Default The only exciting thing about Nascar - 11-02-2009 , 01:29 PM






Is the wrecks, and they want to do away with those.

It's totally boring without wrecks, and drivers complaining
about them, who the hell wants to watch cars run in circles
for hours without some good carnage on the track?

not me!

Then you're not a real racing fan. As someone who watched the 2001
Daytona 500 live I beg to differ. Both Tony Stewart's backstreach
crash and Dale Earhardt's fatal crash, are diffult to watch until this
day. Not to mention the very next year I got to see Greg Biffle and
Jeff Purvise flown out in front of the grandstands at Nazareth after a
bad crash in turn one. The 2001 Talladega 500 was the last race
without a caution lap. Bobby Hamilton, who was considered too old. won
the race with pit strategy that you could never do today with all the
damn cautions. I'll never forget Hamilton and teammate Joe Nemechek
both sitting down in victory lane with oxegyn (sic) masks and water.
They gave everything they had and it showed. Much better than that
garbage they tried to pass as a race yesterday.
