Haha Nascar does suck!
I dont think it is as popular as everybody thinks. A mere mirage. Think about it. Nascar has over 500 sponsors. Each sponsor gives their employees tickets to the races. So how many fans that attend the races arent employees of actual sponsors? I doubt very many.
Nascar is a bunch of grown men with testosterone problems racing around in circles for hours on end.

The drivers mix with the fans. Fans are aloud to watch as they work on the cars. People say, "all they do is go in a circle. " That is what I used to think until I really paid attention. If parents think the show CSI lead their kids to science, they need to look into NASCAR it will peak their kids interest in several areas. The drivers are clean cut. Drivers do not rule NASCAR.
I also like Football and Basketball, but if you break the sports down they are just as "boring" as NASCAR. Oh, I know I don't have to break baseball down. So, don't knock NASCAR until you watch it and think about what is involved.
GO MIKEY!!!!

OK, your the second person downing NASCAR & it's starting 2 annoy me! It isn't just driving in circles! Have u ever heard of RESTRICTER PLATE RACING???? That requires BUMP DRAFTING. LET'S SEE U GET IN A STOCK CAR & RACE! U wouldn't last 1 lap! Like I told the other guy, NASCAR is the best sport! NFL, NBL, NHL, etc. ALL SUCK!! Why do people have 2 criticize things u know NOTHING about?!?!? There's also a thing called ROAD COURSES!! There they make LEFT & RIGHT turns! Saying all u do in NASCAR is 'drive fast, slow down, turn left, repeat' is just dumb logic! U can say that with any sport! Football: All u do is run back & fourth & throw a ball at eachother! Oh by the way, GIRLS WATCH NASCAR TOO!! Learn these 5 basic rules: 1) NFL SUCKS!! 2) NASCAR RULES!!!! 3) DALE EARNHARDT JR. RULES NASCAR!!!!!!!! 4) STOP TALKING BAD ABOUT NASCAR!!!!!!!! & the most important rule, 5) DALE EARNHARDT JR. IS HOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Let me tell you something. You are entitled to like whatever sport you want. I happen to like NASCAR. You are not being forced to watch Nextel Cup. Turn the channel, walk out of the house. I am and always will be a NASCAR fan. I grew up with car culture, my brother-in-law worked on classic muscle cars that make mincemeat out of today's import stuff...My mother and I used to watch ABC's Wide World of Sports, and yes, a SPORTS program had NASCAR racing as part of the show! Let me say this...it's no sunday drive for a Nextel Cup driver. There's more to it than turning left. As a driver, you have to be on top of everything in the car as well as what's going on on the track, with the other 42 cars...your car had better be good, not too 'loose' or 'tight' and God help you if you blow an engine, battery goes dead, or any number of mechanical problems..and you have gotta stay out of something called "the big one" which is a multi-car pileup that can take you out, injure, or even kill you...Let's see you, NASCAR haters, try to drive a Nextel Cup car. Oh yeah, you don't have the guts enough to attempt it! Oh yeah, I'd bet you would never drive a Formula One or NHRA vehicle, either. What a bunch of wusses you haters are!

get a clue xenmas, there are over 100,000 people in the stands every week, over 200, 000 at some tracks. MAYBE 1200-1500 of those are guests of the sponsers. the rest are diehard fans like me who spend our hard earned money for the privelige of being in attendance for the fastest and most exciting sport in the world. you don't think it's that popular? have you seen the TV ratings? it's the second most popular sport in america behind NFL football. do you think only the sponsers are watching? why is it so popular? it's because of the speed and the stradegy and the drama of human competition. in other words it's so popular for the same reasons the NFL is popular. oviously the people who have answered this question just don't get it, and i feel sad for you, you have no idea what an awesome sport you are missing out on

NO WAY! NASCAR RULES! it is a way for drivers to release stress, and fans to get drunk and laugh at them as they hit the wall! I love NASCAR and everything that has to do with it. I wouldnt change one thing, its especially cool if you know the people racing personally, then you get all nervous and worried and everything. Once you've been to a race, it gives you a whole new appreciation for the talent in the sport.

Maybe because people find auto racing an enjoyable sport....
Maybe because it's nice to see athletes (don't even argue that) that give back to the community...
Maybe because it's a more fan friendly sport that lets you get close to the action, whether it be a pit pass at a race or something like the Petty Driving Experience...
Maybe it's because WE LIVE IN AMERICA AND HAVE THE FREEDOM OF CHOICE!!!!!!!!!!!!
Maybe you should turn it off if you don't like it...I'm not a fan of golf but you don't see me ripping people who are...
And by the way, racinggurl37....seeing drivers hit the wall is not the best part of racing, and it's not funny...if you know any drivers personally like you say, you'd know that...I'm sorry you think that makes you an actual fan...

nascar sucks
It is popular, but only for toothless, tralier park, bushwackin, wife beating, busch-drinkin, hoosiers. There are alot of these people, and you can find them in jeanshorts, flip-flops, sleeveless black t-shirts carring a cooler at nascar events. It is thanks to these people that nascar has such a classy following.
