My suggestion:
Those spoke things from the car race in Grease that shred the side of a car or tires.
couldn't find a better picture.
Any more ideas?

Spinoff from non-sports thread: make NASCAR better |
Lead | ||

We had a thread earlier on how to make soccer better. Let's throw out some ideas of how to make NASCAR better (tolerable).

Ramps, explosives. Basically make it like that Jason Statham movie, Death Race.

I could buy Crimson red, erect a shrine to the Bear in my den and start Screaming "Roll Tide" tomorrow. I could buy a ton of Orange stuff, some
orange socks, orange tassle loafers and learn the words to Rockytop tonight. I could buy a case of cheap corn whiskey and find a table in the grove Saturday -
I own Dockers, have a freshly laundered heavily starched white button down collar shirt and a $300.00 Blue Blazer in my closet. I could fake all of that OM
stuff until I got good at it - Why, just listen to me, "Hotty Toddy - where's my ice" - sounds authentic doesn't it? I know people who suck
crawfish heads and follow them up with a corn dog. I like gumbo and Old Crow. I could root for the Tigers down in Red Stick (WHo dat?) right away. -

Cars that go a lap down have to turn around and race in the opposite direction.

Award the most Winston Cup points... | #5 | ||

to the driver that marries his sister, so he'll fit in more with his fans.
Have rednecks in the infield shooting at the cars as they go around the track. Have all of the drivers high on meth, like their fans, while driving. Might make for more interesting wrecks.

paint a wall, then watch it dry. More interesting.

Drivers should be able to run over the pit crew of the other drivers! | #15 | ||

Take it off the track and do it on the interstates across the country!

Ricky Rudd rolled one of Bill Elliot's tire changers into the fender well with a sliding pit stop move at a race in Atlanta years ago. Covered him up with
a tarp and carried him away.
That was when NASCAR decided that cars should do no more than 30 to 50 mph on pit row. Effectively took half of the racing away in one fell swoop. Now they're all running the same small body(that looks like a Fiat)...with a wanna-be's wing on the rear deck. And you ask how to make it better? |

I am pretty sure a Croom-coached driver would | #20 | ||
|
drive the same line regardless of track conditions or car setup.
