Message: [QUOTE="Red Holzman, post: 4992295, member: 7255"] Understand restricted HP/speed- The leaders backed off to run half-throttle during Daytona, backing up the pack with goal to conserve fuel. I get the "saving fuel" strategy for a leader trying to last to the finish line who has a gap to the 2nd car allowing that. I don't get a pack of cars loping around at half-throttle in the middle the Daytona 500(?) Bumper-to-bumper 3-wide 20+ cars up front for the closing 10 laps is apparently what NASCAR wants. The resulting carnage seems like Russian Roulette, making finishing position more luck than skill. JMHO! [/QUOTE]
