I hate the direction racing is heading

Call me old...but I am NOT a fan of buybacks. Furtherance of "everybody gets a trophy" mentality (even though we don't race for trophies). You go to the starting line, give it your best shot, and live with how you and your car performed. Is that bad?

I did a 1st round buyback last year for the first time. Felt odd with the guy that put me on the trailer seeing me in the staging lanes. Went 4 or 5 rounds and into the finals (and slept!). Didn't feel like it used to as I knew I "really" didn't belong there...at least in my mind.

2nd round buybacks? Like PBR said, why not all the way to the finals - then we would never have a race to conclude? No such thing as a "winner" with this type of nonsense going on.

Double entry? Just as bad or worse. Money grab is all it is.
