Chuck what are your thoughts on the new car? I had to work today and caught the last 150 laps. Do they look like they race pretty good?

You saw more of the race than I did. I sqw the first 5 laps or so and the last 100 laps or so.

To me the cars looked like they handled so much different. The seemed to bounce all over the place.

I would like to see the next COT race and then try to decide how I like it.

What about you?

If it keeps the racin closer and there is a chance for a crappy driver to have a chance to win, well I think it's worth it.

And I am looking for the opposite effect.

I want the driver to have to driver the car harder. I would like to see the driver win the race, not the car.

And if there is a "crappy" driver out there, he needs to go. We ain't got no room for crappy drivers! :lol: :lol: :lol:

The crappy drivers cause the crashes. The crashes are what most folks tune in for. We need more crappy drivers :lol:

I see enough crappy drivers on the DFW freeways, thank you!

Personally, the COT looks like it may be interesting. This looked more like a shakedown race than anything. Y'know, let the teams work with the cars in a race situation. There looked like a *steep* learning curve during the race, at least for a few drivers.

Burton was WAY too nice to Bush. I counted 4-5 time on the last few last where other drivers (who shall remain nameless) would've dumped him when Bush kept coming down in to block.

They haven't shown much air time of Burton the last year or so, but from what I remember, he reminds me of Martin. To easy going. Needs to be a little more aggresive.

And I hate to see that...

While I admit that Waltrip isn't one of the better drivers out there, I still like him.

He is a very likeable guy. Who could dislike this guy?
