What type of racing do you enjoy?
I used to not be able to get enough of Indy cars. Went to the Indt 500 a couple of times. Now I have got a lot of intrest in theWinston cup series.

BoCo · 04-27-2003, 12:31 PM

Formula 1 is the only racing worth watching, with the exception of the 24 Hours of LeMans.

zipper · 04-27-2003, 12:32 PM

NASCAR...

NASCAR is excellent....I don't watch for the wrecks, I watch because I admire the level of sportsmanship, athleticism, and strategy involved in this series.

Ha! F1?! If you like a 2 hour long pace lap...

Superbike and Drag racing.

racermike · 04-27-2003, 03:46 PM

If it races, I like it. Racing is in the eye of the beholder; whatever you like is o.k., just don't talk smack about what you don't understand. Educate yourself before you call a different form of racing "junk" or "crap".

0001 · 04-27-2003, 04:52 PM

No love for WRC?

I can't think of anything more entertaining than WRC\Dakar personally. Who the fuck wants to sit and watch people make left turns all day?

Craven Morehead · 04-27-2003, 04:52 PM

F1
CART
ALMS

laconic1 · 04-27-2003, 07:09 PM

If it has an engine and wheels I'll watch it. NASCAR used to be my favorite, but now I'll watch Formula 1, IRL, ASA, World of Outlaws, Rally, Off Road trucks, Drag Racing, Pretty much anything out there. Although I'd have to say F-1, World of Outlaws, and NHRA Top Fuel are my favorites. During the summer I live at the racetrack on Saturday night.

pilot123 · 04-27-2003, 07:33 PM

rally racing of any kind is awesome as well as superbike racing, both of the guys who drive in that shit are fuckin crazy. The rally guys go around mountain roads at ungodly speeds with like 500 foot clifs off of one side and 500 foot tall rockwall on the other side. Superbike guys are just plain nuts, that is to fast to be able to turn like they do. I dont really like any kind of "circle" track racing, but if those series are on road courses ill watch that. Also the 24 hour type races are pretty good but not for the full 24 hours. If you have a car that is decent, and you can drive almost anything, go and race an SCCA autocross race. You weave around cones in a parking lot at a high rate of speed. Its a blast.

X_cody_X · 04-27-2003, 07:54 PM

Mostly WRC, MX, and Trans-Am racing. I'll enjoy anything going fast to a certain extent.

strife · 04-27-2003, 08:13 PM

Two-wheeled Tuesdays on the Speed Channel BABY!!!!

. I love it. I like any kind of racing, not so much a fan of sprints and outlaws though.

F1
MX
SX
FMX (not exactly racing, but oh well)
Kart
WRC
Super Australian V8
Superbikes
Moto GP
24 Hour Lemans

I think that I like GT racing the best, or maybe it's GT2, I don't remember the difference between the two.
Yeah, anything that races. I like it.

oane · 04-27-2003, 10:02 PM

MotoGP!
WRC!!
F1!!!
WSBK. And almost all other formz of motosportz! Even Karting haha.

impirius7 · 04-27-2003, 11:28 PM

WRC, MotoGP, F1 is where it is at.

True story: Every sunday between 1PM and 4PM EST, you can find my dad passed out on his couch asleep with NASCAR on the TV. I asked why he sleeps during the race and he said it's just so boring, he falls asleep about 10 laps in, wakes up when the announcers make a lot of noise, and wakes up with about 10 laps to go. Every sunday. I guess he should try to find something else to watch.

acpower · 04-27-2003, 11:59 PM

rally, lemans, and touring car

Spyder_Venom · 04-28-2003, 08:12 AM

Unless I am watching short track I don't go for the circle jerking

Formula 1
Cart
SCCA
WRC

IC3 · 04-28-2003, 08:52 AM

Nascar
Rally Racing
British Touring Racing

I always hear everybody put Nascar down because they race in a circle for 2 or 3 hundred laps...How hard is that they say.

I would say it is probably some of the closest racing you will ever watch...Why?

Cause every car that races in Nascar has the engines Restricted making every car as close as possible when it comes to speed...So that means there is always large groups of cars racing inchs from eachother...Making it pretty intense.

That fender to fender, bumper to bumper racing is what gets my heart jumping.

146519 · 04-30-2003, 05:51 PM

The best is real-life racing from the bacon.

MSD · 04-30-2003, 06:28 PM

Rally, Drag, Le Mans, Touring. Circle track gets too repetetive for me.

Knoweffects · 05-02-2003, 01:02 AM

WRC all the way

mturner333 · 05-02-2003, 10:13 AM

DerBlitzkrieger · 05-04-2003, 03:48 PM

Liquor Dealer · 05-04-2003, 04:31 PM

reconmike · 05-04-2003, 07:39 PM

Races. dog,horse, go karts, 2 old women chasing the blue light special, I dont care as long as someone is racing

BooRadley · 05-09-2003, 12:01 AM

Any type of racing that involves a timer of some sort. Except boat racing. That is lame and is nothing more than a crashfest.

If I had it my way, there would be a billy bad ass bike racing league in which points were awarded for doing wheelies past competitors and flipping people off would be a commonplace occurance.
