StArrow68 Champion Author Oakland Posts:3,257 Points:1,361,240 Joined:Apr 2003	Message Posted: May 24, 2012 1:57:16 AM Ignore StArrow68 Report Abuse If you ever thought of driving a race car, get yourself out on a road course. I've been on 6 tracks over the years and it is more than a blast, better with some professional instruction but still fun with volunteer coaching in a street car. Performance driving groups exist all over the country and run regularly. Key is being willing to listen.

Auto racing is a sport, and I love that sport. Cant stand basketball. Give each team a 100 points and play for 5 minutes. Baseball? Boring.

14smoke Champion Author Birmingham Posts:13,204 Points:1,924,165 Joined:May 2005	Message Posted: Feb 13, 2012 4:38:36 PM Ignore 14smoke Report Abuse Need to check your stats there buddy, the amount of fuel used in a full season of NASCAR does not equal the amount of gas this country uses in a day. Add in all forms of racing, all around the world, and it adds up to about 2 days worth of gas usage in this country, but not quite. Racing has done far more good in advancing technology of engines and tires than you likely ever will. Get over yourself and don't watch sports if you don't like them.

Timberline Champion Author West Virginia Posts:2,503 Points:763,415 Joined:May 2006	Message Posted: Jan 30, 2012 4:59:51 AM Ignore Timberline Report Abuse Totally agree. And the Corvette problems all seemed to be different. They have their work cut out for them and we'll have to see how it goes in the next round. It's still a good looking car, regardless.

Odd similarities with Jr going to win in National Guard car but ran out of in turn 4 of last lap and in Indy 500 that rookie in National Guard car is going to win but hits wall in turn 4 of last lap.
