and at Indy they put on their "show" for 400K plus fans.
That's with 3400 lb cars with tires way to narrow and brakes way to small and yet somehow they manage to get these cars around some speedways in excess of 200mph.

F1 what a joke.

Yesterdays Nascar Nextel Cup winner at Michigan, Greg Biffle, started 25th. With Ford power that most of us have in our Cobras.

Where can I get one of those milk truck engines?

Cranky
OK not to go off on a rant here but

1 F1 cars accelerate (takes Nascar laps to build up speed)

2 Nascar sure 200 mph on an OVAL Look at their road track records and they are dismal

3 Nascar may be able to "put on a show" but they don't have much to do with Racing anymore they are a wonderful example of vertical intergrated marketing but not RACING

4 Carborator or carbon fiber I will still go Carbon on this

5 what happened is a shame because they just shot themselves like CART did the NASCRAP guys are going to be ranting on this for years.

(anyone remember a few years ago when the "Stock" cars had issues with their tires when they FORCED the teams to use Radials? )
