Why watch NASCAR when you can just watch a bag of Skittles swirl down the toilet for the same effect?
lovemybikerboots
I like drifting it's pretty fun to watch and do
lovemybikerboots
Or motogp that's pretty fun too

Endurance racing for me

No... you aren't racist, you are correct.

Me too...
Shewy92
I like all forms of motorsport with 4 wheels. I hate people who are so one sided. It's all just driving in circles but that's fun to watch
Shewy92
Except rally and drag and others that don't do circuits.
SnookerSylph
Nascar is an excuse for people to gather in massive numbers and get Uber shit faced. It's like tailgating for a football game

I literally did an almost identical version months ago got ten points feelsgoodman :(

Mario kart is not racing. Mario kart is life. Double-dash to rule them all!
BlastTheStrongestHero
GTLM or GTFO.
TheAccountOfShame
LMP or LMG.
BlastTheStrongestHero
Both. LMP cars don't look very cool, but they're cool from an engineering and physics standpoint. LMG is more meaningful imo.

I personally like NASCAR! Especially live.
zooeyfooey
I became interested in it because there was so much hate. Learned that there's tracks that aren't oval (ex. The Glen), but... 1/2
zooeyfooey
2/2 the oval ones are the fastest and most pure. It's a lot about the pushing the limits of science and engineering. Oh, and f*ck ignorance
TanDumpLord
Amen! :-)

RE: NASCAR - It would be far more interesting if they went back to production cars and not aluminum foil-wrapped steel cages.

Those are games too. A game is anything played out according to specific rules, ones that limit your options to achieve the objective(s).
jmulderr
I think that's kinda the point. These all have rules that one abides by when things are going well. But when the poop hits the fan...

I'm a fan of how WRC cars have somthing in common with the cars that there based on. Not this Nascar bs that's a fiberglass shell with stkrs
TheDeckhand
If you think that wrc cars are not custom made bodies like NASCAR then you are mistaken
TheBalto
It's somewhat closer to rd cars. A few parts still limited to stock. NASCAR has almost nothing that's truly stock. Drop in the ocean though.
TheDeckhand
I get that but there's a reason NASCAR cup cars are so far from stock. I wouldn't want to be in a road car with a cage going 200+
TheDeckhand
I'd rather a purpose built shell to protect me
TheBalto
The shell/cage is not the part on WRC cars to be close to stock. Some internal parts are.
TheBalto
They might be not as safe due to smaller size, but definitely not a weaker shell.
DeadnCold
You ain't racing unless your brakes are on fire after the 3rd 90 degree corner on an old logging road doing 90mph 2' from 50 idiots yelling.

Sure: You're being lazy and it's not a real sport. Happy I could help.
SolarFlora
Wow that was cool. The amount of control he has is incredible. And I guess that with time it's only gotten faster. Thank you for this.
tehtaxidriver
Running is something children can do... rally requires YEARS of practice to get around turns quickly, and sideways without just wrecking
chbarts
Driving is something any moron can do.
StuBooloo
It's a serious physical activity. For example, F1 drivers have to tense their whole body on every turn to avoid blacking out.
DoorbyTheHouseShelf
As an American, Nascar is trash. I'm sorry, but going in circles 500 times just isn't fun to watch.
Saralynne
Oh man cars going dangerously fast taking left turns and possibly crashing who could ask for anything better?
PacificJesus
A big part of it has to do with the cars and track material themselves. Top gear has a really good episode where they talk about it.
thatpissedginger
Goto a race and at the events themselves their pretty fun
LincolnSiixEcho
I work for Nascar and although I don't care for it I really enjoy the events. So much fun and so much money
Buttholium
Most American Motorsport enthusiasts aren't into Nascar. It's more of a sport for people that don't actually have any interest in racing.

It Makes more sense when you're there in person
chefchris357
Let's be honest. Nobody watches NASCAR for a perfect race. People watch in hopes of seeing a horrible car accident at 200 mph.
thekbear
Ever been to a NASCAR event in person? It's a completely different atmosphere in person, and the sound enough it hypnotic.
jonestown
Left turn, Left turn, Left turn, Left turn, Left turn, Left turn, Left turn, Left turn, Left turn, Left turn, Left turn, Left turn

Fortunately for you there is no law requiring you to watch/attend Nascar and the ability to seek recreation you DO enjoy.

