1. "COT" - Love the safety & durability, I think Nascar did a great job of looking back a tragic accidents and applied some great features, but the COT is horrible. The wing & splitter needs to go!
Nascar can easily require a front nose distance from the ground that would give the same effect of a splitter. The wing needs to go and the spoiler needs to be reinstated, like the new Nationwide COT.
The Car needs to be redesigned to be able to turn better. It's horrible watching these cars "crabbing" down straightaways. The COT is a need, but Nascar needs to take input from every team and make a better product.

2. Tires - I have no problem with who Nascar mandates as the tires provider, however tires have been a huge issue for Nascar over the past few years. the race at Indy was unexcusable. Either mandate Goodyear to provide a better tire or open the door for other companies.

3. Sponsorship - The economy has been a big hurdle, but nobody steals more sponsorship away from teams than it's own sanctioning body and track owners. Nascar continues to take sponsors away from individual teams and allows companies to sponsor the whole series instead. Competing sponsors should be denied either. Nascar is driving companies away from the sport by allowing sponsors exculsive rights (Sprint, Sunnoco, etc.)

4. Qualifying format - Nascar needs to find a way to make sure every team had every opportunity availble to make the race. Tracks that have lights should be able to hold off cancelling qualifying, and tracks without lights should have the opportunity to run qualifying the next day (even if it's just the cars outside the Top 35) If qualifying is cancelled, the lineup should be a based on qualifying draw, not points.

5. Winner's purse - Nascar should make sure that the purse is rich enough to cover every team that qualifies' expenses for that week. Nascar has tons of sponsors and needs to increase money to the teams.

6. Support - Nascar needs to have a research center available to teams: wind tunnels, shaker rigs, etc. available to all teams instead of teams having to buy themselves. Sponsorship should be needed to improve performance and hire better personnel, not required to run the schedule. The purse for a Top 25 finish should be enough to carry a team week by week.

7. Rules - Nascar needs to take a long look at their rule book and put their rules into effect...period. They shouldn't have variables that can favor one driver over another. Nascar shouldn't make emotional decisions, instead make a decision based on the rule book that can be in black & white.

8. Tracks - Nascar needs to make racing entertaining. Add lights to Talladega & Martinsville. Add a road course to The Chase, and do away with all the "Cookie Cutter" tracks. Nascar's problem isn't tracks having 2 dates, it's the fact they have taken away tracks with personality and replaced them with "the same thing!" Nascar needs a better selection of tracks.

9. TV - Nascar needs to make all events (practice, qualifying & races) televised with Trackpass. It's crazy the scanner option isn't available during qualifying & practices. TV money should be applied to the purse and for support.

10. Roots - Nascar has spent years looking ahead, maybe it's time they stop and look back. Look at what grew the sport, what worked, and what made Nascar!
