The Chase? What a joke. If you ask me, the whole deal has turned into something I am not even interested in anymore. The main attraction that NASCAR had over Indy car was the fact that they weren't running funny looking cars in circles for a couple of hours. Used to be relevant what sort of suspension, engines, bodies, etc. each manufacturer made. Not anymore. Now everybody's running Blowties of one sort or another.
Don't get me started on the first induction class of the NASCAR Hall of Fame. They only inducted 2 drivers. Bill France Jr. and Dale Earnhart are more important to NASCAR history than David Pearson and Cale Yarborough? Don't think so. I would have bounced the other France for one of the Allison brothers too.
