    Get rid of restrictor plate racing in NASCAR.
    Never, under any circumstances, consume a laxative and sleeping pill, on the same night

    Dave, to each their own. Shoot, when I was a teenager I used to watch pro-bowling on TV. I loved watching Earl The Pearl Anthony roll the ball. Watch all the golf you want.

    I don't see how the cars could be stock. The drivers wouldn't survive the wrecks.

    How about undulating floors in basketball ? Seriously, I think they should make the basketball larger in diameter in the pros .. makes the outside shot and ball handling more difficult.

    I love watching baseball but there is too much dead time:
    -once in batters box, batter can't step out, if he does a strike is called
    - catcher or pitching coach can only visit the mound once in an inning, second trip by either one
    ,pitcher must come out
    -pitcher must deliver pitch within 30 seconds of getting ball
    - if the appeal of a play can't be decided in one minute the original call is kept
    - not sure of this one but maybe no throwing the ball around the infield after an out

    The intentional walk rule change will make almost no difference

    NOOOOOOOOO! The best part of equestrian is a woman in boots, breech and a show coat!!!! Well the dudes can wear t-shirts, cargo pants and Jordons for all I care though...
    Of all the laws Brandolini's may be the most universally true.

    Your bandsaw weighs more when you leave the spring compressed instead of relieving the tension.

    You can't throw out the engine formula from NASCAR unless you allow a LOT more downforce and then the cars will look like Lemans cars. A 5.8L engine built with no formula could easily be in the 1,800hp range NA and MUCH more if forced injection was allowed. F1 got current NASCAR HP figures from 3L NA engines over a dozen years ago, they have since moved down through 2.4L to 1.6L turbo V6 engines. IN the mid-80s with few restrictions BMW 1.5L turbo engines were making over 1,300hp in qualy trim in cars that weigh half of a current NASCAR with a LOT more downforce and mechanical grip.

    The problem with auto racing in the 21st century is without tons of specifications and rules (a formula) cars would be undrivable for a human.

    While I could wax on about every racing series I really like race events where the race distance is split in two and the second race has the order is reversed and the first heat winner starts dead last, it is the best racing you will see.

    While my first love is F1 I really enjoy rally (WRC) and the Isle of Man TT. WRC showcases the epidemy of what a driver is.
