Bristol, dudes.

Hooray for NASCAR.

How I long for the old days of Bristol. Before the new car. Before they repaved the track. Before they totally screwed this sport to the point of no return.

Hooray? Nah. NASCAR has found a way to even make Bristol boring. I think we're watching preseason football tonight. That should tell you how far NASCAR has fallen.

I kinda disagree...last night's Nationwide race with Busch and Keslowski (sp?) going side by side, lap after lap (until Kes tried to punt B, and B did punt Kes) was quite exciting, and not something you would have seen before repaving.

Don't get me wrong, 43 cars fighting for one line on a 1/2 mile track is exciting, just different exciting. Side by side on a short track for many laps is quite cool in my mind.

Nationwide runs a different car.

I don't care what anyone says...it is not the same Bristol as before. No bumping, banging, rubbing, etc. Just long green flag runs, hours of boredom that then most probably leads to a G/W/C finish.

Nope...not for me. Not anymore. I've tried and tried, and hoped and hoped...but I think NASCAR is past the point of no return. At least for me it is.

I just want to see a cycle of green flag pitstops at Bristol once in my lifetime.

I'm putting a Reg Dunlap bounty of $50 for anyone that takes out Kyle Busch.

Ask and you shall recieve. It happened tonight. Bristol is MUCH better since they made more than one line on the track. It used to be single file until the last 20 laps. Now there's actual racing going for the entire race.

BTW Keselowski did not try to wreck Kyle in Nationwide. Kyle was nowhere near clear of Brad before he decided to move up.

That's without a doubt true...I think Kyle had him clear but got loose and had to lift and Kes had no place to go except into Busch's bumper...but with those two, both aggressive, sometimes stupidly so, you knew what was coming in the next corner...and in the media.

It did make for some good, fun drama...

Menard would've been a hero if he wrecked Busch during those last few laps, why not when you're not in the chase and laps down?
