I used to think the same thing. Until I realized how grueling and intense it is to sit in a car for 3 hours going 150+ MPH surrounded by cars 4" from you going the same speed taking those left hand turns and not ramming into one. 

It's a very skilled "sport" that requires the driver knowing a lot of **** about how the car feels and turns and all that mechanical garbage

Upper body strength is needed.
Try a simple go-kart for an hour or so.
The kind where you have to drift the curves just to keep up gets you tired.
And concentrating intensely adds to that fatigue.

I'm not even a fan but it is a workout to race.

Like my buddy watching wrestling (which I made fun of too).
He said there is definitely some real athleticism involved in all that choreographed bs.
He's right. Still full of goofy crap, but . . .

Does it matter spinning in clockwise or counterclockwise for centrifugal force to function the same way?

Expanding situations are directly opposite contracting results between erosion and decomposition where evolving doesn't leave anything of substance same form shaped since original combination of elements or chromosomes.

Everything is connected for one reason, universe exists in a state of perpetual motion limited to forms never same shape twice between details added and results decomposing inorganically or ancestrally here.

why is every faith humanity exceeds adapting as displaced won't incorporate thermodynamics in their spiritual fantasies and/or scientific interpretation of life cannot be limited to adapting as displaced and there is no such thing as physical absolute ways living is self evident?

Most people that criticize NASCAR as a "non-sport" would be worn out after making a 500 mile road trip going straight down the interstate at 75mph making bathroom and snack breaks every 100 miles.

These guys are racing 41 other drivers door to door through corners at speed averaging around 180mph, while holding onto a 3500lb 750hp machine that's trying it's best to slide into the wall the whole time.

Turning left for 500 miles at speed definitely isn't a "leisurely drive" to the beach or anything. Lol

Judging NASCAR by the audience members seems to be the stance.
Ergo it is not a sport...   

Look at the fat, stupid slobs that watch football...  Little league baseball... Whatever...

To be a race fan you need to have a general understanding of aerodynamicmgrip, mechanical grip, tire wear, weight and balance, over seer and under steer (loose and tight), now temperature affects both the tires and the engine, etc etc etc. Aswell as fuel mileage, strategy, etc.

I was pointing out the POM stance.
Apparently he's got a thing for rednecks and hillbillies.
...probably goes for ghetto trash instead.

Sorry, I wasn’t questioning your post.  I understood.

For such a red neck sport yesterday’s prayer before the race was given be a black female minister and the race was won by a guy with a black man on the car.  That car is owned by Michael Jordan and the driver is from CA.

The correlation with "rednecks" goes back to the sport's roots when redneck bootleggers would get together and race to see who had the fastest runner in the bunch.

Just a bunch of good ol boys never meaning no harm.

That pretty much changed in the 90s.
