I just read an article on yahoo sports saying that NASCAR is putting an even smaller restricter plate on the cars in order to reduce speeds. REALLY?! WHY?! I miss the old days before the "Cars of Tomorrow" when those guys hit 2 Bills. now they're lucky to hit 180. I hate this. Come on NASCAR let them guys drive fast!

I'm not too big on restrictor plates, but I will say having them is what helps the cars form the big packs we see at Daytona and Talladega.
