With Kasey Kahne officially returning full-time to Nascar in the Truck Series in 2027, that got me wondering—what else should come back next year?
—The All-Star Race Plinko Board—yeah, it was gimmicky. And yeah, it never worked. And yeah, inverting the field is kinda passe. But I want it back, dangit!
—Shared Pit Stalls—as inconvenient as it can be, its pretty funny when a random backmarker winds up having to shuffle its decade-old war wagon with the latest technology because a championship contender failed inspection.
—Manufacturer Service Program Sponsorships—no, not the random ToyotaCare ones that show up on Legacy MC cars when they don’t have a real sponsor. I want the return of GM Goodwrench Service Plus! Bring back Ford Quality Care Service! And…um, whatever it is Dodge has!
—Local Sponsors—back in the 90’s Delaware had MBNA (which no longer exists) and DuPont (which is now essentially Axalta). Come on, you’re telling me we couldn’t get a Dogfish Head Brewery or a Gore & Associates sponsorship for one race?
—Derrike Cope—come on, bring him back for another Cup race!
