I can think of nothing better than watching cars drive in a circle for 1100 miles except for paint drying.

Sorry I need to go and wallpaper the fence.

Wireless speakers? Of course Sir. Choose the colour and size you like. As you don't seem to think sound quality is important, I will not plug them in. |

Yeah, a bunch of right turns sounds so entertaining.... And you say soccer is boring. This is a whole new level of boring.

I think most people watch for the crashes.

F1 was awesome, that race is on my bucket list. I want to be standing in the tunnel when they scream thru it. Although the note has changed since they went to the electric assist, Hybrid F1 Really!
Indy was a great finish. Kurt Busch had a decent finish for his first Indy.
Go JR. Have to wait on that one!
NHRA up next!
All we needed was a Rolex race and maybe some Aussi Super V8's, or maybe some mud bog racing through the sippy hole

I had ZERO desire for NHRA. Attended an investors group (penny stock scam, still in the courts) at an NHRA function. WHOLLY FREAKING BAJEEMA's! WOW, I was blown away. And I thought some of the high end theaters had some bass and boom boom. There is NOTHING else like standing beside the lane. It really needs to be on every ones bucket list. Yes, that impressive. Crazy cool.
NASCAR is more than just waiting for crashes, its knowing the drivers, their personalities and how they drive. Yes, boring to those that done follow it. I get that. Same boat for me on ALL other racing, the bore me death as I don't follow it. I enjoy NASCAR because I get it. Toothless tank top attendees aside.

For those that all they see is cars going in a circle im sorry.
I know what it takes to put those cars out there (part of a pit crew).
I see the chassis and power train, I see what the car is actually doing buy watching the line, body roll, lift, drop. I see the brake rotors glowing through the wheels.
It takes a lot to put those cars out thee and hope it dosent come unglued.
If you have never stood next to the fence when 43 cars with open headers are coming at you, its an experience to behold.
You see how on the edge they are 100% of the time.
The same with NHRA, its amazing to see and feel two V8 engines actually change the atmosphere around you as they pass buy. It actually vibrates your bodies inner core.
And if you don't say the first time you ever saw live top fuel launch it didn't scare the shit out of you, your a liar.
