Nascar Fans
 

Any of you Nascar fans interested in joining a Nascar Fantasy League on Yahoo? If so, PM me your e-mail address and I'll send you an invite. I've got a few folks from work in it already, but it will be more fun with more folks.

considering rubber is a petroleum product and each car wastes several sets of tires per race and factoring fuel for race cars, semi's fuel to haul race cars, fuel for all support crew of one race car wouldn't it be the "green" option to do away with Nascar?:whistle:

Thems fighting words Harold:diablo:

oh I'm just goofin' around:yes::lol:

NO, NASCAR put downs are for people who just do not understand what racing is really all about. You can only wish that you could drive LEFT around a Superspeedway at 200+ mph without losing control and hitting the wall. Keeping track of the mechanics of the cars, pit crew statistics, driver health, ownership, team make up, points standings, track condition, squabbles, and so many other things that are going on behind the scenes that really make or break a championship year. I am sure that you feel just as passionate about your dressup runway shows, but we do not judge.

Dam you seem to take everything so personal . It's a joke :smile:. Besides all forms of racing do the stuff you mentioned not just nascar . Also it's LINC & HAROLD that like the dress up runway shows not me :na:.

Count me in! I used to do the ESPN one, then everyone I knew on it dropped off.
Being in the fantasy league did something really good for me - I had been a Sr. fan, and was struggling trying to find a reason to watch again. then I got in the league, and it really helped me to become a fan again.

Harold - you cant even drive STRAIGHT, so shhhuuuddddd up!

Pm sent!

With out you Harold these pages would not be the same:yes:

In all seriousness I'd give my left nut for a shot at taking a Nascar level stock car out on a circle track. I get it. It's just not for me. MX or superbike racing I'll watch all day long. NHRA too. To each their own.

Harold i agree :smile:.

Yeah, uh huh, we know the kind of "drag" racing you like to watch.

touche!

Couple years back my inlaws bought me one of those day long training events at a small track in Spokane. They were "only" 450hp cars, and it was only a short half mile track, but damn, it was tough just for the several 25 lap runs we did. You do the work stearing on the straights - almost have to turn it towards the wall to get it to go straight, then its a coast/partial throttle through the turn and it almost turn on its own. By the afternoon 50 lap run, it was about 90 degrees out, and by lap 40, I was beat. Finished up there, went back to the trailer, showered, then ran over to the drag strip and ran my truck in the diesel drags. Ran a best of 13.10- but I broke out on that run, and put the final nail in the stock tranny on that run too...but it held together just enough for me to pull my trailer back home the next day.

Not at all sir.
 

Not at all you hippie:lol:. Just throwing stones back in the direction they came from. Now who's taking things personal???:na: BUT yes I am passionate about NASCAR. It sort of keeps me grounded being overseas so much and missing out on everything in the USA.

NASCAR sucks :na::na:!!!! All they do is run in circles except for the 2 road courses they have.

I used to watch NASCAR a lot when I was still stateside but not anymore since it would be early Monday morning here instead of Sunday afternoon. I'm just glad we have the dayoff this coming Monday for the superbowl.

Cool sometimes it's hard to tell how people take stuff :lol:. Nascar still blows or is that harold that blows ?.:gasp:

I quit watching nascar when the car of tomorrow (today?) came out, I just don't agree with it anymore. I see no progression in a sport that is stuck on 70's tech, I know safety is state of the art, I'm talking carbs and MSD ignitions. And the bodies, It's the same body and essentially the same motor. Its all a spec class anymore, I'll stick with rc.

Actually, that's exactly why I still like it. F.I. is great, but then with that comes computer controls, and then before you know it you have F1. I like keeping the tech in the garage, not with the programmers.

Agree
 

I have to agree with you on that one. I like the fact that in NASCAR it is the driver out there all by him/herself doing the driving. NO computer teams tweaking as they drive. WIth teh car of today it is all evened up and the driver has to out smart the rest of his competitors. Raw racing skills rule.
