NASCAR has moved to far to the left, IMHO. Boring to watch the 'car of tomorrow' run in circles lap after lap. NASCAR needs more road circuits and cars that actually look different. Yes on weight limits and engine size, common safety requirements and a few other mechanical things...the balance should be how creative each manufacturer can get.
I love F1 but it has become far too expensive for many to build a team.
I'd love to see an NHRA funny car event where each car doesn't have a huge wing covering the back half of the car. Let's see just how quick and stable someone can build a car without making it look like something that it isn't. The '1000 ft rule hasn't changed the speeds any...those cars are still pulling 300mph in the lights.
