I used too. NASCAR creating the chase because Kenseth actually did what everyone knew was posible, winning the championship without a win but very consistent top 5-10 finishes all season, then keep dicking with the chase because all the "top talent" didn't always make it in was too much. Calling it the playoffs and adding heat racing was the final straw for me.
I remember when they'd have 50 cars show up just about every week trying to get in the field of 43, now they've cut the field to 40 because there aren't enough cars.

my brother in law graduated from the academy, a few decades ago. One of his commands was a SEAL delivery platform out of Little Creek. It was a quiet time, right before September 11, there wasn't much for him to do. He got called in one day for a mission and was very excited, the mission was taking a SEAL team 7 miles out, dropping them off and watching them swim back to shore. I've had some interesting tours over the years. The CIC doesn't get sterilized when the CO brings in a guest.

If one weren't a decades long fan, one would think this kind of excitement wasn't possible before the geniuses that run nascar created the chase...

The "Underbird"!! Wasn't a ford fan, but that an awesome season! His strategy at Atlanta that year, to gain the extra point needed to secure the championship was epic! Still remember tuning into Nascar Live (I think that's what it was called? Used to come on Tuesday night's at 7pm on the radio) and hearing about his plane crash.. Gutted! Same thing with Davey.. :'(
When Smoke came back to beat Edwards, was that in the chase era? :raspberry: :snicker:
