F1 racing is over-rated. It's expensive to attend a race and as best I can tell from watching it on TV they don't allow passing except during pit stops.

Living here in Connecticut (the land of sucko weather) I have access to the Whelen Modifieds, the NHRA, the IRL and NASCAR. Given the choice I would attend any of their events before I would attend an F1 event. Next week the wife and I are off to Richmond to see an IRL race (plus others) - ticket price $35! How can you beat that? The following week they're at Watkins Glen. Both events offer garage access, life is good.
