Dirt Tracks

So it's been a while since my last post and there is too much racing to catch up on all of it but i want to start by saying I love the nationwide competition right now.Also supper impressed with MWR they field three good cars every week.

Originally this though crossed me while watching Bristol but really firmed itself during my watching of Fontana (which i hated the racing of). Nascar should ad a dirt track. The super speedways that took over in the 70's are okay but there are so many of them, few tracks lack the individual character. Yes, there is Darlington, Indy, Bristol, The Glen, and Pocano but then races at Fontana, Iowa, Phoenix, Vega, Texas, and Atlanta dont get me excited about the track. Not saying that those tracks aren't good but the reason we all love Bristol is because it's different thats why they are redoing the track to the old style. So my idea is add a dirt track! The racing would be something I haven't seen in my life time, the last Nascar race on a dirt track was in the 70's. At the time the King said he hoped they would keep one on the schedule so that nascar wont forget its roots.

Most race fans have watched a dirt track race at some point. The racing is great and takes great skill. So cars don't go racing around the track at 180mph but watching the turns is great. A joke about nascar is its nothing but left turns, but if its on dirt that is the most exciting thing! One reason dirt tracks were taken out was besides the lack of speed, was attendance. You can cram more people into a super speedway but Nascar attendance and ratings are dropping not saying this should be a gimmick, but i know many race fans that don''t watch alot of races. This should at least for one Sunday boost ratings!

As for some logistical issues some but not all drivers have raced on dirt, the current car might need to be adjusted for dirt, goodyear would need a new tire, NASCAR would have to find or build a track, and conduct a lot of testing.
