The end of the Dover race proved that the current car CAN show off some great racing, but it obviously also depends on not just a drivers' ability, but their teams ability to maximize the little bit of flexibility they get in the set up of the car.
There's a part of me that thinks the double file restarts actually showcases the CREW CHIEF'S abilities as much as it does the drivers. Without 'lap cars' to pass, EVERY RESTART will be a true showcase not juse of how a driver restarts but how their crew chief was able to tweak their car to get better over the last run.
Yeah, there's always a few laps of racing at the start of a race, but Pocono being such a long track will also show that they get stretched out pretty quick too...
NASCAR has always had top talent both in-car and on-box and now we'll really get a chance to see how well 'in-race changes' are able to be made to make cars better or worse.
And now that Digger's gone from the TV coverage, we won't be distracted by those darn cartoons either!
Cheers folks!
