I think I'm all NASCAR'ed out

Yesterday was the limit for me.
My teams are getting worse, not better.
Sponsorship issues.
The COT/POS sucks. That was a terrible "race" Sunday.
NASCAR has their head in the sand.
DODGE is brain dead, the body lives only by life support and someone has their hand on the plug.
Not much positive out there on the horizon... (deep sigh)

The sport's fan base was built on 500 mile races, it is what it is. Why does ANYONE need to run 24 hours? Because that's what they do in the Sportscar and LeMans series. If people want sprint racing they should watch dirt. Moderate distance is IRL and F1. Nascar is borderline endurance racing. I'm tired of people complaining that Nascar should change what it's always been because they are bored with it. If you're bored stop wasting your time. Let the people (like me) who enjoy what Nascar is and always has been enjoy it and you can watch something you like better.

You are right cow. It would have been a different story if we had the TTCOT.
I compared it to not eating for two day and your standing in line at McDonalds. And when you get to the counter to pay. All you have is a Hundred dollar bill. And they cant make change till next week.

I hope I'm not setting myself up for a disappointment.

I don't know why the TT chassis is better. But it is the only positive thing I have to hold on to after the season we just sat through.

I would also like to know why it is better. But I doubt it is something that any one is willing to tell at this time.

Here is a good read...

An excellent commentary on one of the main reasons I feel like I do.

Some of you guys are looking at it all wrong. You know 15 to 20 years ago we couldn't watch a live race every week like we do now especially here in the west. If you wanted to keep track of what was going on you had to get a hold of friends or family members in the east to find out what was going on. Some of the problems is that the sport got popular so fast that some of the fans we have in NASCAR really aren't in love with the sport or the history. Yes I believe that the broadcasters could do a better job not going to commercial every 10 minutes. As far as NASCAR the reason the seasons have gotten so long is that the fans wanted it that way, now its starting to get a little old for the fans they start complaining.

Just my piece of mind thats all.
