That rubbish("reality"shows) seems to be what a large segment of the populace wants. Give them fast cars,"drama" and the occasional crash and they're happy. Armpit man hit upon an idea that went over with the casual viewer who has little understanding of racing. The ordinary viewer does not know or care why the flagman start was scrapped in the 50's , they just see it as "cool",so we can't expect them to care about sandbagging. Newton Minnow said it best in the 60's "TV is a vast wasteland".
