Although that old restart proceedure looks chaotic, getting another yellow before the tail end of the field took the green was not nearly as common. Restricting where a driver can go when behind another who had a bad restart has resulted in far more torn up racecars.
Can pass on restart is dumb. I get it for when restarts were single file. But if the leader is on the outside and the inside starts off with an excellent run they should be allowed to capitalize l
Kinda funny how whenever I have a craving for sports, I hop on here and watch NASCAR or NFL or NHL or literally anything from the 80s and 90s instead of watching anything live these days.
Restarts now: carefully regimented and orchestrated via electronic timing and scoring
Restarts then: fuck it, we ball
Amen
Some things never change. Like the fact that, in NASCAR, things will ALWAYS change . . . Especially the rules!
NASCAR will change rules during a race.

Love vintage nascar... Takes me back to watching races with my dad as a kid. Todays nascar is nothing like the past.
Yeah I'm pretty sure the single file restart rule during the peak was "the best." NASCAR Hardcore community is sometimes dumb asf

Thank you for the knowledge, the 80s put yall on the map, good ole racin
Nascar In the 80s really was Don't die (optional)
I remember Jeff Gordon once said in an interview how everyone would be going 5 wide down race tracks. He wasn't kidding
The '03 Truck title was decided on a restart violation. There was controversy with single-file back in the day too.

And they ain't wrecked in 80s. Drivers back than was much more skilled.
Well except in the late 80s because that’s when the cars started to become a bit too fast.
Haha
