Yes...get rid of the COT!

NASCAR put too much money into, and hyped it up too much, and they are too arrogant to admit when they made a big mistake, so we will have the COT for a long time to come.

I had a NASCAR official/PR type gush to me earlier this year about how the COT would level the playing field and would give a chance to the teams who might not be running a bunch of cars and had a ton of money. Funny, the teams winning the COT races seem to be big teams with lots of money.

I'll say it again, NASCAR came up with a solution to a problem that didn't exist. All of the safety features could have been implemented in the existing cars (which were already pretty safe).

NASCAR is just going downhill, and I'm not sure that they can reverse it at this point. Let me rephrase that - they could fix a lot of the problems they have going on, but they might anger some of the big money that's floating around.