Smoothops
All fucking left turns
tinyninjateddy
You dont go to a NASCAR race for the cars. You go to get COMPLETELY SHITFACED and bank on seeing Crashes.
SecretGate
That's not the fun part. Beer is the fun part.
OkieTokieMagicCowPokie
That's 2,000 left turns by my calculations. Very hard. I mean left turns, all day, that is crazy!
GloriousGreenNinja
Do some research man it's not just left turns it's not easy getting cars going that fast around the track will defending
GloriousGreenNinja

DavidBrooker
The few road circuits they run every year are awesome. Two-abreast racing with questionable traction? Yes please.
DBSOempathy
NASCAR is just endurance and strategy. Like Le Mans only in a circle so they can do it once a week.
UvuvwevwevweOnyetenyevweUgwemubwemOsas
So you have no idea of F1. I advise you to go through mechanics of F1 and their drivers, you'll definitely change your opinion.
lobosrul
They've only done F1 at Le Mans once, a very long time ago.
jrhawk42
NASCAR has road courses but they're boring as hell. NASCAR is inherently driver vs driver & road courses are typically track vs car.
hertz60
No fan either I like right and left turns. But they don't go around 500 times, tracks are different, Daytona - 200 laps; Bristol ~938 laps.
imsurroundedbyassholes
Uhh bristol is actually 500 laps...
hertz60
you're right, sorry. Its called Food City 500, I figured 500 miles like Daytona and Indy and looked at the lap size.
imshibagel
It has a lot to do with drafting and requires a ton of risk taking strategy. However, I'd much prefer 50 laps over 200
GloriousGreenNinja
Check out dirt oval racing in that case :D
tacolandslide
As somebody who attends the indy 500 every year i agree that circle track racing can be dull but it's also very much about the atmosphere1/2
tacolandslide
and partying with the crowd. I also live within walking distance so I am a bit biased. 2/2
divatriformis
waste of money for sure
Tidusdc
THEY'RE MAKING A LEFT TURN!!! It's an easy sport to follow when you're hammered.
working30hoursADay
I'm much more interested in Formula 1, but NASCAR is a better spectators sport. You see the cars a lot more than in F1
UvuvwevwevweOnyetenyevweUgwemubwemOsas
F1 uses the most advanced technology and is interesting when one knows the race in and out. But from live audience pov, it sucks.
DrSparken
Mainly just because there's a lot more. With nearly the same average speed but lap distances half or less, the same car will pass more in F1
TysonGoesOutside
My problem with NASCAR is all the advertisements on every square in of everything
Hybris51129
Agreed all the cars being the same spec makes it boring as well. F1 has the same issue as well.
pukeface666
There's a strategy to it and it's probably fun to do but I can't watch it. F1 can be pretty good at times though.
traceurkyle
F1 is much more boring in my opinion its cooler because the cars are different but the race itself is awfully dull
bugeyetex
But, but.... motorcycle racing....
elbdms
F1 monaco track is a delight.
StuBooloo
*was good, until they switched to v6's.
UvuvwevwevweOnyetenyevweUgwemubwemOsas
Funfact- NASCAR drivers experience only 2G amount of lateral force, whereas the F1 driver experiences a minimum of 5G to 9G max (1)
UvuvwevwevweOnyetenyevweUgwemubwemOsas
and that too in varying direction. And F1 drivers lose 4kgs of body mass due excessive heat from the cockpit.
Shewy92
NASCAR drivers lose between 5-10 lbs as well.
DaDisser
Yea, go faster than everyone else.
pukeface666
Isn't that every race?
DaDisser
Yes. But not all of them are 500 laps.
Sexlexic
I've had the argument with fans before but out of all the pointless sports nascar has to be the tops as it waste so many resources.
IronicUsername
I'm sure it's a lot of fun to participate in and all but fuck is it boring to watch.
CaptainMiffles
bit like gold
CaptainMiffles
i meant golf... worst part is i'm on PC, no autocorrect, i'm just a twat.
jadespider
Nascar isn't a race, it's "race conditon management". When you refuel, caution lap restart rules.
UvuvwevwevweOnyetenyevweUgwemubwemOsas
So this "race condition management" doesn't exist in F1? Think about it.
GloriousGreenNinja
The pit crew who have to figure out how many laps you can make on a tank and how bad the tires are getting
GloriousGreenNinja
It's not as bad in f1 you have computers telling you what's wrong with the car or how much fuel you have in Nascar you have the driver and 1
UvuvwevwevweOnyetenyevweUgwemubwemOsas
The only race I find interesting after F1 is MotoGP, btw people have choices. Just like I find cricket boring, but it's watched by many.
GloriousGreenNinja
I know I'm not telling you that you have to like Nascar I'm just saying Nascar requires a bit more from the driver and machine
UvuvwevwevweOnyetenyevweUgwemubwemOsas
Because F1 cars are the most technologically advanced machines whereas NASCAR's a fast running horse.
UvuvwevwevweOnyetenyevweUgwemubwemOsas
The tech advancement in F1 is slowly increasing now, think about the races a decade ago when there was same excitement but lesser technology

I don't like nascar, but you can describe any sport like that. "Football is just watching guys chase a ball for a while and ending 0-0"

Yeah but your basically Garin teed to watch someone get clobbered

lol at the autocorrect. The crashes in nascar are pretty epic too though

That's a interesting spell check for Garunteed

You might want to turn left more than just sometimes in NASCAR or you're gonna have a bad time and give the crowd a show.
