Well it took 7 laps to get rid of half the field......

Restrictor plate racing sucks

Do people really watch this???????

My bro in law loves it..........on a few occasions during his visit, he asked if he could watch the race....and I obliged.

To be honest, it is a lot more entertaining when you have a fan there to explain how everything works.

That being said, I never watch it.

I saw Matt Kenseth Flip about 12 times yesterday . . .

I always bet they will turn left and have been winning quite a bit of $

Great finish. What a race!

Montreal, Sonoma and Watkins Glen are Road Courses . . .

Nascar is a great way to disable a redneck for three or four hours. Kind of like shiny keys fixate a 9 month old.

Nascar has tracks in Montreal Canada, Fontana California, Madison Illinois, Watkins Glen New York, Chicago Illinois, Dover Delaware, Miami Florida, Des Moines Iowa, Indianapolis Indiana, Kansas City Missouri, Brooklyn Michigan, Milwaukee Wisconsin, Loudon New Hampshire, Phoenix Arizona, Philadelphia Pennsylvannia and Sonoma California . . .

I doubt residents of those states would appreciate you calling them rednecks . . .

What about "tea bagging rednecks" that's politically correct.

Jet,

Rednecks can live anywhere.

If going to Nascar races is what they want to do with their money, they can have at it. I watched it up until I was about 20 (I was certainly a full blown redneck then).

And now with restricter plate racing, and knowing the "best drivers in the world" can't drive when it rains, it pretty much lost all intrigue for me.

I also realize that not everybody that watches it is a redneck. But for every Brian Williams that enjoys the sport, there are ten fans shaving their favorite driver's number in their backhair, getting drunk beyond reason and collecting financial assistance from government.

Just not my cup of tea.

I guess this sport isn't for everyone. Nascar is the 2nd most watched sport in attendance and tv, so there are a whole lot of people who disagree with your opinions.

I must say however, I can't imagine anyone who can get excited about watching an NFL Draftday televised for 5 hours, with everyone arguing about a bunch of stats on pigheaded snot-nosed college kids, about to become drug-induced, prostitute supporting, wife-beating millionares who blow their brains out on cocaine and alcohol, then complain about it not being fair that they aren't getting the ball enough, or look like fools celebrating each tackle because that's what they get paid to do.

Or is that stereotyping? 😉

(nice post)

Nascar car fans love cigars....well a lot of them do anyway.

Re: # 15 . . .

Just "another" reason I don't like pro sports . . .
