I see people out there spending money on the car to improve it … If you spend half that effort just working on your driving skills, making you and the car work together as a team, then you’ll go faster – period. To make the car go a second faster on the track takes a lot more energy and money than making yourself drive it one second faster.

They didn't show enough of the mayhem. You know... going 6-wide into a corner that's wide enough for 3 cars, late-braking your way into the dirt, getting behind the smoking car that's surely on its last lap (but, somehow manages to finish the entire race smoking like that), fun stuff like that.

Well the Reno track was over 2 miles long. And they had 40 cars drop out the 1st day.. If you go out to youtube you can see there was TONs of room on the track. Not like the parking lot at CMP.
Almost makes me want to do a Reno event.. ..

Idunno. The 3/8 mile oval in Detroit was a bit small, but entertaining. CMP seems about right at a mile or whatever it is. LeMons would be pretty boring without traffic, though.
