Column: Racing’s Blurred Lines

Five years ago, Kurt Busch said, “You want to race? Let’s race,” at Pocono Raceway five years ago. That quote struck a chord with me this week.

For the last few years, NASCAR lacked exciting conclusions that originally made me a racing fan. But this season, that excitement is starting to come back due to quality racing.

The best finishes occur when two or more drivers duke it out for the win. Whoever has the most drive to win usually comes out on top.

If a driver decides to be aggressive and put a bumper on an opponent, the intensity level increases.
