I had never been a Nascar fan until a supplier took me to the Vegas 400, I still don't follow it closely, but I have a profound respect for talent of the drivers. You can't fully grasp how fast those cars are going on TV, but when you 6 rows up, it'll raise the hair on your neck. The only people crazier than Nascar drivers, are Alaskan Crab fishers, and Bull Riders.

Well said! The best drivers in Nascar are equal to, or better than, any of the drivers in any form of auto racing in the world. Anyone who thinks otherwise doesn't know shit about Nascar in particular and motor racing in general. The only thing that could work to the detriment of some of the Nascar drivers is physical size. Look at F1 drivers, they are a collection of near midgets, driving cars that only very small people can even get into. That is not to say that there isn't some very real talent there ...... but F1 IS a club for very SMALL drivers and American open wheel racing isn't much more accomodating for drivers of average size or larger. The anti Nascar assholes here are anti ANYTHING American and merely demonstrate their own ignorance with their horseshit rants.

Wasn't it Hemmingway that said "Only auto racing, and bull fighting are sports. The rest are just games?"

A test of the emergency broadcast system.
Please don't let the niggers into: swimming, nascar, or hockey.

That is the kick JBoss. I have a good friend who could never understand my fascination with motorsports until he had to go to the inaugral race(for his work)at Texas Motor Speedway. He said "when the green flag dropped and those 43 cars were coming at me I was instantly hooked"...he still is hooked. After a while he started watching the F1's Irl's etc..

I have a friend who was with A.J.'s pit crew for 20 years. There is a story that used to go around the Speedway.
How does a Indy car driver get into his car? He climbs in, takes the steering wheel, puts it on, and inserts the push pin.
How does A.J. get into his car? He climbs in, picks his balls up, puts his balls in the car, takes the steering wheel, puts it on, and inserts the push pin.

A.J Foyt is my all time favorite driver. I also believe he is arguably the best ever. His versatility was unbelievable. Aj would chew up the current crop of young punks and spit them out his exhaust.

My favorite driver is that dumbass redneck fucker that crashed and now all these stupid fuckers in piece of shit cars get decked out in his number.
What a bunch of fucking hillbilly morons.
The only thing stupider than NASCAR is the Grand Ol' Opry and Brannon Missouri.
Oh yeah...and tennesee and dolly parton, and the evangicals
