Today's Nascar race

I understand racers wanting to race all the time. But if I was racing in cup i would only focus on cup races. Too much of a risk racing in another series. Dale Jr missed a bunch of races when his car caught fire racing on an off weekend race. This could ruin Kyle's chance at a championship before the season has started.

Almost seems like cheating to me. Cheats the young guns out of a field of like contenders and cheats the other cup guys cause they have way more (practice) laps and a better feel for the track and its nuances. Kinda like taking a test after reviewing the answers.
