I wish people would stop mentioning Nascar.
It's a bloody stupid sport; 40 cars going round in circles for a few hours. You'd expect them all to be able to master turning left pretty quickly, but they still manage to get it wrong.

Barbaric- who are stupid are some of the Yank fans who get pissed up and throw cans around when their beloved overrated hero does not win. A red car for those wondering.

Well I don't like the the American way of using the safety car: blink twice and there's another safety car (again...), but I think it's a good idea to make sure that the order behind the SC is the current racing order. No more slow cars on "2nd place" holding up all the fast cars. Finally.

Should improve the racing no end with all the slow backmarkers being removed and should allow more great battles to occur at the front of the race next season. I must admit this is one good idea to have come out of Nascar over the last few years, but there aren't many others are there?
