I still wish NASCAR would start up another league (Southern League) and run all of the old tracks down South that aren't used by NASCAR anymore. N. Wilkesboro, Hickory, Old Nashville Fairgrounds, Rockingham, another Darlington event, a Bristol, Richmond, and Martinsville event.
I think this could be a big money maker if marketed right.

That, my friend, would be phenomenal.

NASCAR has lost a lot of its core fan base over the last 10+ years. This might appease a lot of us rednecks.

We could get Dick Trickle, Rick Mast, and Bill Elliott to race

Throw in Nemechek, Mayfield, Ward Burton, Randy Lajoie (sp), and then some young new talent.

I miss Ward Burton. No matter if he wrecked, finished last, or won, he would always say: "We had a really great car" in his Southern drawl while his chin never moved

Ha! Here is a video where some guy says "We had a really great car": http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rFux9ON0fs8

He failed to qualify one week. He said he had better things to do anyway like go home and feed the chickens and hogs on the farm. A true country boy.

Here is a good example of Ward: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C2MpBgBEzes

Man, whatever happened to Jerry Nadeau? I know he had a horrific crash, but damn, I thought he would come back. He had raw talent.
