At least it would be a legit yellow flag that we understand rather than how they insult our intelligence. As for loosened rules maybe yes and maybe no. I don't think our car builders would create aero packages that preclude passing. I don't mind NASCAR controlling the engines. Perhaps some chicanes on the cookie cutter tracks to put more into the handling and driving than just speed.I for one make no attempt to watch the mile and a half tracks.
WE'VE MOVED!!!

C'mon, man... Smokey Yunick, Junior Johnson, & Richard Petty were all about "getting everything they could get" through aero--in the mid '60s.
I will wager they did not think about passing, they thought about being faster than the other guy through advantage.
If you are faster, there is no passing to be concerned with, you just leave.
