I lost total interest in NASCAR about four years ago. Way over priced, forced multi ticket purchases, traffic to and from, etc.
It became to much "TV" with the drivers and their "look". The cars are ALL almost identical with only stickers seperating Ford, Chevy, Dodge, Toyota, etc......and as far as engines, is there not only two engine builders?
So we watch one or two body molds with stickers indicating manufactor, being powered by one or two engine builders, and being driven by drivers who are told what hair cut and facial hair to have.
Then you have the WWF pro wrestling aspect of the sport with mystery cautions?, prearranged who wins the poles? , how penalties on drivers are handled........I'm not sure the race winners are totally prearranged like Wrazzling ........lol, but I believe the pieces are set in place!
I still do have a interest in the smaller tracks in the Daytona area ( Barberville and NSB) which to me are still real racing....not "TV reality show" racing!
