"Celebrate before, stopping a race for anything but a crash or weather is pure BS to bunch up the pack because if effects the outcome."

B.S.! The pause time is during the normal Stage 3 stop of the race...

"That kind of thinking is why I don’t watch NASCAR any more."

Yep! NASCAR's patriotism causes many fans to turn to watching the NBA or soccer leagues where hatred for the Nation runs rampant...

The Stages are ridiculous. All that so they can bunch up the pack and hand out some points. NASCAR is BS.

"The Stages are ridiculous"

With that I agree... Was created to give TV more time for advertising and boost TV viewership...

Worked out for the first... Not so much for the second...

Yes, before. Because they’ll figure out a way to get 7 whine in front. And how Penalize Others.

The rules today suck. It just isn’t of interest. Toyota Camrys? Ford and Chevy barely making cars anymore? Restrictor plates(hurl!). Big screens or not, I remember vastly more interesting times.

I wasn’t aware of all that. Since I haven’t had a TV in several years, it’s been some time since I’ve watched Nascar, or anything else on standard TV. Been mostly relying on my PC for news and entertainment. But that will be changing soon (hopefully).
