I don't like NASCAR either. If I want to watch motorsports - real racing on a real course I'll watch Formula 1 or WRC. That's
[hr]
racing where a driver is constantly working, either full throttle acceleration, impending lock-up deceleration, pulling multi-g turns or, in the case of WRC sliding sideways on a single lane dirt road at 100 miles an hour with trees and rocks feet away from both your bumpers.
Put a NASCAR driver in a WRC car and he'll wrap it around a tree or tumble down a cliff and soil himself, put a WRC driver in a NASCAR car and he'll yawn himself to sleep.

well the truth is, most nascar cup drivers started their careers on road courses and dirt tracks, none of the drivers woke up one day and said G i want to be a nascar cup driver today, lets go do it. do your research first buddy.

formula 1 = zzzzzzzzzzzzz
much rather take 8000 horsepower and go a 1/4 mile in 3.9 sec @ 330 mph.
thats racing.
4 wheels? try only being on the rear 2 for half the track.

O.k. a few good points. If you like watching cars go as fast as they for as long as they can without much care for accelerating, decelerating, or turning in any direction other than left; that's for your NASCAR fans. I can respect the intense endurance by both driver and machine.
If you like watching cars accelerate as fast as possible in a short show of fuel-wasting, tire-melting force without much care for decelerating or turning in any direction; that's for your drag-racing fans. I don't much care for drag-racing, it's the epitome of waste in my opinion - burn as much fuel and put as much stress as possible on every component in just a few seconds.
[hr]
; yes, wastefull; absolutely, racing; barely.
But if you really like motorsports, if you really like watching people do the best they can with a vehicle doing what it was designed to do - accelerate, decelerate and turn, then Formula 1 is for you. Similar endurance as NASCAR but with the most extreme forces involved in any land-based vehicle. There is no slow or any kind of comfort with these cars. Full-tilt boogie all the way. They are the fastest accelerating, fastest decelerating, hardest turning automobiles made.
But if you want to watch all the goodness of hard-core motorsports without all those wussy tire and compressable barriers, without safety crews seconds away, you're obviously looking for a real mans racing; WRC.
Take some time to watch an hour of NASCAR, an hour of drag-racing, an hour of any kind of motorsport, then compare it with an hour of WRC. If you don't think WRC is the most intense, most difficult, most crash filled motorsport out there......well, you'd be a hopeless uncultured couch surfing lazy.....
I'm a die hard motorsports fan. Of any motorsports, I've watched nearly every kind at some point in time. I know some have seen the semi-truck racing, Some may have even seen the "up-the-white-water-rapids-as-fast-as-we-can-in-a-jet-boat" racing. Those that are true motorsports fanatics have to have seen a Pikes Peak Hill Climb. Anyways, different motorsports have different extremes and people like them for different reasons, I get a little offended - more like saddened by the stupidity of those that don't/can't recognize what all is involved for both man and machine.

NASCAR SUCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
why watch some cars drive in a circle over and over again? it's really really not that entertaining.
i would rather scoop my eyeballs out with spoons then have to watch those stupid races.
some kid in my english class just saved up 500$ to go to the Daytona 500, kids have been making fun of him for it relentlessly.

well at least you agree... and if you are interested in fast... i'd like to see you and a mantis shrimp, if i tape one for 15 hours straight will you watch it?, or a humming bird? will you watch one of those fly in a circle just because they move fast??
