That's the big Outlaw dirt track event. It's a big deal.

No Dakar?

Interesting that Baja ranks so high considering the limited media coverage, and that Sebring is ahead of Nascar. I'm guessing they polled some people in FL and CA.

Isn't Dakar kaput courtesy of Religion of Peace terrorism threats?

Where do you live? Wow.

If it wasn't for dirt racing, I might not be here today. Big influence.

West coast... the dirt racing out here is desert trucks, Baja, motorcycles... not the roundy round. Honestly never heard of it. Yes on the other 9, but look how random that list is. Isle of Man and Chili Bowl on the same list?

The only things polls like this prove is that polls are worthless.

Nope, it has moved to South America several tears ago. Why they didn't rename it is curious though.
