Restrictor plates is when I started to not pay attention. I loved the super speedways. Dale Earnhardt finally won Daytona then, died there a few years later. Then they got woke and here comes a black driver named Bubba. Then the FBI is snooping around the pits and garage and found the very 1st noose in the history of the sport! Football and BBall are taking knees. The football boycott came around and made it real easy to want to ignore the races. Bunch of fags ruined a good thing.
“Restrictor plates is when I started to not pay attention.”
That’s when my interest first started waning and I no longer really cared if I missed watching a race or not. Then, not long afterwards, every race ended with a “shoot-out” and the winner of each race was not who had the better car or drove the best, but instead who survived the wreck that always happened just a few laps prior to the end. All the cars were identical with the only difference being whether sponsored by Ford or GMC/Chevy.
Next, the fights on the track and rivalries started to resemble WWE. I just stopped even tuning in. I haven’t watched a race in about five or so years.
I bet within a couple of years, they will start having a “trans-only” race each year in support of those mentally ill cretins who have never watched a race in their lives. The Bud-Light destroying trans guy/gal will probably even have a race sponsor.
The drivers who got out at the top of their game and when the interest in racing was at its peak were smart to do so.
