Default NASCAR finish - wow, this is real racing *Youtube alert*

I was having a chat with JJ about Nascar after hearing that Montoya had gone over.

Did a little googling and then found this

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m3-hJFTZe08

Wow, talk about wheel to wheel. Its like BTCC on steroids (without the twisties to be fair).

I might have to get sky at this rate!!!

Apologies for another youtube link.

cool clip

had to laugh the car slides across the finish line on its roof in flames, the car then rolls onto it wheels, the driver then calmly climbs out of the burning car, stands there just taking his gloves of and putting them in the car as if nothing had happend. you would think that the race was meant to finish like that the way he was acting.

I thought it was a great clip hence the post - thanks for agreeing.

I have found a torrent for the whole race and will hopefully put my feet up over the weekend and sit through the whole race.

I love my F1... but the madness of this racing was just great!!!

I have never sat through a whole one (dont have sky) but i can see the boredom issue creeping in from watching an oval.

But when i watched that clip of the first race of the season i couldn't believe it....

When he goes "loose" at what must have been 150-200mph shite!!! Fook that for a game of cards.
