(useless, but oh well...)
I find it ridiculous that the BY 400 doesn't roll off before 1:40 - 1:45! Thanks to NBC, I'm sure! Though I'm only a paying customer and one of the bottom feeders of NASCAR, I think the race could start at least an hour sooner. After fighting traffic etc. they could at least send out some bands or so-called celebs to entertain us
Seriously, though, while I don't have to drive that far to get home, one of my family members who loves the BY had to drive another 3 1/2 hours and then go to work this morning and I hate it for her. I know a lot of us do that for the sport we love, but in this case, it just seems like the BY could definitely be started sooner. A time comparison - by the time the Brickyard finally gets the green, the 500 is almost over.
I just think it's very sad that a TV network can dictate the start time of any event to the detriment of the actual paying customer, but $$$ talks!
