Nope, no way, uh-uh, never.
Now, maybe give up one of the New Hampshire races, or California, that I could see for a dirt race#4 2014 Sprint Cup Champion, 2007 Daytona 500,2003 Brickyard 400,2x Coke 600,2014 Southern 500 Champ: 962 starts,90 wins, 345 T5s, 544 T10s, 44 poles, 2x NNS champ

Darlington has to stay, NASCAR has ditch enough history recently. Its time they remembered where it came from.
To be honest i doubt NASCAR would have a dirt race these days. I do wish there were a couple more short tracks on the schedule. You feel like your watching them go round the same track week in week out sometimes. Crappy cookie cutters.

look at Bristol, Martinsville, North Wilkesboro (bring it back), Phoenix and Dover all completely different from one another and the racing is top notch. Bristol always sells out, Cali on the other hand struggles to get anywhere near capacity with half the amount of seating.

maybe add a dirt race to the truck series schedule, and make it a 26 race season for the trucks?

Bristol - top place - love it
Marstinsville - can't see the point.
North Wilks - only remember it from the game - great racing
Dover - love to death - so fast
Phoenix - not keen again
And yes all different - I only think of Bristol and Martin as short though.
And I also agree the California race wasn't great for racing - great for good cars, but agrree it could have been closer. Shows the yawning gap between the top and bottom teams mind.
