A good part of the fun of Nascar is the tailgating before the race.
I went to many races 15 years ago and many were very boring to watch. I do think Nascar has done a lot with the next gen car and tracks to make the sport better because just like me they were losing fans.

I went to F1 and nascar at COTA in 2025. There were more people at F1 practice than at the actual nascar race. No comparison from an attendance standpoint. And i didn't have to wear earplugs during F1 race.
To be honest, I never felt too much interest for NASCAR, or either for F1. Both are games for kids.

I'm a RALLY guy :D

Rally is cool, so is Superbike and Dirt biking.

I'm really into F1 last few years but the issue is it's so damn boring most of the race. You have to record and watch with fast-forward. Hopefully new rules this year with DRS will change this

It's funny, I suspect the "champagne" comments in the ad were aimed at F1, but that can also go for IndyCar at most any race - certainly all the street races have lots of four and five figure high-end hospitality suites along the courses.

As European, this will just make things even worse here. Because some political parties have been feeding the idea of USA being evil, and everything from there deserving to be banned and destroyed.

I'm more scared than ever about having my almost brand new DH scratched from side to side by any moron... (I guess I need 360° cameras linked to 12" shotguns :D).
That's exactly right. Many people here in Spain, because of the politicians, have a very mistaken idea of the American people; they think they're bad, and then when they go to the United States as tourists, they completely change their minds and want to go back to United States again.

I'm not worried about it getting scratched or anything like that, but I do put a locking bar on it. I'm delighted with my GT.

I get it. Whoever is in the lead after the first turn generally wins the race

Exactly!
Some of the track line Monico, you can’t even pass.
Seems like they are really pushing Indy this year, maybe I’ll try to get into that

20 years ago in texas, we went to the sheetmetal auction after the bush race. Bought a dale jarrett race driven hood. Driving through the parking lot to leave, we went past an RV. Door wide open, music playing. Inside was a naked biker hairy dude holding a bottle of jack, dancing with a naked woman. Lol
