I just want to say I love the NASCAR XFINITY Series. I believe it has potential to return to its former glory and I have no problem with Cup drivers winning the occasional event (emphasis on "occasional"). I'm also a fan of Pocono. It's a big, unique, historic track that's been in NASCAR for many years and has a list of winners that reads like a Who's Who of the sport; Gordon, Earnhardt, Petty, Bonnett, Allison.
