Road Courses
P.S. I have to at least have some passing familiarity of NASCAR... to pacify certain people who assist me by handing me tools, etc. |

If they ditch the road courses then there will be no way in hell I will watch NASCAR. I don't watch it anyway but the whole "can only make left turns" is so true. There have been many IRL and F1 racers who have tried the NASCAR thing and have fared well because its easy. They might not win but they give a good showing.
I think they need to put on more Le Mans races with REAL Sports Cars, not American sedans that are moded out the ASS. I loved watching 12 hours of Sebring. I could have went but I didn't know until that day that it was going on. The American Le Mans Series is by far the best racing because there are so many different classes that race and it's really anybody's game. I would say that it's a little hard to follow if you are not educated about the racing and class and how a race works and yes it might not have that "edge-of-you-seat" feeling like some F1/CART/IRL/NASCAR races have when it comes down to the end. I would like to see a Stock Car race for 12 or 24 hours straight and switch drivers ever so often just so they know how real racing is like. Granted there are many different types of racing and Enduro is the toughest of them all since everyone's game has to be on that day, but short lap (200-300 laps) races with Le Mans racers would be a blast to watch and I'd be glued to the boob-tube |
