Lowering my Daytona 500 expectations

[mco65]

I like the road course races because it throws such a big monkey wrench into the typical strategy for a NASCAR oval track.

I like that you can pit under green and in fact PREFER to pit under green vs yellow and wont fall a lap down because of it. I like the section cautions vs the full course cautions... even though those sectional cautions are rare. I like the elevation changes that you simply don't get at an oval. And you can't beat the furious racing during a restart.. just crazy good action!

I could stand to see another road course or 2 for Sprint during the season but would hate to lose races at other tracks.. except for Indy.

i too like the road courses. in fact i would like to see road america, road atlanta, and montreal added to the schedule for sprint cup, and the july race at daytona changed from an oval to the road course.
