Looks like they had to tarp off a decent amount of seats again on the upper ends.
I REALLY hope they do this. The top 35 thing is retarded.Gardens35;1289349 wrote:Some changes in Qualifying? ....http://www.nascar.com/news/121006/nascar-considers-changes-for-2013/index.html

HOLY SHIT that was one hell of a "Big One"
They ran the entire GWC 4 wide, so you knew it was coming.
Kenseth wins.

Wow, can't believe they lasted as long as they did running like that. Wo knows how they'll sort out the finishing order.

Stewart had less than 4 tires on the ground for about 15 seconds straight.

Gordon was 16th when it started and he should finish 2nd.

That was bonkers. Unreal to see not only a wreck like that but the fact 20 cars were basically totaled

Definitely his fault, I don't think he thought Michael was coming as hard as he was. It was like someone shot him out of a cannon when Mears hooked up with himGoChiefs;1289847 wrote:Fuck you Tony Stewart.

Which is why I don't like NASCAR. That ain't racing. That is hoping you don't get in a crash on the last lap after riding in a car for hours. All the driver skill, crew skills and strategy meant nothing.Terry_Tate;1289837 wrote:Gordon was 16th when it started and he should finish 2nd.

At least it's not as bad as Formula one. F1 you are lucky to get a half dozen passes, on some tracks. Something's wrong when qualifying is more exciting than the actual race.WebFire;1289886 wrote:Which is why I don't like NASCAR. That ain't racing.

Throw in the fuel strategy races too. Hate them. Then the rest are ok. Except to Michigan and Pocono. And Texas.GoChiefs;1289944 wrote:Thats only 4 races out of 36.

Eh, I don't mind fuel strategy races. That's part of it. It's not about luck like restrictor plate racing.WebFire;1290029 wrote:Throw in the fuel strategy races too. Hate them. Then the rest are ok. Except to Michigan and Pocono. And Texas.
