WOW!! lol people are funny. just because nascar is popular theres a ton of haters. i understand people dont like circle track racing but when it come down to it what makes nascar 1.a driver 2.a crew 3.a car and like every other type of racing a goal to win. the key componets to all racing! Yes they have a unlimited amount of $$$$ and the best of the best enginers for a full bodied stockcar. ``` Nascar is what it is close door to door racing with full bodied cars racing against each other for the same goal to win. ``` Think you can do it ? just think about it 190mph with 2-3" apart with a car thats bouncing around sliding with others pushing you past your cars limits. with $1,000,000 cars. One wrong move and weeks of hard work and $$ are down the drain + your career is always on the line while you’re racing for hours in stifling heat. Im a fan of any kind of racing! nascar is the most televised type of racing. If thats your beef, then blame the other sports’ publicists and marketing teams. If any auto racer from any type of auto sport thought about it they have to respect nascar for so many reasons. It would be totally ignorant to say nascar racing is easy or there is no skill there. ---

BTW… Ive heard a few comments from people who came from other types of Auto Racing into Nascar weather it was Nationwide or the Sprint cup, all said it helped them when going back to whatever circut it was they came from. IDK, maybe its because I grew up around Oval racing and have been around and working on dirt cars since I was little. Seriously thou, thats fine if its not entertaining enough for you to watch, but don’t make it seem like its a weaker form of autoracing. I’d like to see a lot of people who think that way get into one and bounce/slide and get bumped at 190+ while constantly fighting the wheel over every bump in the track while your within arms reach for the car next to you ---

I met a bunch of buisness prefeshionals (not hicks) that werent hard core fans but respeted the sport. Up here alot of people are againts it with out understanding it. It drives me crazy people hate and spread hate about something they dont know anything about and auto racing is my passion. now up here it seems to be the cool thing to bash nascar? i just dont understand ? sorry people i just said my thoughts i see this wasnt the best place ! ---

Saying it’s boring isn’t bashing it. Bashing it would involve saying it takes zero talent, and the drivers all suck ass. Lot’s of things are boring. Like this thread for instance. ---

I can’t watch it for hours, I find it outrageously boring. I enjoy watching the shows where they go inside the Race team shops and stuff like that though. And visiting Daytona and going around the track in person was pretty sweet. Just my PJB opinions. ---

It’s a shame it’s really all because of money/sponsors. Too much reality shit. Don’t get me wrong I’m all down for a boob toob night with jersey shore and the like, but that’s where the money is in TV these days here in the states. Nobody here(US general public) really cares for forms of racing like WRC or BTCC ☹ Total shame… ---
