Qualifying format
I could get to like this thing if NASCAR would let the teams cool their engines on pit road.

Re: Qualifying format
I have to disagree. Guess i'm just a traditionalist. I don't like this new qualifying proceedure. It's just another practice session, makes little sense to me and is boring, watching it on television. I like the old single car qual attempts. I could tell who was fast where, who was losing, who was gainining and get a idea of who was going to run well in the race. This new proceedure has caused me to give up on watching qualifying. I now watch only the final practice session and the race, nothing else. This has lessened my enjoyment of the overall race weekend.

Re: Qualifying format
I don't like it at all. I watch only to see where everybody shakes out. Qualifying wasn't broken and didn't need "fixing".

As long as I'm in complaining mode I'd like to register a complaint about missing smiley emoticons too. Where the heck did they go and why were they removed?

Re: Qualifying format
I'm a traditionalist myself. I still groan at green-white-checkered finishes. Single-car qualifying is a tad dry, even for me.

Well Cup practice starts today at Daytona. You know a series has gone stale when the track record is 10 years old, let alone 29 years old like it is at Daytona. The term Speedway is a bit of a farce here.
This is my opinion and to the best of my knowledge, that is, if I'm not joking

Yes I fear so too, you just need to look at the new cost for tourists to get into Venice and when everyone sees the amount of money being made others will soon follow, and prices will go up. As...
