Default What kind of crap is this? - 09-20-2003 , 12:10 PM






From Jayski.com:

........One of the main rule changes was to allow the first car not on the
lead lap to regain a lap. Previously, the leader of the race would sometimes
slow to allow one or two cars back on the lead lap. Under the new procedure,
the first car not on the lead lap would automatically regain a lap,
regardless of where the car was in relation to the leader........

That's just bullshit, allowing one car to automatically get back on the lead
lap reguardless if theyre in front of the leader or not. I guess NA$CAR
just can't stop giving free handouts.

I thought that for a moment but then I thought that it would make the lap
down cars actually keep fighting amongst themselves to make sure that
when a caution comes out that they will be the best lap down car and will
get a lap back. That could make the raceing more interesting.

The question I have is this: Will the car to get a lapback be the "first
car a lap down" or will it be the "the car that is at least a lap down
that is closest to the leader". For example. A car that is 3 laps down
is between the leader and a 1 lap down car when the caution. Who gets
the lap back? I think it should be the 3 lap down car since that car
would have had the best shot of getting a lap back under the old rules.

Another question: Will this new rule go out the window when a caution
comes out due to rain when a race is past the half way point? In the
past we would see the leaders go all out to race to the caution knowing
that it was for the race win.

I guess this new rule is as they said "a work in progress".

I guess they are a bunch of liars on the Happy Hour broadcast also... since
they just reported the one car per caution getting a lap back.

Agree completely. A total crock of shit.

Just because he licks Ford's ass clean each and every day doesn't mean that
the stuff he posts are lies. It's just rumors, not necessarily the truth.
Some of the stuff that gets denied at first ends up being true later on.

I find it comical that you always post NASCAR sucks, but yet you always hang
around here and post more messages.......

I find that very funny........

In this case the people who make up the NASCAR.COM website are not very
accurate. They wrote that the field is frozen when the caution flag comes
out. What they should have put was that the order is frozen, but one car
gets a gift pass of the leader to get back on the lead lap. NASCAR just
plain sucks these days anyhow. That is just about the worst rule I ever
heard of. I guess it means on a road course where a lap is like two
minutes
long somebody is going to get what amounts to an entire free lap. What a
joke of a sport. Since the cars have so much artificial parity why not
just declare everybody the co-winner of everything? I protest this idea
of
giving one car a free lap each time a caution is thrown. At Talladega
that
could be 5 full miles! NASCAR needs to rethink that immediately.
