NASCAR in NY. First the Republican convention, and now this.

Actually, NY allready has a track that NASCAR races at. It's called Watkins Glen. One of a few REAL race tracks that NASCAR visits.

I've been to exactly one NASCAR race in my life, in Phoenix. Brush aside the stereotypes, and I don't see the big issue. Racing draws fans from all walks of life. I saw little-old grannies wearing the T-shirts for their "boy"! Kinda nice to see the elderly and children safe in those crowds.

But if you're going to be a dedicated follower, you're going to need the disposable income for the RVs, 5th wheels, motel rooms, airfare, headphones, etc. Outside the Phoenix track it looked like a giant rock concert encampment. (But law-abiding!) Hope the Staten Island facility has a LOT of parking!
