One of the two NASCAR races I can bear watch every year.

But who am I to criticize NASCAR when my favorite form of racing stole hundreds of dollars from me.

At least Moto GP is on this weekend, those guys never disappoint.

Sadly, in my opinion, if you asked most NASCAR Team Owners, Crew Chiefs, and Drivers which races to eliminate from the current schedule, Watkins Glen & Sears Point would probably top the list. The rationale is that it costs a disproportionate amount of money to prepare a car & backup car for those tracks. After you've bitten that bullet, you hand the car off to a driver who really can't show the car to its best advantage because he just doesn't get that much wheel-time on a road-course.

After the fiasco last weekend I have a new found respect for NASCAR. They'd never let that happen.

2 weeks till Laguna Seca! I'm a big Rossi fan, but I'd love to see Edwards or Hayden win it.
