I first started watching NASCAR....the Daytona 2001 race was my very first and Jr captured my heart that day....I used to live for the Sat nite races. We usually got pizza those nites and I made popcorn. They were exciting back then. Then NASCAR decided to mess around with something that wasn't broken and now it's all cookie cutter. hard to pass, boring races. Just watch the last few laps on most races and you haven't really missed anything. I always wonder about NASCAR. It's a sport same as football, baseball and basketball so WHY do they always go changing and tinkering with things and rules? Ever remember the other sports doing that?
