THIS IS GREAT! I stopped watching NASCAR a few years ago but I'm still a Bill Elliott fan. It's nice to see him win rather than Gordon or Imtimidator, Jr. I knew the Dodge/Elliott team would eventually start kicking butt.
Has Mark Martin won since he started selling Viagra? HA?

Different kind of racing. If you want to go insanely fast and turn left, that's fine too.

Rally is what takes guts. 1.5m wide road at 150+kmh in a car that is about 1.6m wide, on the side of a 1/2 mile drop, thats where its at.

They were going into turn 1 anywhere from 198-204mph yesterday. With a concrete wall waiting to greet you if you screw up, I'd say that takes some balls. Schumacher wouldn't race Indy because of no run off area and the walls. Does that mean he's a real man because he makes right turns, but has no balls because he wouldn't run at Indy? I don't think so. Like Lemming said, just a different type of racing.
BTW, for anyone that forgot, Elliot still has the top speed record (before restrictor plates) at 232mph in a Winston Cup Car.

Well, I just don't want this to deteriorate into another "NASCAR sucks, ____ racing rules" kind of thing. Everybody has their own favorite kind of motorsport. Me, I don't like NASCAR (too boring IMHO), and I like F1 and CART.

And the crazy speeds that NASCAR guys do with big, heavy carbureted V8 cars...well, that takes some guts, and I've got to respect that.

F1 is boring these days, shoemaker has already won the championship. He almost always wins.

And they DO have a few road courses...people always seem to forget that when they are bashing NASCAR for driving only in circles.

cams...not to deter from your rally argument, but that's a LOT slower than other types of racing. I respect them too...just making it heard.

Hell even I knew about the road courses, as thats what we use ex-nascars on, road courses. But they arent road cars, brakes and power to grip isnt enough.

I personally like drag racing. 8 seconds of action and it's over. No room for error, and AMAZING SPEED! 300 MPH.

That's good, too. Nothing like going deaf when you see it in person, either...

Yeah I know its slower, but sideways on some of the worst roads in the world where you dont fully know whats up ahead, with a clif face on one side and a big ass drop on the other 150kmh is bloody fast. And I think almost everyone respects rally drivers. But lets hear it for the co-driver.

Personally, I like NASCAR, but you've got to go to a race to really experience it. When you can smell the rubber and racing gas, and feel the wind off the cars as they go into a turn, you'll get a rush of adrenaline, unless you're dead.
I also like drag racing. Sat and watched the NHRA boys last night too.
If Rally was telivised, I'd watch it too. I like watching them run Pike's Peak, but that's as close to Rally as I get on TV. When ESPN starts covering it, I'll be watching it.

Get speedvision or speed channel or whatever they're calling it now. Good rally coverage, lots of in car cameras.

#19, it's always on at weird times though. And I think rally drivers go plenty fast for the roads they have to work with, personally.
