My Last Bristol (Rant)
Gang,
I've been going to races at Bristol since before there was a DW (showing my age). I have had tickets to the spring race for near 20 years and the fall race for the past five. I'm done with it....... I hate the COT - - - might as well call it IROC racing now. I hate the new track layout - - - no more rubbing & racing. I hate the 160k "fans" that crowd their way into a track that should have never exceeded 80k. I hate a race that now only gets interesting in the last 20 laps. I hate drivers that need to be corp spokesmen over racers. I hate teams that find finishing in the top 35 in points more important than racing for the win. I hate the chase that has made the fall race a "hold your points position" parade. It ain't my Daddy's NASCAR anymore. See ya at the next NHRA race. Rant Mode Off......
