    They need a road course, a race at Bristol and a finale at Daytona in the chase. They need to make landfills out of Texas and California.
    I remember when hot rods were all home made.

    Well, I think they should keep one of the tracks, heck if nothing else a guy can watch the start, take a nap, watch the finish and really miss nothing.... Us old guys do need our nap time, you know????

    I still think they need to take a long, hard look at the new track in Iowa for a Sprint race, do away with 1 of the 1 1/2 mile tracks, and maybe even add a dirt race!!!!! Anything other then a whole flock of 1 1/2 mile tracks.... I do realize they're not all the same and each track takes an entirely different chassis setup.... But if you want to keep the fans, and attract more, better get some new tracks in the schedule someplace!!!! Heck, I wish they still ran Rockingham! that would be a chase track!!!!!!!!!!!

    Man, now that is one heck of a promotion plan!!!!! Seriously though, it's exactly what I did Sunday--watched the start (and Jimmy's little wreck), took a nap, woke up and watched Dodge win this year's fuel mileage contest!!!!!! A perfect day!!!!

    I dunno, that brand new 7/8 mile track in Iowa sure did have a great ARCA race!!!!!

    How about no cubic inch limits, and no tracks longer then a mile unless it's a road course??????
