NASCAR is one of the most misunderstood race series of all of them.

 

Using cars with the profiles of the main makes an their engine blocks they are tuned to run at similar speeds to F1 cars and run the length of three F1 Grand Prix in one go.

 

The crowds at some of races are four times bigger than F1 crowds.

 

The race series is twice as long as F1 and good drivers like Montoya have struggled to master NASCAR like Jimmy Johnson has.

 

You can have a go in a NASCAR spec car at Rockingham in Northants and it is a total hoot, makes all the other supercars feel pedestrian.

I like it and the last two rounds of the Nationwide series have been on road courses. Fast and uncomplicated cars.

you will be dizzy after all those round and round laps, reminds me of ploughing when I used work on the farm lol.

 

One thing that has come from Nascar is Lucas oil's Slick Mist, it is a great detailer and works on all parts of your car, it was developed to put on the windscreen of the nascar so as the big bugs hit the screen and slide off instead of splatting and obscuring the drivers view.

 

 I have to agree with the statement above though, these cars are fast and they have to deal with a long thrashing on the top end of the rev range and when something or someones car does let go it is usually with very spectacular crash!

I like NASCAR, when they are on the big banked circuits.

I was invited to the Daytona this year by an American (What a spectacle!) but put the family first and had to give it a miss.

Infineon and Watkins Glen are conventional circuits and a very different setup to the other 30 odd banked aiit-clockwise circuits.

 

Talledega is my favourite.  200 mph slipstreaming, wow.

 

 

gotta love those yank news readers!!

Call 1-800-BE-PETTY, and if you don't understand that, you don't understand NASCAR!
