They ruined that sport. By the mid 90's it was over. The beginning of the end was restricter plates.

Never watched it. Turnd down a day at Daytona 500 for a day by myself at the beach when I was 13. So even as a kid it had no draw for me. How could it and yet another left turn and 20+ cars all with the same equipment.

When Big Bill France died, and idiot Brian France took over is biggest reason it went bad. There's a bunch of others, like radial tires. But Big Bill dying is number one.

NASCAR today is different, and much better, than it was 20 years ago.

For me it's boring without him racing.

C. Bell just finished 4th and Bowman finished around 7th in a winged sprint race on dirt.

Lots of talent in NASCAR if they could get their ducks in a row.

That's all I ever hear^^^, but how was Earnhardt Nascar? Most guys I know use it as an excuse to quit watching. Almost like they were afraid it would hurt their man card points if they didn't have a reason to stop watching.


Life sure is tough when you don't learn from the mistakes of others.

Nascar started to lose me even before Earnhardt died.
But then, I'm old enough to remember when he was the new kid

I spent WAY too much time at dirt tracks growing up.

Funny thing, Nascar, on a way, got it's start in MD.
We had an insane amount of dirt tracks here back in the 40s and 50s.
Bill France raced here as a kid, growing up.
Even on the old, wooden " board tracks".

He moved to Florida, and the rest is, as they say, history.

Reds Kagle was a fixture at local tracks until he passed.
He had a sorta bad wreck 60 years ago.
Some of you old timers may recall him.

Elmo Langely was around a lot too.
