| Let's fix the schedule So in the moving a race to Canada thread we kinda talked about other ways to change the schedule. So lets fix the schedule. Drop- the August Pocono Add- Montreal Drop - the September California Add- Mexico City Drop -the Sept New Hampshire Add - Kentucky Drop - The Sept August Michigan Add- Iowa Drop - The November Phoenix Add - another Race at the Brickyard Drop - The November Texas Add - another Darlington Drop - The October Atlanta Add - Milwaukee Drop - The October Martinsville Add- Nashville I used no scientific way to pick which race fills the ones that were dropped but those are just some ideas how about some other ones

| Re: Let's fix the schedule I would not drop Texas. I'm sorry but you can't drop a track that fills 200,000 twice a year. Plus it is my home track. Also I would not race at the brick yard twice a year....yuck... Also I would not go to Milwaukee. We need less flat tracks. Instead I would go to Homestead again. I am down with the two extra road courses. Road racing is the most competitive racing Nascar has. I don't know why fans don't like it more. |

| Re: Let's fix the schedule The problem with dropping the 2nd race at some tracks - is soon as you do you might as well drop the other race as well. The tracks that are outside of the traditional area of NASCAR don't have a lot of races outside of the NASCAR weekends. A lot of the short/intermediate tracks in the Southeast do however have other weekends of racing. Not sure tracks like Texas and some others could make it on one weekend a year. I don't care for the track, even tho it's my closest track I prefer to drive somewhere else to watch a race. Just saying if you cut some tracks down to one race I think they would go bye bye. |

drop california add mexico love it drop new hampshire add kentucky cant do that because ther are to many cookie cutter mile and a half tracks in the chase as it is. love kentucky though and would love to see a cup race there. drop pheonix for brickyard no way pheonix puts on great races. drop texas for darlington unfortionally they cut darlington for texas(ya lets cut a track with character for a cookie cutter mile and a half track great choice nascar NOT) drop atlanta for milwaukee rather drop lowes for milwaukee gotta keep martinsville in the chase its the only short track how about cutting martinsville for bristol. the regular season race lineup doesnt bother me at all but the races in the chase do we need a road course for sure and less mile and a half tracks.the champion should be able to drive on all the different track configurations.other wise whats the point in a championship chase.daytona 400 should be the last race of the year not homestead.start and end the season with the great american race.could you imagine more excitment for the last race anything could happen.the drivers wouldnt like it but the ratings would go through the roof. |

| Re: Let's fix the schedule Actually they dropped Darlington in favor of California. I can't remember if they dropped a race for another Texas date. I don't think so. I think they just added it. I know they dropped Rockingham, but I believe that was in favor for another Pheonix date. I could be wrong. |

I definitely support the idea of Kentucky a race... although I would recommend that KY gets a race that California losses sinjce california can't sellout a race.

(2) Move the Labour Day race back to where it belongs, Darlington (3) Move the Sept Louden race to Kentucky. Make the CTS as a Saturday race (4) 2nd Michigan to Iowa? If Michigan doesn't sell out next season, it's worth consideration (5) Phoenix to the Brickyard? One: We DO NOT need another Brickyard and , two; Have you ever been in Indiana in November? (6) Leave it in Texas, or make it another open date (7) Leave it in Atlanta. We don't need a flat mile track. Or move this one to Nashville ( Someone mentioned "1000 lawyers." I'd say it was closer to 10,000. <g>

Montreal Keep it. As for Mexico and security there is some interesting race out there: Indy Road Course (no F1 anymore), Road Atlanta, Road America, Portland 4 road race is ok, but I would have one in the chase. Quote:

It needs to be move to another short tracks. There is plenty, just need one promoter to upgrade his local track to host 100K fans |

| Re: Let's fix the schedule I think everyone is jumping the gun on wanting more road races. History has proved that they generally aren't as exciting as the recent ones at Montreal or The Glen. But, on the assumption that NASCAR will put a road course in, here a solution which will kill two birds with one stone: Take the boring California first race and move it to the road course at Portland, OR. We get rid of a California race (which most think are as exciting as watching paint dry) and put its replacement on a road course, IN THE NORTHWEST, where NASCAR wants a presence, at PORTLAND which is close to being a major market. How's that fit everyone? |
