Too bad the rest of the "Canned Ham" series is so pitiful.
The "Daytona Prototype" spec racers are the most hideous contraptions ever put on a road course.
But that's what happens when NASCAR people get involved with road racing. They hate it and continually try to make it go away, just like they have done with their buy out and control of AMA PRO motorcycle racing.
The fans stayed away from the Mid Ohio AMA PRO weekend in droves. It used to be the second or third highest attendance race weekend on the Mid Ohio calendar, but not any more.
NASCAR is the death of real racing.
Be sure.
