Saturday seemed like a waste of time and $$ for all the Pros. Was the track prep to blame ? Or what was the problem.

they tend to test the limit on a hot track on Saturday if they are solidly in the field

Thru E3 lots of funny car drivers seemed to be getting an extra 40 winks on the starting line before deciding to go.

I haven’t sat and watched the tv coverage of one of these races in a very long time. Watching the finals show now… about 25 minutes into the show and they haven’t shown one burnout?? They cut right to the cars being staged?? Is that a time saving issue? That’s dumb. Fans want to see that. Atleast show ONE pair of cars doing it. Not a good representation of the race day fan experience. That’s my rant for the day.

I counted 5 explosions I think in first round!

Can someone speak to this? I heard there was an industry wide problem, and I believe I heard there were valve seats falling out. That could be wrong.

There is a valetrain issue, most think there is a bad batch of parts. But you can't tell by looking at them. Even the guys in Australia were talking about it last week.
