May 4, 200422 yr Why on earth is Dale Earnhardt, Jr on here? He's not even close to being the best NASCAR driver. That title goes to Jeff Gordon. And for the record, I hate both these guys.
May 4, 200422 yr Race Car Drivers are considered athletes? Better not because there doing nothing that exerts energy. Except making sure your car don't crash.
May 4, 200422 yr Race Car Drivers are considered athletes? Better not because there doing nothing that exerts energy. Except making sure your car don't crash. can you do it? no heres something you can do to understand how much energy they put out: grab an encyclopedia. hold it out in front of you. when your arms get tired, turn your arms to the left. do that for hours and hours. no energy? dont think so besides, why is little e there over 24? 24 has 66 wins, much more than junior
May 5, 200422 yr The boys just raced out in California last weekend. You know how hot it got? It got so hot in the cars that Kasey Kahnes ice pack started boiling in his suit. Roll your windows up on a hot day, and turn the heat on full blast. See how long you can last, genius. Try 500 miles. :whistle

A lot of people cant do things others can does that mean its a sport. Some people type faster than others is that a sport. Some people play videogames better than others is that a sport. A driver is not an athlete he might have a special talent for driving but that isnt a sport.
May 5, 200422 yr It's a sport, it's not a stick and ball sport, but it's a sport. It takes tremendous strength. I will rest my case here. You can think what you want, it doesn't bother me. The only thing I ask is that everyone honestly considers it rather than automatically stereotyping NASCAR as a bunch of rednecks driving in circles. That's just plain unintelligent. Have a nice day. :cool
