I don't see a ton of uncouth remarks. Where are they?
Recently this board was infested by adolescent trolls claiming to be F1 enthusiasts and attacking NASCAR and its fans. That might account for a few disparaging remarks. I personally doubt that they knew anything about any sort of motorsports.

I like all forms too.
I don't know why it is like that. I think most of the real nasty remarks obviously are from young people who just don't know anything but NASCAR. They want to think that there are no drivers as good as NASCAR drivers and in reality there are drivers that are good as if not better and they are in love with stars of NASCAR not the speed and control of a car. Their driver your driver is this their that.
F1 is getting better but lets face it some of the tracks are pretty boring and that doesn't help. I watch them all most of the time when they are on Sunday morning and watch live timing too.

It is retalliation to the F1 trolls that cut down NASCAR.
As a fan of NASCAR what wins on Sunday sells on Monday,Jeff Gordon wins then Chevy sell more on Monday/Tuesday.Same can not be said with the cars that run F1.

I personally have no beef with F-1 fans. to each his own. We've had (as has been mentioned) a problem with trolls coming here and bashing NASCAR in the name of F-1.
F-1 isn't my thing, but that doesn't mean I think F-1 fans are stupid.
I'd like to think that mot other here feel the same way.

Formula 1 "Funny Cars" and the classic dragsters aren't as popular as they once were in the early 1970s, when Don Gartlis and Don Prudhomme ruled the strips.
And until these and Super V racing categories net PR savvy media wunderkinds like NASCAR, they'll likely stay in the "Redneck Racing" levels......once held (and some still say does) by NASCAR itself.
I'm also hearing this "Texas Outlaw" style racing is really catching in states OTHER than Texas......so stay tuned: NASCAR might get some real competition.

Because it doesnt get the sponsorship or the well known drivers or the TV rights and commericals that Nascar gets
Plus is no even close to Nascar as far as excitement goes.

We're not badmouthing Formula One, per say. It is our resident tr0ll, who's name is Formula One.
He likes to bash us, and when we ask and answer questions with negativity, it us usually directed at him/her/it. On the whole, we don't hate formula one, as far as I have seen.
