    I heard someone on the radio the other day talking about some really radical rule changes for this year. They said it was going to really shake things up but he didn't say what they were.

    I'm interested in finding out what they are, it could actually get me to watch. Maybe.

    I heard they were going to do away with the restrictor plates in future races at Daytona and Talledega.

    What NASCAR needs is more old time drivers like Dale Earnhardt, Darrell Waltrip and Tony Stewart. Now all the drivers are just alike: bland corporate shills.

    I knew that, it sounded as if there were something else. I'm too lazy and disinterested to look it up

    They were saying during Daytona that changes to the aero package would create pack racing at other tracks as well. Saw it a little at Atlanta yesterday, including a couple of times where they went 4 wide. But by the end, the top 2 had separated themselves from 3rd by about 3 seconds.
