National Stock Car....not a damn thing stock about it....anymore. We as spectators want to see REAL stock cars slightly modified going around a track like we saw in previous years! Now what we see is a totally ground up built race car with not eve a single original bolt. The old saying used to be "Win Races on Sunday and Sell Cars on Monday" simply because buyers of those cars could see what they were buying right on the track. NASCAR now has so many damn rules on safety, phoniness, fakeness and expense that only millionaires can only afford to race. Screw all the safety crap, spectators don't watch races just to get dizzy seeing cars go in circle...they watch to see the wrecks and crackups knowing someone could get killed. Lets face it NASCAR its a risky sport and goes with the territory. Nascar is no longer a Nascar, ask Richard Petty and how he and those before him drove real Nascars where danger and excitement truly was. They bought cars off the showroom floor and slightly modified them for the track. It was when the average joe could afford to get on the track and see what his racer would do. NASCAR is now a phoney fake rich mans sport who have the nerve to pass off miilion dollar ground up built race car as a stock car. No wonder American companies can no longer sell cars, people see the phoniness on Sunday so on Monday they say screw it and go out and buy a Toyota.
