While I am not a big Nextel Cup fan, I am always curious when they run a road
course. I watched the last 30 laps of their race at Watkins Glen yesterday
and was interested in comparing the leaders' lap times with those of the Rolex
Daytona Prototype leaders who ran Friday on the same course. The DP leaders
ran about 1:09 seconds.
I cannot find any Nextel Cup lap times published. Nor were they shown during
the race. Is this common practice for NASCAR? I would guess that the DP
leaders were faster. Anyone know the answer?
