No question about it. The car owners and crew chiefs probably aren't to happy cause they tear up a lot of equipment, but many drivers have gone on record as to what a challange it is, and how much fun they have out there.
If I were driving, I'd much rather deal with a track like this, that challanges me for 400 laps, than one like California, or Chicago, were it's 5 lanes across and you just seem to drive around by yourself all day. I can just imagine how hard they have to concentrate driving 500 miles at Darlington.
It'd be a real shame if they eliminated this track from the schedule. Of course I thought that when they closed North Wilksboro too. In my opinion, these are the type tracks they should be building, not the same old cookie-cutter 1 1/2 milers.
