I have been watching NASCAR since I was a kid, but today's NASCAR is nothing but a money grubbing, commercial laden shit show. I am watching about 6 minutes of racing for every 2 minutes of commercials. Fuck NASCAR. It used to be fun, but I'd rather be at the pool than watch all these damn commercials. Good God, the producers have to be laughing at how many commercials are being aired.

I quit watching after Earnhardt died in 01. It's full of pussy crybabies now. Plus running Toyota and whoever else kinda put a knife in it for me.

Do they race Kias yet?

Like a soap opera. They bitch and moan for TV and then will bum a ride in a plane with the people they were just bitching about after the race.



Ain't nobody racing to avoid having to work in the mill/factory like a lot of guys in the past.

I am sure the OP will be okay with all the other sports out there like, Cricket, Soccer, Tennis, Golf, Billiards...

Ever since they went with cars that had the same profile I quit watching. Somebody needs to start a real stock car racing league again.

I would say don't waste your Sunday afternoon on NASCAR. Watch the race on youtube next week without the commercials - but - you still have to put up with NASCAR's bullshit. Last week they ran a 20 lap fucking caution because NASCAR was confused about the starting positions.

NASCAR has gone the way of country music - commercial, corporate, glistening eyes turned towards Hollyweird and being "mainstream."

I love the background noise.

I agree.

If it were production chaise cars, with factory block and head engines I would be 1000x more interested, you know a lot more like it once was. That's why I like to watch GT & circuit racing, tends to be highly modified production cars.

This.  Knew when every race ended up with a  carnival atmosphere that it would be spiraling downward.  They've also micromanaged and tweaked the rules to death, plus not listened to their long time fans.  I liked it much better when it was still primarily a southern sport.

Go back to if the aerodynamics of your car suck, you suck. Lose restrictor plates. Hire the best drivers and not just marketable pretty boys.

Restrictor plates suck.
Aerodynamic restrictions suck.

someone gets 10 seconds ahead of the pack, and suddenly their throwing yellow flags for a piece of candy bar wrapper that blew onto the track

drivers who don't have a chance to win crashing out with two laps to go when the leader all but has it wrapped up..

nascar: professional wrestling of professional racing
