No, I found it better than past races. I thought that the car really did improve the racing. There were over 35 lead changes and many position changes throughout the race. Only 2 caution flags for the first 160 laps, so a lot of drivers did get into a ride along mode, but there was still racing going on. The Gibbs cars were definitely the class of the field and the other teams figured out that they needed to line up just to keep up with the 20 and 18. The end of the race was just a display of impatience. Drivers trying to force a position instead of racing clean for it/blocking when there is no chance for the other driver to avoid hitting you. That to me drags the race on needlessly. The end was a great finish IMO.

Edit: Keep in mind that I went into this race thinking it would be boring, but what I saw was a lot of passing, some side by side racing and overall a good race. You must also keep in mind that anytime you put the restricter plate into play, the cars will end up running faster in a line, so unless they get rid of restricter plates at the super speedways, there will always be the line up.
