i like 660 and 1320
a 1000 seemed like a "pretty" number they picked out of nowhere that means nothing to nobody
had they made it 990 - or 3/16th or 330yds it at least would have some merit in relation to a mile
the only problem with going back to 1320 is not being close to the old records if they are all slowed down now.
you either have to freeze the records from the past and start new or risk them never being broken
people love to see attempts at records (viewership of olympics proves this)
im all in favor of safety ... with creativity being still allowed. nascar and its cookie cutters is a sleeperfest of rules
