Napcar is boring unless their is "the big wreck".The cars all look alike,when did Toyota build a v8 pushrod motor :icon_confused: What is with all the single file racing and spotters making"deals" to see who is your "friend" and help you win the race :rolleyes;  When the belts are tightened no body is my friend :D  BUT I like to watch Danica Patrick(especially in a bathing suit) :icon_redface:

They've dumbed the engines down so far with the restrictor plates that they're flat footing around the entire track. Yank the restrictor plates...and I'd be a bigger fan.

Yeah, the cars have no throttle response...cut the displacement and let them go at it so that it is a real race....and let Jr start winning again!  :D

Remember the quote from Earnhardt Sr.? Something like: take out the restrictor plate, let us run wide open, move the crowd back.
