went to the cookie cutter tracks and single car design. The Chase just comes off as contrived. No other racing series does junk like this. I used to spend hours every Sunday watching, and recording the races. I haven't watched a full race in 2 or 3 years. I tried to start watching again last year, but couldn't get interested in it again.

F1 kind of bores me. It's just watching a bunch of guys up front doing hot laps.I still watch though.

I think currently Indy Car has the most exciting racing going. Lots of passing fun to watch. I just wish Louisiana wouldn't have fricked up again, and we would have the race back in LA.

Trans-Am racing is also pretty fun to watch.

Back when Fox Sports 1 was the SPEED Channel, they used to show the V8 Supercar Series. Talk about a lot of fun to watch. These guys were throwing these cars around and using each other up. Wish they still showed the races here, but guess Fox doesn't find Australian racing interesting.

W/ an Avg finish of 24th for her career, it looks like Sponsors are finally catching on and kicking themselves for wasting money.

They also moved Kurt Busch down to B. Hopefully my B drivers do better this year than they did last year.

Kurt will be our Edwards I think this year. I am just going to see if I have a clue on C drivers, last year it was no brainers just flip them every week then Gordon got brought in and you were like okay this is easy.

Because that is what drew so many to Nascar and he single-handedly killed it. Let them race production cars with added safety equipment at lower speeds and let them race like they used to. Problem solved.


Exactly, NASCAR really REALLY needs to return to its roots regarding the car formula. Getting back to its roots in terms of drivers, owners, etc., well, that's going to be a tough nut to crack because so much of the racing infrastructure that bred those characters is gone now.
