The N In NASCAR Stands For Negativity
NASCAR is tired of hearing the negative message some of the stock car sport’s driving stars have been sending to fans lately.
Too many complaints about the new generation car, bumpy race tracks and numerous other things, and not enough positive reinforcement for fans.
Why shouldn’t they complain? The FANS are getting bored out of their minds. The FANS can see how stupid the whole idea of the “Car of Tomorrow” was (and still is). The FANS don’t need positive reinforcement from the drivers, they need good races that allow those drivers a chance to mix things up and prove they can driver better than the next guy.
The FANS don’t care if one car doesn’t break down. The FANS don’t care who gets lucky on pit roads. The FANS are demanding more from NASCAR. The drivers can’t give the FANS what they want until the powers that be at NASCAR get their heads out of their asses and do something about the “car of yesterday”.
NASCAR president Mike Helton held a “mandatory” meeting Friday morning for drivers and the team owners who already were on hand at Michigan International Speedway.
Things apparently reached a critical mass last week at Pocono, where it appeared nobody was happy about the rough track or the so-called “Car of Tomorrow” that is still being developed, or the intense heat that had many drivers near exhaustion after a 500-mile race most of them believe should be no longer than 400 miles.
The FANS aren’t happy and the drivers aren’t happy. Get a clue NASCAR.

Well, personally I don’t see much things changing. Although one thing I don’t like is that nascar doesn’t like it when drivers complain…
