F1 is the best $42,000,000.00 high speed parade to watch (i.e. after the
chaos of the start, ... there is no change in order - unless a horse dies) !

I dont see what the point is to watch NASCAR anymore. Every week
it seems the same cars qualify basically in the same spot. The same
cars almost throughout every race are in front in the middle and in
the back. Also every week it seems the same cars finish at almost the
position each week and the same cars week in and week out for the most
part are a lap down. There are a few exceptions but it seems as though
its a repeat week and and week out.

The money issue as far as big budget teams and teams that are
hardly funded is crazy. Why cant NASCAR do something about this. I
mean its the same crap week in a week out. RCR, JGR, ROush,
Hendrick.Those are the only teams that we see in the winner circle
for the very most part. I'm very bored with NASCAR. I used to like it
but lately its too predictable and boring.

Would be nice to see someone who isnt talked about week in and
week out like a Mike Bliss, Kenny Wallace. Instead we have Junior, JJ,
TS,JG,Harvick stuffed down our throats...Would be nice if the playing
field was balanced but its not...

if they would run stock cars, it
would be much better.

yeah, I'd like to see them run at about 80mph....

stock cars can do 130-150 mph
A full blown cup car runs about 130 at a place like Loudon.
How fast do you think a "stock" Ford would run there?
How exciting would that be??

How fast do you think they'd run at Martinsville??
Where even a real race car has to just about stop in the
corners?

Exciting? 130 at Lowes?? Atlanta?? Michigan???

racing. and joe six pack can run

Cheating would be rampant. Safety would be non-existent. Talent would
run for the hills. Lawyers would end up running the competition.

To survive, racing would end up right where it is today.
