Dude your soo out of it if you think all NASCAR is people wrecking. Usually the only crashes are caused by flat tires.

38 wrecks....only 4 (that I could tell based on description) were caused by tire failure. So yeah...about 10% of all crashes are caused by flats.....

But you proved my point in this thread. NASCAR has less to do with precision and more to do with knowing which part of your car can be used to put another driver out of commission and still allowing yourself the opportunity to finish the race.

If smash-em-up racing is your cup of tea, then yes...NASCAR wins every time....sometimes I watch nascar as well, primarily for the wrecks.

And your point? It has been said many times that F1's biggest fault is there's to many secrets. Everything is secret mods this and secret mods that. It's pretty much a engineer's wet dream but is BORING if your watching it at home.

I never meant to make this a nascar vs. F1 argument either but you just made some dumb points about nascar and F1 uber precision driving....:icon_scratch:

Dude your soo out of it if you think all NASCAR is people wrecking. Usually the only crashes are caused by flat tires. Hey man if you like watching follow the leader for a couple hours though thats cool with me. You know a NASCAR driver by the name of jeff gordon drove one of those cars once, and the very first time he got in the car is was very close to the pole qualifying time of the last race. Nascar drivers must just be hicks who play demolition derby.

And if precision gets you excited you have other problems. Like i said those guys are all good drivers but not very fun to watch. And thats kinda the point of it being on tv. Watching.

Ok this is so beyond wrong. for one F1 is boring as shit compared to nascar. I'm all for watching different motorsports but serious, go drive a huge hunk of shit around a track at 190mph for hours with 40 other guys around you bumping into you. Yeah there fucking doing nothing in the cars but sipping on there caramel macchiatos. :icon_scratch:

In F1 it's "oh no i was 3.12843 mm to far in and my trajectory was a bit off so i rubbed your carbon infused honeycomb winglit yadda yadda" and your out the race.

F1 has a MUCH broader following worldwide than NASCAR....and more excitable fans. It's really too bad that Americans have such a short attention span otherwise I'm positive that F1 would be followed more closely here, but it seems like we (as a nation) can't follow a race that involves left AND right hand turns without getting confused about who is leading and what is going on. There is so much more strategy/technology in F1 than NASCAR that its not even funny. You can't just rub and bash your way to the front and hope that your car holds up. It takes far more finesse and skill to race at ridiculously high speeds with cars that are engineered to properly race rather than compete in a high speed demolition derby.

F1>NASCAR all day, every day....especially Sundays

Nascar is not something i watch and am very into but it's a hell of alot better then the 25 lap races, i mean time trails that is F1.

i love watching aussi supercars, gt racing, etc... on speed but where is the rally and other sports. For christ sake thay had lawnmower racing on the other day and not wrc?????

Yea being cars driving around a track following each other is exciting to watch. Would be fun to drive, not so fun to watch. Rally yea it would be cool to do, and those guys are crazy, probably pretty fun to see in person but on tv no. At least there is actual racing in nascar.

You're not seriously suggesting that NASCAR is more exciting than rally? How about the Australian V8 Supercars, those guys hit the rumble strips so hard half the car gets airborne. F1 has lost a lot of excitement with the current rules but is still much more entertaining than NASCAR.

Lol... should be the White Trash Motorsports network...

golf is just hitting a ball, basketball is just shooting hoops, hockey is just skating back and fourth, drag racing is just driving in a straight line. People bitch about everything they dont like.

Well they wont make a channel for programs people dont watch. Rally, f1 and stuff are not very entertaining.
