Maurice,
Same here. I much prefer road racing and loved the old Trans Am series. If I were younger I would go to Richard Petty's Driving School just to see what it is like to go around one of those oval tracks at high speed. All of the racing I have ever did was on road courses, so I don't have any idea what it would be like to drive one of those cars around an oval. But I can guess at the loss of breath and momentary blackout when they hit the wall even with the new safer barriers which I think is a great thing.
