I just dont think they, (road courses), are as fun to watch as cars going 190mph inches apart ...
I also agree on the save by jimmy, perfect 360! ... but wasn't he "punted"?
p.s.
I'm in a pool and i have to make a trade ... who would you trade for jeff burton? ... jamie mcmurray / elliot s. / or vickers?  |
I'd go Vickers right now, McMurray and Sadler both seem to be going the wrong way.
I don't know about the road courses. I like them but the courses have already been Nascarized to a point where they aren't the way they used to be. Sears Point was reconfigured and shortened by half a mile about 6 or 7 years ago, and they dont use the entire circuit at Watkins Glen that the true road racing leagues use when they go there. I don't see a lot of benefit to them. I guess it costs less than plate racing, but they were also saying during the broadcast that Cal Wells spent an extra $400,000 on his road course program this year. That is a ton of money for a small team.
