Now your talking. Nothing like a top fuel dragster blasting by you at 300+. Raw power is where it is at men! I'm not much into NACAR as my neck begins to hurt after 1/2 hour of repetative motion from right to left.

That was a bit caustic. I apologize.

Dale Jr. will be with Mountain Dew/Pepsi next year it looks like. Bud will be going with Kasey Khane. Mark and Amarola will be in the 8 car with continued Army sponsership. Regan Smith will be in the 01 car for a full ride.

I love NASCAR, used to like it, and love baseball, until that strike in the early 90s, and then dropped baseball.

It might sound silly, but I like the competition level in Nascar, I like the fact that they teams use real jacks, the cars aren't fuel injected, They are V8 four speed cars, I understand what all the drivers are saying. I like the history. I like to read about Smokey Yunick, Fireball Roberts, Jr. Johnson and such.

It's loud, brash, and the cars are indestructible compared to Cart or F1.

That's it, I'm basically just a redneck, I guess.

I love the COT, it's a ton better looking than the older car, which was beginning to look like a late model.

the racing at watkins glen is probaly unforgettable. all those passes in the grass? if they did that in the current car theyd be runnin in the back most of the day. i cant wait to see what will be like at talladega and the 1.5-2.0 mile tracks next year. and that means i really cant wait till i go to MIS next june. ive been going every june race for the past 4yrs. i went to the august one for the first time this year-IT SUCKED!
