What a joke - Goodyear sucks

The race at Indianapolis is one of the Top 5 events of the NASCAR Sprint Cup season and Goodyear ruined it. Start, stop, start, stop … what the hell? The idea behind racing is to go fast, not having to worry about NASCAR throwing a competition caution every 12 laps.
It was just pointed out to me, this race is all about pit stops. And it was pointed out by someone who hates NASCAR, so you can only imagine how I felt watching the race.
I am a race fan and this year's Brickyard 400 was pitiful.
If NASCAR thinks that what we watched on Sunday was RACING then they need to see a shrink. The tires literally disintegrated as the cars went around the track.
This was a big disappointment — the only saving grace was that I wasn't spending my budget by attending the race. Thankfully, I traded this year's Brickyard for the Sharpie 500 at Bristol in August.
