“It does not get anymore exciting than sprint cars on dirt. (sprint CARS that is, not Sprint Cup) “


As a former dirt track driver I can attest to the fun of sliding a car through the corner and spending more time on handling than just pure horsepower however, I detest any series where the cars do not have self starters. Every spin results in a long boring caution.

Regarding Sprint cars, when they run, they are exciting. When they stall they suck.

Bingo.

Give me a good 25 or 30-lap feature with lots of passing and dicing for position for the whole race.

None of this hanging back to see what happens.

No pit stops = no pit strategy.

Balls out for the entire race.

...and a little dirt on your french fries is good.
