Everytime I turn around, NASCAR is doing something dumb. It is the only series in the world that sucumbs to profit 100%. What other racing series:
1.makes rules to ensure total equality among manufacturers
2.Changes rules every week to attempt to ensure equality
3. Has a "Lucky Dog" rule that lets people back on the lead lap
4. Mandates what shocks and springs to run at certain tracks
5. Has a "no Shifting" rule at Pocono
6. Has a playoff style format at the end of the season, where points are re-distributed in increments to try to make racing more exciting.
7. Has a post race debacle/fight every other week involving jockey sized drivers.
8.Boasts about technology from the racecars go into your streetcar? In bikes the trickle down effect is almost immediate. There is really nothing from NASCAR that made it into any car from the 70's on.
9. The list continues........
