nascars are shit
go fast, turn left, wow, its so fucking boring
if you want real touring car racing, aussie V8 supercars, they are the real shit, upwards of 300 kph (thats 190mile/hour) with racing on some tough circuits, including the gold coast indy circuit and the track I rate as one of the most challenging in the world, bathurst. unless you have seen this track in the flesh, you cant comment, it is so steep, fast and unforgiving. these guys race that track for 1000 kilometres, (thats 625 miles), which is an absolutely gruelling task. nascars go fast, and turn left. they are shit, there is no skill involved, its borinig, and they still manage to crash into each other.
the pinnacle would be a tie between world rally and formula 1. rally cause it is on changing circuits, blind corners, crazy shit etc. formula one because of the extreme speed and forces generated by it.
a modern formula one car can generate braking loads of up to 5g. thats 5 times the force of gravity for all you numbnuts who think g is a name for someone. f1 cars can get up to 360 kilometres per hour. thats well over 200 miles an hour. they can accelerate from 0-100mph and brake to 0 in less than 7 seconds. at full braking, they can generate enough force to suck tears out of the drivers eyes and onto the visors of their helmets. they race over 300 km and rarely go for more than a few seconds without having to brake or steer. hell of a lot more skill, fittness and endurance than some hick nascar driver, who can go fast, and turn left.
i hate oval racing, get on a real racetrack.
