TALLADEGA, Ala. -- Among the topics Carl Edwards addressed with the media were if he thinks plate racing is "insane," the unpredictability of plate racing and Talladega not being an elimination race come next season.
The NASCAR Sprint Cup Series and Camping World Truck Series head to Talladega Superspeedway this weekend while the XFINITY Series is off. Please check below for the complete schedule of events.
Speaking before the media earlier today, Jimmie Johnson says the Driver's Council has discussed changes desired for the upcoming trip to the "World Center of Racing" next week.
Since they dropped the racing from 500 miles to 400 miles at Pocono, it has drastically improved. I can't explain why, but eliminating those extra 100 miles changed the way the drivers attack the track.
That is the key folks. If you don't like this kind of racing, don't watch it. Don't buy a ticket to see it. If you are really concerned with the safety risk to your favorite driver speak with your eyes, ears, and wallet. Because Brian France and NASCAR speak one language, you may think that it's English but the truth is, it's currency.
