To those of you who say you hate NASCAR.. have you ever sat down and gave a race a chance? Ever seen the Daytona 500? :mischief2

 

Yeah, totally uncalled for action by those Talladega fans. Driver safety comes first. Sorry Junior can't win them all. :thumbdown

i think Bristol is the most exciting track.

Bristol is awesome too.

 

Nothing beats actually being at a race. You don't see the speed those cars carry on the TV.

 

If you're too classy to watch NASCAR, you're missing out on some good sports! :whistle

I was disappointed that they couldn't race to the finish, but rules are rules and you have to keep these guys safe. Overall though, great race

its a 30-something race season, and i can live with a few races ending like that

the great thing is the drivers will come back next sunday hungry for the win they missed out on the week before

 

man NASCAR is awesome

i love it when the races actually take place where NASCAR began...the South...Taladega, Daytona, Bristol, Lowes, Rockingham, Darlington, Atlanta, etc.

That's typical Talladega fans for ya. Throwin beer cans onto the track. Gordon won it fair and square, although I would've prefered to see the end of the race. Jimmie Johnson moved up to 2nd in the points standings. A good day for him!

and rusty got screwed.

Yeah but it sucks cuz they're taking races away from tracks like Darlington and Rockingham. I went to the final race at North Wilkesboro quite a few years back.

really there needs to be only 1 race at most tracks.

 

 

 

 

i wish there were more short tracks.

 

 

 

and i realize it now...my rusty comment was dripping with sarcasm...evne though it didnt show up that way.

I went to the Homestead-Miami race earlier this year, just to give NASCAR a chance and lemme tell you it was awful. Sure, they go fast but the excitement wears off after about 5 minutes. Then its just boring. And the crashes are always shown on tv but in person they're few and far between. Not enough passing either, one guy will have the lead for way too long.

 

In a country with so many great sports, I don't see how anybody could spend their time watching NASCAR.

 

And honestly, I took a nap during the race. I put my head down and closed my eyes for like 10 minutes. FishFan33 will tell you.

If you went earlier this year, then you went to the Indy Car race. The racing of Nascar is much more exciting IMO. :thumbup

good point, Fish Fan.

 

Also, I think it's cool that the NASCAR season begins and ends in the state of Florida (Daytona to Homestead).

True! And you can also make a case that they are the two of the most important races in the Nascar Season because one is the Super Bowl of Nascar and the other is the Championship race where everything gets decided.

that was just a boring race, bill elliot led the whole way until the last 2 laps. that was our first race and i know im goin back and miami15 aint

 

at least this year's race will probably mean something...

What percentage of NASCAR fans would you say are republicans?

75%? just a guess

What percentage of NASCAR fans would you say are republicans?

90

 

seriously

What percentage of NASCAR fans would you say are republicans?

seriously only 90?

I'd say at least 95.

Well I think the die hard fans who have been there for years are almost completely 100% republican. But the sport has grown so much in the past few years that its bringing in fans across America and so the demographic is growing less one sided politically with the newer fans I am sure. I think 75-80% is probably a good estimate.

long time NASCAR fans = Republican.

 

 

 

new NASCAR fans = not necessarily republican.

well....

 

 

or you could have a young NASCAR fan who reformed themselves into something better.
