Don't know about you guys but I love "newer" Bristol.

Absolutely awesome race. Short track racing, at it's very best.

Grind the top of the track to prevent people from running it? You're doing it wrong Bristol...

Pretty good race, some people were using the bottom lane, but it was still high-line dominant and didn't look like a much different Bristol than last time, just had more wrecks. That was the only change, more wrecks.

Good job once again by Vickers grabbing a top 5! Kahne with another solid rebound, not sure if he actually hit oil or overdrove the corner, but he made some great moves those last 30 laps to get into the top 10 and make a run out of it.

Felt bad for Mears, he was rebounding and running in the top 15 before cutting his tire there. Good drive by him, held onto the lead longer than I thought he would the first 20+ laps.

Au contraire, mon frère! As opposed to there being three equal lanes of racing, there is now one dominant groove. There's still a bottom groove, and it can be used, but it's extremely difficult, but possible.

That's implying the lanes were equal before Razz

lol

Only a select few could make passes on the bottom line last time, still the same now, but I'm not complaining, I enjoyed the race, hell, the finish came down to a bump n run sorta, just with like 40 to go... lol

That was a very entertaining race, they managed to make the high line better when they try to kill it. that kind of had the old single groove feel to it but opposite, and instead of the bump n run we had the slide job, not sure how long that nice polished high line will last though.
