Nascar

Absolutely agree, more Saturday nights but not all Saturday nights. I should have been more clear on that. There are enough Saturday night races it would be interesting to see if there is a dip in local track attendance. It's been going on enough years there should be some data somewhere that could show a correlation or not.

In post 59 on the previous page, all but one of the spectacular wrecks are night race pictures if I remember correctly. NASCAR is about the show, we all know stage racing is only to bring the pack back together instead of having everybody go two laps down to leader and four cars on the lead lap to finish the race. I remember those days.

I could not believe how it took them so long to design those "anti-flying" flaps that have pretty much stopped the air from putting some of those cars lifting off like Harrier jets as they used to do in certain types of wrecks. Anyone interested in wreck survivals needs to look up some of the wild and dangerous twirling rides that Rusty Wallace took in the 1990s. Even D.E. survived some very scary crashes that I have often thought made him feel not just an intimidator but indestructible. I think the day he left us was just like a pin popping a balloon to me as far as any passion left for NASCAR. I still TRY to watch but it is not really there for me anymore.
