NASCAR could use more plate races, but not in Chase

Before and after every race at Daytona, the same question is always asked: If Daytona is NASCAR's most famous and exciting track, why doesn't it host a race in the Chase for Tthe Sprint Cup?

Some have even suggested that the Sprint Cup season should both start and end at Daytona International Speedway, which hosts the season-opening Daytona 500 and the mid-summer classic.
