Agreed!!! NASCAR today ain't nothing more than glitz and glamour in my opinion...everyone runs the same exact thing. Guess I used to like NASCAR more back when I was a kid, before Corn Flakes, Tide, M&M's etc were sponsering cars...after the sponsers got involved or after it become hugely popular across the country it became boring to me, or maybe I just found better things to do with my time, not sure which.

Now days the only races I watch are the Daytona 500 (except this year I didn't)...and sometimes it's nice to watch the Bristol race just because of how much bumpin' goes on and Watkin's Glen...but I hardly ever watch those races either.
