^^ Ditto, I stopped watching because of the way NASCAR where heading with the program a few years back. Personally I would have though that they would do away with the Nationwide series and kept the truck series instead. The reason I say that, is that the Nationwide Series seems to be too close to the cup series, I like the trucks because it added distinctiveness, plus they spoke to their initial audience (rednecks) (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif) . If they do away with them you have 2 series that are very similar run at the same places (most of the time), and have the same top drivers. I think if they want to ramp up a feeder series they should leave that to Arca Remax Series or Hooters Pro Cup. As far as adding more Road Courses to the schedule I'm all for that as that opens the market for them (More Tracks available to them) and I would love to see a Nascar Race at Mid-Ohio.

Yeah, NASCAR at Mid-Ohio, in the rain! (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/nutkick.gif) I only watch the road course NASCAR races. Hubby and I are big fans of Formula 1 and the American Lemans/Rolex GT series. That's some good drivin'! I also like Indycar but not enough road courses in that series for me.

I love those suggestions for NASCAR from the big three. Someone with juice needs to get real with that roundy round personality-fest! (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/mad.gif)
