No question I know my NASCAR history, and it's the recent history that has me worried. Ther have been many articles in major automotive publications recently focusing on the decline of NASCAR. For a while I would read them with skepticism, because I didn't want to believe what I was reading. Now I realize that they're not only right on target, but that the Toyota move is/was one of the few growth moves NASCAR could make and we all know how well that one's going over. Until they find a way to make more weekends in a year to have more races or expand to a multi race weekend, I think it's not only hit the proverbial wall, but their showcasing of those premier teams who look good on the magazine covers and merchandise get all the 'breaks'. Imagine that, Tony Stewart...
