I have 2 tix for August race in Kulwicki Terrace, sec I row 19. This is between turn 1 & 2 in the second level under the cover of third level. They are chair back seats, and in an excellent location. They are season tix which means they are good for both Friday & Sat. races. $277 each.

Just want to let those know who have expressed interest, it's time to make up your minds and make an offer.

excitement for bristol is at an all time low. it's still prolly one of the most popular races, but nothing like it used to be. it's sad really...

how do you mean?

i'm looking forward to the race still, but we're not making it a weekend like we have the last 4 years.

the last 3 years the race there has gotten terrible (compared to what it was). it is a combination of things that have made this happen. the chase, the resurfacing (though some would disagree here), the COT. you can find tickets to the night race relatively easy now and in years past, there were just none to be found. we had season tickets for 11 years and let them go this year (due mostly to cost and having to pay a year in advance). they are just too easy to find now. no reason to have to put up $1200 a year in advance. i love bristol, but not as much as i used to.

I think it's better now, not as many wrecks which I believe is why some don't like it. I prefer to be able to see side by side racing rather than bump and spin. I liked Johnny Benson's answer Friday. "Anyone can bump a guy out of the way, it takes a good driver to pass without touching." (He won his 3rd in a row)

I would imagine it's better racing to watch in person and I'm sure the drivers like it better
but I like the old Bristol better sitting home watching on TV. Bristol was in a class by itself in relationship to the others tracks, now it's not. I will look forward to other short tracks over Bristol now.

i am sorry, but it has not made the racing that much better. the announcers like to paint the picture of "side by side" racing at bristol. there is more of that than there used to be, but it is still bristol with out the excitement. the cars do not race side by side enough there to make it that much better. you could count on one hand the ammount of competitive passes that are made on the outside there.

you must be watching a different race.

if i said it once, i've said it a million times. if you want to see racing, go to Bristol. if you want to see wrecking, your local demo derby will be more than happy to have your support.

which is about 2 hands more than the passing on the outside with the old configuration.

i do agree that there is more passing on the outside than in years past, but it's not "side by side" racing. that eludes to 2 lanes. there are 2 lanes at bristol, but the bottom is gonna win 9.5 times out of 10. bristol was always very exciting, and it's just a smaller version of these 1.5 mile boring tracks now. some people may like that. me, i prefer the old bristol that i grew up with. that racing made bristol what it used to be "the most exciting race of the year". not so much anymore.

i just call them like i see them. imo bristol last 3 years = boring. nascar last 2.5 years = boring.

yes, like i said earlier. the chase has hurt bristol as well. once they started that, the night race started sliding. seems like a lot more conservatism there instead of the all out wild race it used to be. it's just my opinion, and i may be just down on nascar now, but i can tell a defiante difference there now vs say 5 or 6 years ago.
