I made the suggestion they need to scrap the 250-300+ miles races for three shorter "sprint" races. I argued the most exciting part of the race is the first few laps and the finish. Also fuel mileage calculations really make the races boring. Instead of racing, everyone is dancing around the gas pumps trying to gain an advantage.
I said figure out the max laps the cars will go on one set of tires and one tank of gas, make the race 3-4 laps shorter, do that 3 times back to back and average the points for the overall that weekend.
They didn't hate the idea, but looking back they knew it was over so it didn't matter.

Reminds me of the old mechanics, painters, especially the pinstripe guys etc. who probably never did anything without a cigarette hanging from their mouth.
It wasn't long ago when hockey players would smoke and drink coffee (for caffeine) during the intermissions.
For DT, the saying: "I drive too fast to worry about cholesterol" truly applies...
And I personally think that's probably the best name EVER in ANY sports.

The lack of tailights and windscreen wipers has a bit to do with it
The other race series you metion don't run 3-4 wide in a pack of 40 cars at 190mph on those ovals either.
Do they run the Indy 500 in the rain? Nope, and those guys run in the rain all the time on road courses.
