Cup race on dirt

 So I promised to try and blog more this season with all the changes. The Bristol dirt race was one of the 2 changes I was sceptical about.  I wasn't sure if it would put on a good race and I didn't know a lot about dirt racing in general. It also seemed like a waste to bring so much dirt on the track for only a couple races. However I was open minded because I have grown to love the imsa endurance races after watching the Rolex 24 these past 2 years. So with all that said here are my thoughts on the Bristol dirt race.

Early on in the race when Martin was dominating I was not to sure about it because it didn't seem like it was creating a lot of excitment. However as the race went on and I started to get more familiar with the way dirt racing looked it started to grow on me. By the time they announced that next spring would also be a dirt race I was like that would be cool. By the end of the race after the battle between Joey and Denny and seeing how Ricky was able to make moves at the end I can say I genuinely enjoyed today's race and I am super excited for next year now that I better know what to expect. 

I am excited because I feel like this past year I have grown from just liking certain races and only nascar to I have liked the imsa races and now this dirt race.  I am excited to watch Jimmie Johnson in the indy car races.  I have grown so much from the start of when I started watching NASCAR I was doing it with my dad then I thought races without wrecks were boring but I have grown to recognize the other ways there is excitment like battles for the lead. I also have witnessed how dangerous the wrecks can be and now they make me nervous. 

Great job today Nascar on prepping the track for such an amazing race and for the drivers for putting on a great race. I am genuinely excited for next years dirt race and it shows the versatility of the drivers who were successful in so many different types of tracks. It was a great race and well worth the wait.
