NASCAR isn't even NASCAR anymore. It's supposed to be STOCK CAR racing. It's more like the vigramass million dollar car racing association now and it's anyone's guess what cars these guys drive. Who wants NASCAR to be all People Mag-i-fied which is what will happen when the 'car hood ho' Danica joins.

I hope she does come to stock car racing and I hope she brings Vince McMahan with her. Nascar has gotten boring, cookie cutter cars, cookie cutter drivers, ancient technology. If you can watch a Daytona 500 without taking a nap you must be drunk. Lots of good racing on Speed however.
(Apologies in advance for the drunk remark.)
Jeff Gordon did redeem himself a bit when he drop kicked Matt Kenseth the other day, thats the way a Queen should act! Somebody needs to tell those boys to stop whining.

"People mag-i-fied". Good description of NASCAR President Brian France's vision of the future of his granddaddy's business.

Brian France is killing NASCAR. He's busy trying to create a skyscraper, but he seems oblivious to the fact that the foundation is crumbling into a sinkhole.

Not me but it's inevitable I think. It's all about money and TV ratings, big sponsors, etc. From a marketing standpoint Danica's centerfold appeal will be irresistable to the ad agencies. Sex sells. Today's NASCAR is nothing like it was 20 years ago. I still enjoy it but it's becoming a 'gentrified' sport and is abandoning its white lightnin' roots.
