NASCAR Online Racing
NASCAR has announced a new policy on how to restart the race will be handled. Instead of going to the lead lap cars in line and the car has rolled out bottom row, lapped cars will go back. This is a very smart move by NASCAR.
The fans have been frustrated by the resumption of NASCAR policy. The same situation arises again and again. Green flag waves and the car is removed first to a huge lead. Why? The cars behind it have to thrash around trying to pass back markers that are in the bottom rail.
In theory, this approach is designed to allow the lapped cars for a chance to get in front of the car in first place and again in the lead lap. In fact, almost never happens. There is, after all, a reason cars are a throwback!
The recent All-Star Race was a big eye opener. The cars have restarted in two rows and Racing was wild. Cars were driving in the space between the rows. Frankly, that was the best race we've seen in NASCAR in a very long time. Surprisingly, NASCAR appeared to be agreed and made the change.
So how does the new policy? It's pretty simple. The lead lap cars line up in two rows at the front of the field. Cars strange position [3, 5, etc.] is ranked in the bottom row with cars, even placed on the top. To perform the first position value, the leading car can choose if you want the top or bottom row with the car, the second to take the other position.
The new policy is a winner of a couple of reasons. First, it will do for racing much more exciting than we see now. This is especially true for the final restart of the race. Instead of seeing the second struggle to boost cars around the outside of a lapped car, will really see all the front runners going at it. It will be great!
You should be happy with this change even if you do not like the new policy. Why? NASCAR is the action. Television ratings have declined more than ten percent, and anyone watching a race you can see all the empty seats in the stands. The only way to rectify this situation is that the races more exciting. This is a big step in that direction and we can expect to see other changes. Making gains more valuable from the perspective of the points would be the next logical step.
