Originally posted by bigblue_dl View PostI really didn't think it was boring. Those last 30 laps were pretty good in my book. I loved to see the racing strategy between Kenseth and Biffle on all of the restarts. You'd think that Jr. could have slipped past on the low side if he and whoever was behind him at the time teamed up and made a push right when Kenseth went high to pick up Biffle, but that never happened. Oh well, I'd rather see Kenseth win than Jr. anyway.Code:As of 9/21/10: As of 9/13/10: College Hockey 6 College Football 0 BTHC 4 WCHA FC: 1

Re: Nascar 2012
Originally posted by dxmnkd316 View PostYeah, I guess it's a matter of preference. I'm hoping they open up the radiators a hair more. The thing that killed teams from moving up the outside was the cars getting too hot, having to move out of the line to cool off, only to cause a wreck. These cars are far too unstable to have that much lateral movement. You so much as look at the left rear wrong and you'll spin the car.Having a clear conscience just means you have a bad memory or you had a boring weekend.

I just don't want to get to the point of having the 2 car tandems for the entire 200 miles, because that wasn't interesting to me at all. They need to find the right balance.Code:As of 9/21/10: As of 9/13/10: College Hockey 6 College Football 0 BTHC 4 WCHA FC: 1

Re: Nascar 2012
They say the popularity of the sport is starting to die. I have a solution.
Ramps. And fire. Ramps and fire.
Now you may say that's crazy, but are you telling me you wouldn't like seeing a photo-finish involving two airborne cars that just jumped over a wall of fire? Exactly.
I missed the race up until they got the caution laps going after Montoya's blunder. How in the world did they manage to crash on the 2nd lap?Go Green! Go White! Go State!

Originally posted by Craig P.

There's nothing special about lap 2 that makes it less likely than any other lap to have a crash like that—in fact, I'd say it's more likely because various damage and mechanical issues hasn't thinned out the field yet so there are more cars in the pack.
