Re: NASCAR thread
....just a side note: NASCAR is way better on TV. I went to this last race at California Speedway and it was so-so. I don't think that I would ever do it live again. My *** is still sore from the stupid bench. It was way too long and no matter where you sit you can't see the whole race. It would have been cool for 100 laps but not 250. It was supposed to be near 70 so I wore shorts and a T-shirt and it ended up being 54 with a cool wind. I was a little cold and uncomfortable. We also rode the train in which took forever and was not worth the convenience. Some of you may not get what I'm trying to say....in LA you can pay $25 and hop on a train that takes you right to the speedway. The $25 is worth it just in the price of gas and you could concievably drink all day long. However, it took so long to get home that I wish that i had driven. Anyway, there were some very good things at the race too. The concessions were great- good food! The sponsors also had some pretty cool displays.

i been to tona,alt,darlington and the glen. the glen is the most fun by far the camping is like woodstock with race fuel in the air lol. neat little town with tons of racing heritage. even indy racing is great there and a lot less of a circus compared to nascar. they need to bring back f1 to ny//

Re: NASCAR thread
Also, when you go to a race, I would suggest getting a scanner. I think they are usually about $50 for the weekend if I'm not mistaken. At least that is what they used to be. It's awesome when you can hear what the driver and crew cheif are talking about. And here it word for word in real time.

Re: NASCAR thread
Bleh...NASCAR the....monotonous new "sport" sweeping the nation...
I could care less how fast the cars go or how much endurance it takes to sit on your a$$ that long - its watching 5,000,000 mind-numbing laps! There is no point! |

Also, how would you hold up to riding in a car for 3-4 hours while the temperature inside can reach sometimes 130 -140 degrees in the car. Plus have to wear all the fire suits and everything besides. I bet you couldn't do it. I know I wouldn't be able to.

The Bristol night race in August is da bomb!!
Wish I could be there in person! Walking along the fence at Daytona when they are running is pretty cool also. |

Re: NASCAR thread
I was at Charlotte for the first night race in 92 I think it was.
The Winston "One Hot Night" as they advertised it. The one where Davey crashed at the end and barely beat Kyle Petty. I was seated low at the end of turn 2. |
Re: NASCAR thread
WHEN YOU LEAVE BRISTOL IT WILL BE HARD TO NOT YELL TO TALK. :23:
If you don't carry hearing protection, you will regret it. Especially in the infield. :smack: |
Re: NASCAR thread
Michigan is another track that is good to watch live. If you are up in about the 20th row in any section you can see the whole track. The only trouble with Michigan is that it is a pain in the A$$ to get out of there. When we go there we just cook out and wait several hours before leaving after the race.

Re: NASCAR thread
Montoya was more at fault but his teammate did move down though. So in my opinion, it wasn't entirly his fault. Just mostly his fault. A little impatient.
|
Re: NASCAR thread
In every circuit that Montoya has been in he has had a reputation of being an island to himself, someone that does not understand or care to be part of a team. Today proved it to me in Nascar. I thought it was a very agressive move to make on a TEAMMATE at that point of the race.
