seems silly to have two 500 mile races at Pocono within 8 weeks, they could spread them out a bit, or only have one and shorten it to 400

I agree with the spreading them out part, but Pennsylvania weather (especially in the Pocono area) tends to be iffy.

Yeah, but it's iffy from the end of March through to Thanksgiving. You could move these races anywhere you want on the schedule and the weather is still a roll of the dice. Pocono is a fun track, and fast. But it's not one I'd ever go back to see a race at.

Having lived in the northeastern US my whole life, Pocono was last on the list of tracks to attend. And yes, I have been there.

how many debris cautions will they decide to have in this race? All the cautions in the last Pocono race were for "debris"

ARCA with more entries (46) than the trucks? It's too bad I can't afford to buy a CWT and start and park it, guaranteed a top 30 finish. :lol:

Most cautions are now for "debris." The COT doesn't really spin out or wreck. It just slides. Last week at Indy there were at least 3 incidents that would have been hard wrecks if not for the COT. Logano somehow skating all the way through turn 4 comes to mind.

What a fucking sham NASCAR has become.

The COT is just too stable and dull to drive imo, which corresponds to less crashes.
