Is truck racing the best in all of NASCAR or what?

Question

This is just an opinion...

I know that the truck series doesn't have all of the pretty boys in it, but they can sure put on a show. 3 wide battles for the lead with 75 laps to go...you don't see that in the cup series. Plus they don't throw the caution if a driver gets a hang-nail.

Who agrees with me?

Answer 1

I agree !! Constant passing,up on the wheel and on the edge of your seat !!! I wished a couple of those drivers would defect ''BACK'' to nextel cup !
The only bad thing about ''watching'' the trucks is, Knowing that toyota is soon to dominate the cup series,like they do in the trucks. ''IF''.... Nascar let's them !! You know !!!

Answer 2

To a point I agree.
I dis like the chase horrible but along with that I can't stand the green white checker either. The race needs to end at the distance it was suppose to. To have it end under this GWC is way to easy to manipulate the ending.
I think you might be right about the cautions too. I have never seen a series like the cup series through so many cautions. That is so hard to understand to me.
I think they get stuck at driving at to many bad tracks though. I can't stand the cookie cutters and it seems like they run those and the want a be a cookie cutter too all the time.
I don't think there are any more 3 wide racing in the truck as cup though. On certain track they both do.
I don't care about the pretty boys. I just want to see racing and not so screwed up by some idiot's" it's my series so I will make my own rules up as I go" crap racing either like you have with the NA$CAR series.
NA$CAR is about money now not racing as we once knew it for those of you that are old enough to remember the day when there was no BS like there is today.
Cautions create commercials commercials create $.
The green white checker and the chase can be controlled by drivers from a leaders team or by a sister team. That is why this format is wrong.
I watch NA$CAR stuff when there isn't anything else on.
This is just my opinion too.

Answer 3

I agree that the racing action is good, but most of the drivers are washed up former Cup drivers or guys that will graduate to something else as soon as they win a few races. If you want to see better drivers try Nextel Cup, Busch series, Indycars, F1, Champcars, A1GP, GP2, American LeMans, real LeMans, German Touring Cars, World of Outlaws. I'll stop there although I could probably go on. So I'm not that impressed by the Craftsman Truck Series.

Answer 4

Shorter races, Not dominated by a few select teams, Cup drivers can visit but not dominating, good finishes. Championships usually come down to the last race of the year.

I would have to say that there are many times when the Trucks put a better race then the other divisions.

Answer 5

It is a lot more exciting than the cup races. I don't watch racing for the pretty boys, I watch racing for racing. The trucks put on a great show.

Answer 6

I love trucks and the Craftsman Series, and yeah, it's the best of the 3 Cups out there, thank you for spreading the word with me. Funny thing is, I'm Hispanic, and for some reason i like NASCAR...the White Man's sport...i'd get murdered by my friends if they found out i like this stuff.

Answer 7

Its just great watching these trucks go at it, great side by side, sliding all over, and they are shorter races as well, great action packed, Toyotas, chevy's and fords win..The championship thing this yr with Skinner and Hornaday its awesome..I love watching them at night..Trucks are fun, and its great racing as well...They have some of the wildest crashes..Yep, I love the trucks.. Come on Hornaday..

Answer 8

I especially like watching them when they run at O"Reillys Raceway Park in Cleremont In. I used to race ASA Camaros there when it was IRP back in the early 80s!!!!

Answer 9

I really don't think so, but thats my opinion.

Answer 10
