Nascar
Off to America 1st Sep to visit the girlfriends dad, he's out there working for Penske involved with the Nascar racing. He's hoping to be able to take us to the factory and possibly a race!
Dont no a lot about Nascar so was wondering if anybody could explain a bit about it?

Go to www.NASCAR.com and start reading!!!Also loads of NASCAR clips on You tube.If you're an interest you'll get the basic's fairly quickly,if you think its all about turning left and boring then you're wasting youre time.Regards,Micky.

Would love to be close to the fence when they are three wide trading paint at near 200
Big stand at Daytona seats 125K

i think they still show it on channel5 late at night...
the tactics in the race are to stay on the lead lap until about 20 laps to go, then the race starts properly. alot depends on the style of track aswell, the super speedways are alot more tactical than say the 1/2mile ovals which are more frantic and rougher...

hmm, lets see.
nascrap:
mullets
smoking
v8 cars that resemble nothing that you can buy from a dealer anymore
bunch of whiny bitches about track temperatures
alot of turning left
some more whining about something
beer
obnoxious rednecks
more beer
more smoking
oh yeah and some more whining.
if you've never been before you will actually probably enjoy it.
