Getting rid of some of the yellows will be an improvement but I am not holding me breath. As far as EFI goes, NASCAR is handling that the same way they do everything else. The EFI units will be totally controlled by NASCAR, not by the teams. These are cookie-cutter race cars that are virtually identical with different paint jobs.

Unhappy

Wayne,

Give Helton time and they will have Governors on the cars to make sure they all can only go the same top speed. I just don't see anything about them so far that makes it racing to me. I wish they would stop showing all of the NASCAR races and start showing more of the road races.

Ron

Ron,
That brings forth a lot of stuff. We can watch the 24 Hours of Daytona.

Yet, AMLS will not televise the 12 Hours of Sebring (it's only available on the internet). Who wants to watch a 12 hour race on his computer?

What other road racing series is worth watching?

I'll be watching the Daytona 500. It can be fun; like last year when a rookie in a Woods Brothers Ford #21 did something very remarkable:


Just saying.

Personally I think it would be better racing if they brought in 43 taxi's from New York and turned them loose.

I said it before, NASCAR will have "remote control" of the EFI systems before long....."Hey, back them damn Fords down some and give Junior some more RPMs, them sponsors are gittin' nervous"
