Say want you want about the IRL and ChampCar and F1. There's one good
thing that I think we can agree on - at least their seasons are not as long
as NASCAR.

Ugh, how long is the NASCAR season going to run? It just goes on and on
and on. It seems like there have been five races left the last eight weeks.
"After this race, only ten more races!" "After this race on twenty more
races!" Over and over.

So, after this Texas race there are only two more races left? I know
when I turn on the pre-race show next weekend the announcer will say "Only
five more races to go including this one!"

When you run so many races like NASCAR who really cares who wins the
championship? I sure don't. NASCAR at this time of year is boring.

TMS had plenty of shiny aluminum to back that up.

But CCWS won`t have room to talk with a December race next year in
Phoenix.....thanks to the Daytona Mafia ;-)

Doesn't it suck that there is completely nothing left to watch except NASCAR
until February? Even the DDP's (dumb-downed Daytona prototypes) in January
can't satisfy me. Actually, I heard Speed is going to show A1GP soon so
will be something to watch and a couple kids from California did well this
weekend in the kick off of the Autumn Formula Palmer-Audi series in England
so there is something to follow, too.

I don't think so. All the big teams will still win all the races and it will
still be incredibly boring.

If it is so boring why are you hangin on the every telecast?

NASCAR will be even better next year with the new car and the new American
drivers to reseat those who are finally retiring.

And that is so much unlike the various forms of open wheel racing where the
little teams win so often. Correct?

So get your foreigners to run some races in the Southern Hemisphere during
the traditional off months. Nobody is forcing you to watch Jeff Gordon and
the rest of
NASCAR in November.
