Wow,

I couldn't agree with you guys more...especially you Alan! The idea of a networking deal that would only focus on the classes within this website now makes me wish I'd hit it big in the lottery for that instead of fixing America's auto maker woes...I'd rather watch you guys (and get my own car back on the track), than any of that nitro/alcoholic crap!!! I wonder if we could partner with Ted Turner on something like that?

This just makes me hope even more so that the ideal spoken of two months ago about starting a "Class Racers Association" type of sportsman only sanctioning body will come to fruition, in the forseeable future???

Just wondering here.... Since I don't watch Nascar often to know, do they offer this garbage,( newly weds game, exciting bike riders, etc.) on their programs? I had to walk away.

I think Larry Morgan said best a couple of years ago… "You can't fix stupid"...

ya know,i thoght it was just me.
watching that crap sunday was unbearable
absolutly the worst!
it's been tanking for a couple of years but this was baaaaad.

and the "points race" hype ain't even started yet

i'd rather watch "pinks"
well, not really....
"all out" ain't bad....
gotta give 'em credit, they've done more for drag racing than nhra and espn has lately....

one other thing, a buddy and i USED to go to the mile-hi nat's on thurday because none of the pro-hype crap was there, just sportsman.
he'd go for the comp stuff, i went for the s/ss stuff and the alky qualifying was good to watch.
they did away with thursday and we quit going.....

The part that really sucks is ESPN can show hours of NASCAR qualifying, an hour or so of NHRA Pro qualifying and even cover dirt track racing but cannot dedicate one hour to the true SPORTSMAN (S, SS, Comp, S. Comp, S. Gas). Sorry but in a race that last three hours I really don't care who starts first and turns left. IMO
