Four Wide: Time to stop racing altogether at Talladega?

By Jay Busbee

Bringing you the best in NASCAR news and opinion. Get your day rolling right ... or left, whichever.

• An unconventional view: it's time to stop racing at Talladega. Well, that's one solution. [Baltimore Sun]

• The No. 1 problem in NASCAR today? Nobody respects anybody anymore. [Stock Car Spin]

• Who is NASCAR's No. 1 Twitterer? One word: tacos. Check out the list of top 20 drivers over at Scene Daily. (Hey, I'm still ahead of David Ragan and Aric Almirola!) [Scene Daily]

• The story behind how Texas got its second race and Rockingham lost one. [Racin' Today]

• Could Dodge be sticking around in NASCAR for the long haul? Let's hope so, for everyone's sake. [Detroit Free Press]

• Ricky Carmichael is leaving Kevin Harvick Inc. at the end of the season to run in the Camping World Truck Series for the new Turner Motorsports. All righty, then. [Catchfence]

    I comepletly understand Nascar officials wanting to keep everyone safe,but if your not allowed to race plus one team running away with the points lead every season your not going to keep a lot of fans.Maybe Nascar can keep blaming the slow economy for the drop in ticket sales.
