Most racing sports do not adjust for the driver's weight. For example, Robbie Gordon would never be considered for Formula One for two reasons. #1 He's not good enough. #2 He is about 50 pounds too heavy. If he doesn't like it he can diet.
What is NASCAR to do? What if a 300 lb. guy wants to drive, do all other cars have to carry an extra 100+ lbs. of ballast?

BWAA HA HA! Sure, sure...And instead of being sponsored by Marlboro, they could get San Francisco rainbow crybaby sponsorships for all the whining that they did to make it "fair" for the 300 pounder!

Why hasn't Robby been complaining about Jeff Gordon for the last 13 years? Jeff's stats say he weights a good 50 pounds lighter than Robby. I guess that explains why he's won a few championships - the driving has nothing to do with it!
