Put the Labor Day weekend race back in Darlington where it belongs. That’ll make a start, at least.

NASCAR’s gotten kind of boring. The new breed of drivers all seem to be either boring nice-guy clones like Jimmie Johnson, or whiny brats.

Not to mention cars that all look alike and don’t resemble the real cars they’re supposed to be. That was the whole point of “stock” cars.

Jeff Gordon can't find a nice place to stay around there.

Cookie cutter tracks suck too. We already have two races at Michigan. They could have made California a true oval or something at the very least.

Not only boring, most races cover all the caution (time to get a beer / take a leak) laps than race laps these days with at least 3 commercial breaks with only 20 left.

Couple that with the infomercial pop-ups during live coverage of race laps, and yes, it sucks to be a NASCAR fan, not to mention most Cup tickets averaging $100 for the front stretch.

Only if you find driving cars around a circle, over and over, at basically the same speed boring.
