This is what sells tickets.At least they were racing instead of riding.Tony is old school and NASCAR is boring without drivers with passion to win not points race .As far as blocking that is the way they race sometimes like it or not.I usually only watch the last 10/15 laps the rest isnt even racing it is getting ready for the A-main.They need hype as they have been losing fans and unfortunately Denny got injured.The money is great for those who make it to the big time .WWF and Monster Jam are great examples of hype

He's the Sheriff. It's a role he seems to embrace so let hi
More weight, more regulation, more similarity in the 
cars.... that will ensure plenty of thrills for years 
to come.  Only the most average talent behind the 
wheel will be needed with such awesome equipment on 
the track!

For those with short memories:

Since there’s no NASCAR rule against blocking (thank goodness), Logano’s move was perfectly legal. If Stewart would like to compete in a series where blocking is outside the guidelines, he can always move to IndyCar or Formula One. Then there’s the 800-pound gorilla in the room, which was Stewart’s ill-conceived block at Talladega last October that wound up wadding up 25 cars on the final lap.

Conversely, Stewart was within his rights to confront Logano on pit road after Sunday's race. While their scuffle won’t be confused with the 1979 Daytona 500 fight between Cale Yarborough and the Allison boys any time soon, there’s nothing wrong with raw emotion boiling over in professional sports.

Everyone keeps on bringing up the blocking at Talladega last year but what they forget is that after that race Tony admitted that he made a stupid move and took full responsibility for tearing up the field trying to win the race. He's admitted that he hates restricter plate racing because of the fact that you have to block in order to win.

Might not be a rule but they always harp about safety, Hence take the mirrors out of the RACECARS, They do not need them.

Spotters can only tell them high or low when there is a wreck & only where the wreck is on the track.
