Kyle should be glad people like myself are taking notice and enoy the trickle down effct of that. Last I knew Nascar was hurting, so lighten up buddy. Without her, Nascar would have most likely seen record low attendances and sales.

NASCAR is relaxing some of its rules this season, and encouraging drivers to show more aggression and emotion, in large part to answer a growing fan sentiment that the sport had gone stale.
