which do you prefer? for me its LMS, you get variation in the types of cars, cars there which you can get orgasms of because they look so good, if you dont like long races you can watch the last hour and half or so, if you like endurance races you can watch whole 6 hours, or full 24 at the actual thing. F1 is a rigged procession, and NASCAR is boring to watch, cars just going round and round in circles for ages. what is the point of em XD.

Mine is Le Mans-type racing (American Le Mans Series in the US, Le Mans Series in Europe)...the cars are fantastic and actually have a lot in common with current and future road cars, the racing is just as tight and competitive as NASCAR/IRL (I was in turn 17 at Sebring and WATCHED the GT2 leaders banging fenders for the win at the end of 12 hours; the 10-hour Petit Le Mans was nose-to-tail for the last 3 hours between the awesome turbodiesel Audi and the lightweight V8 Porsche....

This is just intended to be an honest question why NASCAR is so intriguing to everyone. I notice that this Auto racing forum revolves mostly around NASCAR, so I thought I would ask.
So, what makes NASCAR so much better to watch, etc. than all other auto sports? Please explain to a non-American born person living in America the attractiveness of this sport!!!
Please also defend why this is so much fun to watch... I understand that they are going stupidly fast, but it seems mostly repetitive.
Thanks!

Why is it that nhra has more members,more tracks, and more active racers than nascar but does not seem to have nearly as large of a fan base.

What I mean is do they have a certain down time, or do they keep going every Saturday night year round? If I go to 12 hours at Sebring, could I also take in some local late-model stocks while I am there?

Since FOX took over Speed TV, it has performed one of the complete bastardizations of all time...let's rename it MEAT-HEAD vision.

Is it possible they could have a NASCAR spokesperson/commentator who sounds like they have an education level higher than a HS drop-out...

Wh0re-vision...NOPI

Butchers which try to pawn themselves off as engineers(PIMP my ride, and that other block head a-nal retentive guy I can't think of who slaps on body parts and kits to cars/trucks...and the chumps who pay top dollar for barn-yard quality work.

Lot's of crashes...lot's of T/A....lot's of stupid programming geared toward a 6th grade mentality...

Let's HIGH-FIVE FOX!!!!!!!

If you think he should,then what about Richard Burns? Would more fuss have been made if they had been F1 drivers? Is Rallying considered second class compared to Formula One?

I'm talking about auto racing and local tracks.
Late Models
Open Wheels
Bombers
Road Hogs
4 cylinders

Keep in mind some places call these classes by different names!
I personally like to watch the Late Models and 4 Cylinders!

It's either called GT racing or Grand Touring Racing this is almost perfectly represented by the Gran Turismo video games. These types of races feature The BMW M3 GTR, BMW Mclaren types of cars there mostly german and japanese and famous tracks that these races are on are the Laguna Seca Raceway, Nurburgring, Le Mans track.


Is there a certain age I should be to start out training or racing?
How do I become a racer without having to start out with go karts or something thats not a car?
Am I required to have a special license or will they teach me and provide me with one?
I'm 16 with a reguler permit is it too late early or perfect timing to start any type of training out?
I'm attending High School is training going to interfear with my Monday-Friday's 5AM-3Pm school days? (These hours include bus rides and stuff so i'm not actually in the building this long)
Where in NC can I get training?Required weight? Height? Bench press? IQ? grades in school? College? Equipment?

Racing where you take Porshe's, BMW's, Viper's, Maserati's, Jaguar's, Audi's, or pretty much any other German, Italian, French car or any from europe some from America oh and cars ftrom Japan compete in this racing. This racing is represented in the Gran Turismo video game series better then any other video game. Regular sports cars are converted to have more power and performance and sponsers are added. Races can be on the famous Laguna Seca Raceway, Nurburgring, or Le Mans. An example of the cars used is the BMW M3 GTR, BMW Mclaren, Dodge Viper GTS, these aren't cars that are one seated speed machines that are similer to formula one.


So what is this racing called?
What do I have to go through to become a racer in this racing?
Is it possible to become a racer from places in the Eastern U.S like is there a college I should go to or are these career path's only available in California and Asia and Europe?

I think it was Damon Hill the last UK world Champion. (Someone correct me if I am wrong.) It is nice to know we are good at something anyway, and even if he finishes second in the Championship he has done brilliantly for a rookie.

I have notice over the years, I have seen a number of Japanese ex-D1GP drivers have defected to Formula D, a few examples are the 2004 D1 champion Ryuji Miki, Mitsuru Haruguchi, Seigo Yamamoto and from what I heard NOB Taniguchi

Is it the money from the import scene that is attracting them, because they are getting better money there or what is it

I'm a female, 21.... over the past 5 or 6 years, I've gotten really into racing. I am into Nascar, and try to get involved in dirt racing. I work at my home track, Eldora, because I LOVE it. There's no where else I'd rather be. I love the adrenaline, the smell, the country atmosphere... and there's SO much to learn about the sport. Now the question is... when guys realise my passion for racing, are they intimidated?? Do they think this is weird? Think I'm a hilljack hilbilly? Why do they seem to think I'm a freak??
