All-Star Race is it a sham?
OK so here's my rant. I think it's cool that the fans get to vote in a driver for the All-Star race. BUT ... I don't think it's fair to the drivers out there that the media basically campaigns for one person every year and of course that person gets the vote. Not all are bad causes cause I remember a few years ago they said they were supporting Kyle Petty to raise $ for his charity. Yeah that was ok. Then they just keeping picking people. When Truex Jr. came on the scene Dale Jr. came out or the media/most fans and voted him in. Ok I can see how that's maybe alright cause Jr. is popular and ya know I guess Truex should be able to get some benefits from it right. Then all the Speed guys wanted Kenny Wallace in the race. Don't get me wrong, I love Kenny, but he's just not that good, he hasn't run with the big boys in most recent times. And now this year Dale Jr. again is out there saying, oh vote for my buddy Sadler. Another huge support from the media. Sadler is an ok driver. I used to like him a lot too, but man his performance is just wishy washy (technical term). So I wonder who will be voted in this year? It's just like man can't they give the drivers a fighting chance. I saw an interview with Kvapil and he was really excited cause he was trying to get out there and get the fan vote too but then he was like oh yeah so I heard Jr. is backing Sadler, so we're really stepping it up to race our way in. It's awesome one person can race in, but I just think it should be less bias for the vote. Well just some food for thought today.
