I wish they had more truck races

They need to add about 2 or 3 more truck races on the schedule. Most of the time they are far more exciting than the Cup/Nationwide races so why not? I guess Nascar doesn't want people to see that the truck races are(unlike the Cup races) worth watching!

Re: I wish they had more truck races

I wish they'd add more too. I love the trucks. Can do without watching cup, but not the trucks.

Re: I wish they had more truck races

I disagree. If they add more races it'll become more popular, start paying more money and result in the drivers getting more press time. Then they'd end up having another class of Cup Raider and before you know it, CTS would be a shadow of what it is today, just another orchestrated, "racertainment" NA__AR production.

I say keep it very low profile and extremely low key and hope no one in Daytona Beach notices the Series. It's great racing right now and if it ain't broke, why try and fix it?

I never looked at it that way Bob. Guess you have a point.

Look at the quality of racing in Cup before it got popular, as opposed to today. Personally, I think it's pretty evident; popularity can be your worse enemy.

The selfish, short-sighted part of me would also love to see more CTS racing. However, the realistic side of me has seen what increased mass coverage (which is what more races would entail) could do to a great series. So I vote to keep it just as it is, maybe even a level or two lower.

Re: I wish they had more truck races

Thats true, sure don't want it to turn out the way cup has. They could instead of taking like a month off at a time, just take 1 weekend a month off.
