    Yup, yer right.... Just let em run wide open, kill em all and let God sort it out!!!! Restrictor plates are not the answer, true. Time for another driver's boycott of BOTH the restrictor plate tracks. The cars are way too fast and too equal (with or without the plates) to run there. Life is full of risks, intelligent people avoid the unnecessary one...... Race fans go to see the race, maybe the wreck em rodeo crowd should try a Demolition Derby..... Wrecking is a part of racing, but anything done to make the wrecks less violent and less hazardous to the people involved is a positive step.

    There is no good defense of that wreck fest that happened yesterday.... Just plain stupid to subject drivers, fans, and their equipment to that crap..... That ain't racing, just entertainment for the blood and guts crowd....

    Not a helluva lot of racing going on when you got 9 wrecks during the race. That's a lot of low speed cautions. Although I have to admit, Carl Edwards attempt at flying was interesting to watch.

    I used to watch every televised NA$CAR race a few years back. But I rarely take the time to watch many today. I can have just as much fun in my garage.

    Maybe it's time to get back to the basics. Like the annual Checkered Flag Jalopy Showdown in York Springs, PA. Just good old racing in the dirt.... or mud. Rain never stops the fun..
