Why doesn't rap have any place in racing? I mean, what about Mark Martin? He's one of the best NASCAR drivers in the garage and at 47 years old, he is a big rap fan, and I hear he even has a rap theme song. Should he be kicked out for liking rap? The sports are growing, and there's nothing we can do about it. This is why people always stereotype NASCAR and other forms of racing as a bunch of rednecks. Cause they think people can't stand change. Well, you know what? I'm a racing fan that thinks other forms of music is a nice refreshing change.

What are some of ya'll talking about? What rap music did they play during the race? I watched the race the entire time and they did not play any rap music. Are you talking about that song they played at the end when they were showing replays of the entire race? That song was not rap, that was a rock song.
And what's so bad about rap music? You need to open your eyes and realize that this is 2006, not 1976. Nascar has fans that come from all backgrounds who love different things. If you haven't noticed Nascar has become more diverse. I mean, there are many drivers who actually listen to rap music with Mark Martin being the #1 driver who does this. Dale Jr listens to rap, Tony Stewart, etc!!
Some of you need to open your minds. Nascar is a sport that people of all races, ages, sexes, backgrounds, cultures can love.

If you didn't notice there is more than one person in racing and to be competitive and open they might do things that might not satisfy one person. On any given race weekend the city makes $120 Million do you think they would change advertising and music selection for you? How much of that would you be willing to compensate the racing league and the cities that host the races if they were willing to change it to a good ol boy race where you can sit on the back of the truck and listen to country with your overalls on. Open your mind an realize that the world is made up of all types of likes and dislikes. To be a man in this society you need to learn to adapt and accept change and people for who they are (get out of the backwoods of the swamp).

What difference does the music make?
There are race fans from all walks of life, what is the problem?
Everyone has preferences...get over it.

OK? not sure what's got you so upset? maybe you should try not being such a "hater"
Rap's not on my list either, I'd rather see classic rock or delta blues, but all types of people watch racing these days.

dude.. go for it, but honestly, i don't think they are going to give a darn..
it's not about the type of music..it's about music that first the segment..
i think perhaps you should look into writing yourself a note on simmering down.

don't know exactly what you are talking about, but if it was played during the telecast you're emailing the wrong people. if it was played at the track, you're emailing the wrong people. but... more power to ya!
