Just thinking out loud here, but you’ve got at least three problems with car racing as related to environmental health: gas usage in the races themselves, the use of leaded gasoline, and the hundreds of thousands of cars that drive to the races.

Doing a full calculation of the environmental cost of NASCAR (number of cars per race, number of miles per race, number of miles per practice run, number of races per week, number per season, number of fans driving to the races, number of beer cans thrown out the window) is beyond me.

You just keep track of those statistics and we’ll check in with you later on.

I take it that you failed to notice that the ethanol bloc is a huge sponsor of Sprint Cup.

Tune in next week and check out the advertisement on each and every "gas cap".
