You didn't think it was messed up before?
the quote from jim hunter scares me as ma grand am fan. by simplify i hope it does not mean dumb down. this is not a series that needs to chase the lowest common fan denominator, imho.
I think the outcry is hilarious, that Grand-Am's going to get messed up now that it's officially under NASCAR control as opposed to being seperate in name only before. Compared to ALMS and compared to where it was pre-Daytona Prototype, the dumbing-down has already happened....
pre nascar grand am had the best broadcasting setup, good car counts ,no chase ,no top 35 ,no cot five chassis and engine manufactures, good exciting races now thanks to the braintrust at nascar they are going to simplify things. i think grand ams days are numbered. nascar hate competition that is why the frances help destroy open wheel racing and now what to attack touring series.
