Through a fluke in my usual tv habits, I ended up watching the Daytona 500 race yesterday. I used to watch racing on a smaller-regular basis but I haven't in half a decade.
D500 is a 500-mile, 200-lap race of endurance. First, you have to survive. It is a restricted-plate race so all the cars have the same HP and therefore get bunched-up, nuts-to-butts, for the entire race. To get past that restriction, they work in teams to draft and even push each other to the front.
That seems dangerous at 200mph!
Fuckin' yea! What a fucking mess (squared)
I might watch Talladega!

Re: A New Love for NASCAR
Ya know, I always feel like 'a yokel' when I watch NASCAR ... I get my yokel on; it's very southern. I'm kinda a misplaced southern anyway. It's all good. And fun.
To see it live, it cost about $30 bucks to get a good seat. Compare and contrast to $XXXX for NFL. And there you almost never see anyone getting killed ... at least not in the same decade.

Re: A New Love for NASCAR
If you want to see faster cars and a better chance of death, you have to watch Indy Car. I've never been tempted to go up to Loudon when NASCAR is up here, but I've been caught in the traffic going up there on I93 a few times.Rob Lister wrote: ↑Mon Feb 18, 2019 7:00 pmYa know, I always feel like 'a yokel' when I watch NASCAR ...

Nothing wrong with getting your yokel on, unless you do it permanently like ed.

Dammit Abdul this is about big 'ole fast cars going around fast.Yeah they have to do the standard apologetics but geez boy howdy them swingin' dicks in the pits.
... The stars were suns, but so far away they were just little points of light ... The scale of the universe suddenly opened up to me. It was a kind of religious experience. There was a magnificence to it, a grandeur, a scale which has never left me. Never ever left me.

Dunno, I bet any NASCAR fan can recite any stat for any driver for the past 20 years. Including the dimensions of Danica Patrick's tits.
*Especially* the dimensions of Danica Patrick's tits.
