Latest on 2011 schedule

Sirius Speedway's Dave Moody reports that Kentucky will get a date from Atlanta and Kansas will get a date from Auto Club. Las Vegas couldn't secure its date so New Hampshire is safe.

Yes! One Auto Fail race! No offense to people from Cali, but the track is too boring.

 

[baboontester]

They need to take a race from Michigan or Pocono. Usually Pocono is very boring other than the last 2 races there. Not ATL or Vegas, I like those tracks

 

[Austin Lucas]

Thank the Lord Kansas got a 2nd race...

 

[Markfan]

I think Cali should be cut from the schedule altogether, none of the races I watched of it were really memorable and it's practically identical to Michigan.

Why not get rid of Michigan?

 

[Clutch]

Not ecstatic about Atlanta losing a date. Racing there isn't as bad as other places.

 

[Frigus5]

I like Michigan and Atlanta.

I like Auto Club and Pocono.

I don't like Vegas. But I do like Kentucky.

In my opinion, they should keep the Auto Club first date and put Kentucky in the place of it's second. And keep everything else the same. Vegas doesn't need a second date and neither does Kansas.

 

[Corey Carpenter]

I think Vegas deserves a second date..... the racing there is great...... and ever since they changed the banking it's been exciting to watch.....Plus I live here so........

Moody isnt a real reliable source so i wont believe what he says... however all this is pretty predictable. Doesnt help the schedule at all though. Go from one bland track in california to a bland one in kansas. yay. or how about a track with lots of history and good racing, to a vanilla kentucky. yay again. why IOWA cant get a cup date, i dont know:frown:

Nascar is a bunch of retards in my opinion. There just adding more boring races to the schedule other than Kentucky. What they need to do take Pocono and California and infineon of the schedule complectly and bring back Rockingham and North Wilkesboro and add Circurt Gilles Villnueve to the schedule.

 

[Enter Sandman]

Kansas is adding the whole casino/resort thing to the track if I remember right, so it makes sense that they'd get a second date there just for the monetary side of things. And we all know, Nascar is all about the $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$.

 

[John Poole III]

Well lets see here. They are having problems trying to get a sellout race so they think just cause a tracks building extra useless crap it will make more money. No Nascar fans come to a race so they can watch there favorite drivers complete and buy items not gamble and stay at a hotel if you want to do that then go to Las Vegas and on another note tose tracks are boringanyway (Las Vegas and Kansas).

 

[ValvolineMan]

Las Vegas is not boring.

 

[pennst24]

I think with most people, the true feeling behind hate towards Vegas or Kansas or Phoenix is that they are "good ol' boys" who don't wanna leave North Carolina. God forbid we leave the South....

 

[MillsLayne]

Nobody said anything about Phoenix. In fact, Phoenix has proven that it's one of the best tracks on the circuit currently. The racing there is exciting and unique and has had great finishes in the past. That's why it recently got a 2nd date. But I'll admit, Auto Club and Vegas are downright boring and those are the two tracks I'm closest to. Keep Infineon and maybe add a 3rd RC date to the schedule. I say yes. Yes.

 

[taz1458]

Why not get rid of Michigan?

Simple, they are not going to leave the area where the car makers are. I will be shocked if it ever happens.

Go to a Vegas race and let me know if its boring. I can tell you from experience, its one of the best of the year, hands down.

 

[ValvolineMan]

If only Rockingham could get a date...

I went to the Vegas race this year (Nationwide and Cup) and while it was a blast, the racing wasn't the most intense. There were some good battles, but not the kind you get at Texas or Darlington or Bristol. I think I loved it because I was at a race and that's never a bad thing, no matter where you're at.
