      Nascar lost it's credibility years ago when they decided to focus all there efforts on five drivers and one particular make of car. Basically rigged racing is and was it's downfall. I'm 53 and was a dedicated fan for over 25 years until I saw just how corrupt Nascar really had become. I miss these days to, it sucks when Sunday morning rolls around and you know there's no reason to even turn on the tv anymore. 🙂✌️

      @@ThiccRicc There was definitely an outcry for a change back then, there was even a huge industry-wide push to "break up the packs" using a variety of strategies including tiny fuel cells to make them pit more often. Thinking back to it I'm not sure why they wanted to adjust what was basically the perfect plate package. The cars looked good, sounded good, raced good, and they couldn't build grandstands fast enough to keep up with it. Our sports fan base has never been satisfied, always something to complain about lol. I was living the dream during this time and kinda wish I appreciated it more, can't believe it's been two decades since this.

      Matt Kenseth was real consistent most of 2003 and had a big point lead with only one win. Sure, he faltered toward the end but he still won the Cup at Rockingham. NASCAR decided to let the top 10 fight it out. That I could deal with. Today? Maybe not. No need to reset points every 4 races, let them race with the normal 43 point scenario or however many points they award and let it be decided by who has the most points.
