Talking to mechanics and pit crew members (if you have the opportunity) about how the car is set up, what transmissions are used, what testing is done, what the car is equipped with, etc. etc. really is interesting and actually quite amazing.
Anyways, I don't expect anyone to agree with me - and I really don't care. I know most people who are into Porsche's are not into Nascar. I know that. So I'm the odd ball, I love Nascar and that's that. And as for American car manufacturers - they suck no more or less than European manufacturers. It's all political how car companies operate and what restrictions are placed on them.
Anyways, just my opinion.

Not all the people who pay to watch NASCAR races are white trash, some of us are actually dumb hillbillys......

Paris has been really entertaining in the Simple Life.
Oh, the city is pretty too! I'de rather be skiing though. Chamonix, Val Thorens, Trois Valles,...
Nascar can be fun to watch. The tv coverage has come a long way. I watch it more than Le Mans. Did ya' notice that Audi is dominating Le Mans now? I like my TT Quattro Roadster better than the Boxster.
