| Daytona, Martinsville, Texas SBP, Zen Joltis 2011 is fun in cup cars, Richmond SBP, Iowa, and Las Vegas.
unless the season is 15+ races i wouldn't even think about a chase.

| Fuck Zen Joltis...I dont know why you guys love that track, its crap! All you do is hold down the throttle lap after lap. Where is the challenge?
I Always will push for Bristol (fun track).
I'd also push for all SBP tracks. Not this revamped crapola.
If I was running the series I'd run these tracks in this order:
1 Daytona
2. Texas
3. Richmond or Martinsville (1 or the other not both)
4. Pocono
5. Indianapolis
6. Bristol
7. Las Vegas
8. Kansas
9. Talladega
10. Watkins Glen
11. Kansas
12. Atlanta
13. Charlotte or Iowa (Iowa is kind of similar to Richmond so if you dont like similarity then dont pick it. Although it might be good as people can use a similar setup at Iowa for Richmond as tracks are similar.)
14. Phoenix (the newer version)
15. Daytona
As for time for me 930 is always better then 9p. With my work schedule and a baby 9 is always tough. probably why i been running less and less lately.
And if you want another short track New Hampshire is always a good option too. Not a lot of people pick that track for some reason.

| Quote We had a long green flag run there last time in trucks.
You were in the Trucks, enough said. Trucks are easier to drive than cup cars. And for the love of onions PLEASE DO NOT GO TO K E N T U C K Y WITH CUP CARS. Sprint Cup Series already revealed to me why we shouldn't. Unfortunately I don't think we should run a schedule similar to the Cup series. I would find it boring to race if I pretty much known backwards forwards and sideways the Cup schedule. In my opinion we need some flavor in that schedule and Scott's schedule is kinda what im looking for with Zach's idea of the chase. I believe that the schedule should look like this.
1 Daytona
2. Texas
3. Richmond
4. Phoenix
5. Indianapolis
6. Bristol
7. Las Vegas
8. Michigan
9. Talladega
10. Kansas
-------------------------
11. Watkins Glen
12. Atlanta
13. Charlotte
14. Phoenix
15. Daytona

| @T18 Tim what I mean is we shouldn't compose the schedule the way the cup one looks. For better clarification we shouldn't make the schedule like Daytona, Phoneix, Las Vegas Bristol, and so on because that is the way those tracks appear on the real schedule.

| I could care less about a chase. The tracks are by far the most important piece to the puzzle. The short tracks will be the tracks that require lots of skill to win, but you also have to have a good balance of short, mid and long. This way it keeps attendance up and you dont scare peeps away and you get good racing.

| Quote 5 is pushing it, but of a 15 race schedule 5 is a good number. The more races you have in the chase the more spread out everyone will get.
and thats from the guy who says he likes it when races are spread out (head desk)
and ending the season in daytona is wht ive always wanted nascar to do because its always such a tossup and its the ultimate nascar track (maybe youre right, a track with more skill maybe a good idead, would you suggest kentucky? maybe chicagoland? LOL HAHA JK
AND Jb is right, your schedule looks like a compilation of all your truck schedules put together (double head desk)

| I would like to end at Daytona just because that's what it should be, but heck we can end at any racetrack as long as its not Homestead.
