Could go completely the other way and suck balls tho, as NASCAR proves every weekend. Same gearing, same basic chassis, shock and spring rules, aero template rules, engine rules, spec tire, spec fuel, 1960s technology and still no real excitement?

Nascar can get fixed in two moves. Ready? More road courses, homogolaton rules. Just like the old days. Run race prepped street cars.

Done

I would be all over that. Get rid of alot of those almost identical 1.5 mile tri ovals, run Road America, Road Atlanta, Maybe Miller, Throw in a Mexican and Canadian round...

I seriously doubt that they could run street based cars as only the Charger/ Challenger, Mustang, Camaro have the beans. Toyota would be out in left field. All sports cars when they want sedans. Cadillac would have an entry with the CTSV tho..

In the end Trip is right. No way NASCAR will abandon those big ovals because of the markets and money they rake in and no one wants a 50 race schedule....

I watch about about 6-8 NASCAR races a year, Watkins Glen and Infineon, Richmond, Martinsville, and Bristol, Talledega and Daytona. With the all star race in Charlotte as a fave due to the format.
