One possibility would be for Cup drivers to be limited to five Xfinity races only regardless of their experience level, which could be a significant cut for some drivers.
Yes please.

Oh, and the restrictor plate + front bumper aero mod package did its job of producing a much relatively better race than those previous.

Think the Cup guys have just outdone Allgaier's scrub gang. The end of this race is pure ARCA. What was Johnson thinking trying to go for the lead with a smoking engine did he really think that would end well?

Re: The National Association for Stock Car Auto Racing threa
Kasey Kahne finally won a race!
...although race control decided to be goits again, by waiting until Kahne crossed the overtime line to throw the race-ending caution despite a wreck being triggered far enough back to warrant doing so.

Xfinity race control annoyingly did the same thing @ Daytona. Seriously, NASCAR, just toss the bathplug rule if you're not even going to utilize it properly.

FTFY.
Oh well, NASCAR gifted him that one. Massive wreck on the backstretch, wait util one sec AFTER they cross the overtime line to throw the flag. Lame. I know Indy has no lights but come on! Oh well, they show Kenseth his new seat is a decent ride anyway. Also, holy shite, did anyone know there was a race on? Attendance was what? 40k? Maybe? At a track that holds 300k!

Can't say I blame them honestly. Probably got sick of the amount of times they were wrecking.

No. He was still in the restarting zone and the other drivers shouldn't accelerate before the leader does or the green flag waves. Kahne had the right to wait and McDowell et al. should respect that right.
Re: The National Association for Stock Car Auto Racing threa
In other news Penske is expanding to three cars as Blaney moves over next year. Menard has bought the Wood Bros. seat (which mean the prettiest car on tour will now run the ghastly Menards colors) opening the RCR seat for Ty Dillion, opening the 13 for Kahne once Kenseth moves to the 5. Follow all that? lol

Wallio wrote:The rule states you can go to the second line, yes. But on a restart at the end of the race, at a track as hard to pass at as Indy, anyone with a lick of common sense, so not KK, knows people are going to go. There was about 26 cars left at that point and all of them BUT the leader decided to go. Good luck penalizing the whole field.
Nowhere did I say anyone should be penalised. I just feel it's unfair to blame Kahne for that pile-up when he did nothing wrong. Perhaps his team were thinking such a crash could happen and waited until the last moment to restart on purpose? After all, Kahne would have been (and was) the main benefitor of that as long as he wasn't involved.

I dunno, to me he HAD to know everyone would start pushing right at the first line, thus he caused the crash. Just like on a Saturday night dirt track. Honestly he's lucky it did work out for him, he got tagged hard enough I'm surprised he didn't go around.
