I wouldn't watch Nascar (live or on TV) if it was free...scratch that, I guess I would watch the cartoon version of it with the kids...Disney movie called "Cars"... that was much more entertaining...but then the cars talked.

What's an auto race without some accident once in a while? They got to keep those bored audience entertained.
NASCAR is fun to watch and most all the drivers do a lot for charities and kids. It's a great sport filled with great people and they are pretty darn talented.

'Cars' and 'Cars 2' over NASCAR any day! Seriously though, NASCAR should have an in-race rules enforcement governing body that alternates every race, like F1 has.

The accidents are pretty much all NASCAR has left.
They aren't North American Stock Cars anymore:
1. They don't run stock-style engines
2. They don't run any stock style body panels
3. The cars are all tube-chassis now, and everybody runs the same one.
4. Toyota, who is not North American, competes in it.

I have a client with one of those Torinos in his garage.
What a menacing machine in person!

As long as Tony wins it, it's all good.

That's when NASCAR hit its peak (IMHO).
The 426 HEMI racing against the BOSS 429. Two incredible engines in two relatively STOCK cars.

yeah, that actually had a part or two in common with the car I could buy.
I loved my 68 383 Charger. It was a great car at the time. Cheap, capable of 140 mph, and actually handled halfway decently.
It was also surprisingly light.

Kyle Bush is a whine-[censored] baby. He deserves to sit the rest of the season out. IMO I would fire him, make him find another sponsor.

They just don't run the cars we are used to seeing, and can purchase, and they dont drive the same anymore, that's where they really lost the enthusiasts...

My only problem with Nascar is that it`s WAY too policed.
see there someone does know that Richard Petty raced ford JUST ONE year. the nascar to day has nothing but idiots. we will never see an other Richard Petty. regardless of the brand he drives.
I do not approve of what Busch did but he is a unique individual where NASCAR is loaded with sterotype personalities. Guys like Busch, Tony Stewart and very few others really standout from the crowd. Racing in general just is not that interesting anymore with the exception of Midget racing such as the annual Chili Bowl in Tulsa. Back in the late 50's and into the early 70's a buddy and I use to attend USAC and IMCA Sprint Car races all over the Midwest and Plains states. That was real racing complete with unique personalities.
I am wondering if NASCAR has turned into the next big time wrestling. (did I just say that?)
Nascar just isn't what it used to be. How many of you guys know what year did Dale Earnhardt drive a Ford Thunderbird??
Cars driving around and around and around and around and around in the same circle for hours with speed limited cars. I never understood the sport.
Letting them mix it up and cause some crashes at least keeps things interesting.
