Hidden: Big guns in the Bush league: I don't see how it is fair that so many Nextel Cup drivers are allowed to drive in the Bush series. If they want to run with the Bush guys make them pick only five races per season. Bush was developed so newer drivers would have a season of their own to gain experiance and attempt to get to the big league. They don't even have a chance in the points when you have Stewert, Martin, Bush, Kayne, etc out there running them down because they have better access to set-up technology and engine tuning. Keep the the Cup guys on thier playground and let the Bush guys have their own sandbox. There is surely not enough money in Bush to attract the Cup guys.

I agree it pi$$e$ me off how 8 of the top 10 driver$ run full time in cup and mo$t winner$ thi$ $ea$on are Cup Regular$, the only one I non-cup winner I remember David Gilliland cau$e I dont watch the Bu$ch $erie$ anymore But NA$CAR wont do anything cau$e all NA$CAR can think about i$ $$$ and do you think the average NA$CAR fan whoo$e never heard of Todd Kluever and Matt McCall would rather pay to see Jeff Burton and Kevin Harvick battling for the win or Todd Kluever and Matt McCall battling for the win I know I would want to watch the 2 young guys battling for the win the rea$on wont do anything i$ cau$e the get more money like thi$

But if you don't have the cup guys you don't sell seats nor do you get full fields. Just look at the race when you had a 71 year old that made the field which by the way only had 41 cars not 43 since alot of cup guys didn't come. Your dambed if you do and dambed if you don't. I don't know about anyone else but I'd much rather see the cup guys then a bunch of 71 year olds running around the track.
