They probably only aired the pro opinions for 2 reasons.

1) NASCAR told them to promote the 2 car draft as a good thing

2)The Majority of fans who were against it (and I'm guessing it was a lot more than was aired!) couldn't voice their opinions against the style of racing without using multiple swear words...

It's how I'd react if asked that question too... :p

Steven Wallace taking severe liberties with Danica there, I thought that was ending in a wodge of bent metal.

Yeah, I know he's mad and I don't care. I do not care. I did not care then. I do not care now. I'm here to race him.

Marty Reid is a tool.

"Is this three wide or six wide?"

They interviewed people at the track. If you think this kind of racing sucks, you're not going to spend your own money to see it live, are you?

Like right there.

And plenty of drivers have won races on both two and four wheels. ESPN needs to be a tad bit more specific.

Those first couple of laps show why they need to go back to the pack racing. That was crazy right there. Good stuff.

I know it's not always his fault, but every race with Ricky Carmichael in it seems to have a caution involving Ricky Carmichael.

Wow, that rear tire sure didn't waste any time in going flat.

On board from his car would've been scary as hell as he faced the entire pack coming down at him at 200mph

Thank goodness no one slid up into him, has there ever been a nose to nose crash at a RP track? :?

All the time!

Oh, outside of NR2003?

Newman's last flip at Dega comes to mind...
EDIT: or not. It went differently in my head.
