When they started making the cars look like cookie cutter ones with only decals differentiating them I completely lost interest. It basically turned into an IROC series. I would feel for all those who make a living in NASCAR, but wouldn't miss it at all if it went under.
I agree with some of your opinions; for me I am not so put off by the displacement thing but, I agree 110% about the cars being cookie cutter with decals used to make them resemble the production cars.
Can't the teams built all of the safety into a car that uses production body panels? or at least some of the panels.

I also think the Chase thing isn't adding anything to the sport.

I agree that the races are more like a IROC series and less of a competitive sport.
