I sometimes wish there was a mandatory caution within the last fuel window, 25-30 laps to go. Fuel mileage races is my opinion are just boring. I know it takes alot of stategy but maybe that ought to be left to the chess players. This is racing. Bunch ‘em all back up and shoot it out!!!
I dunno. I don’t really mind the fuel mileage races too much as long as there’s a good enough group all on the same strategy to still make it competitive. Today’s race had half the field on one strategy, and the other half on a different strategy, so I was okay with it. Besides, Edwards had the best car, and he won.
