I rated it 5. We lost some of the best drivers way too early and even at the end of it all the race came hardly alive.

I give it a 3 because of single cars file, and JJ winning the race.

I don't need 10 flipperz and a photo finish to make a race good for me, but watching them drive around completely unable to pass, was not fun at all. I think the gen6 car can be great, but this race sucked.

I am one of those who voted 6. Some good, clean driving I thought. Seen far worse races. Some better.

Gave it a 3.

While Danica did well and stayed out of trouble most of the day, JJ winning the race and the single-file racing for the majority of the day is the biggest reason why I gave the race a "3."

3 - It was ok. Could have been much better but could have been worse.

Piss-Poor. A massive let down and the worst Speedweeks I've been witness to since I first started watching in 2003

Gave it a 1

That was boring, the finish didnt make up for the other 180 laps. Had my hopes up before the final debris caution...

And FOX didn't really help, too...

The worst coverage of a racing event I've ever seen. Shit. And the only glimce of good racing we had was spoiled by a debris caution. Lame as fuck. My 3 is way too generous.

6 - could be better, but it was the first race with the new cars, so hoping things look up for the rest of the season...

5. Maybe I'm being too generous about this.

2. Watching 43 cars go round in single file for 3 hours just doesn't do it for me. Couple of points for the Gibbs cars trying to spice things up by breaking down and the racing with 20 to go, but then the final caution just ruined it.
