How anti-climactic was the Friday Night Truck finish and now the Busch Race? What a stupid rule Nascar came up with to decide a finish of a race. Didn't the IRL have the same stupid rule and got rid of it? With all the technology we have in the 21st century, the out come of a race is decided by how fast some over-weight official could push a button? Are you serious? :confused:
Now, the race is decided by when the yellow flag comes out, meaning that you are putting an official with a button in charge of the outcome of the race. So, what if this guy hesitates a little, and 1 race he waits 1/2 a second to the push the button and another race he waits 1 1/2 seconds? That could well change the outcome of the race like we witnessed the last 2-days. This stupid rule also allows the guy with the button to play favoritism or a bribe....The best bet coming out of Daytona is that the 500 will end under the same circumstances. :shakehead
Nascar is going backwards with these rules. They have all the opportunity in the world to make racing a big league sport and they come up with this Mickey Mouse deal. :rolleyes:
