First, what’s the difference between watching Kyle Busch race against Matt Kenseth, Kevin Harvick and Carl Edwards on Saturday and watching Busch race against Kenseth, Harvick and Edwards on Sunday? They are the same cars, the same names, ho hum. It’s great racing, yes; frequently better than Cup. And star names may help fill the stands. But from a pure marketing standpoint, NASCAR is still spinning its wheels here. Give ABC-ESPN, the new Busch tour TV partner, more to work with." and "The first item on the agenda for France and O'Donnell should have been major new body styles for the series: Make this tour a new, trendy version of the once-hip Trans-Am tour, taking advantage of the new-look muscle cars such as the Mustangs, Camaros and Challengers, and promote it straight at the 18-34 demographic." and "Kill the common templates on the Busch side. NASCAR should get out of the car-design business and let Detroit build these cars again. Open it up, and let 'em all yell and scream about, 'Your front bumper is better than mine, so I need a rules change.' Put some life into this thing."
