Of course, just like American fans I presume, I don't really like a number of things about NASCAR. That's the concept of some play-off (Chase) and the qualifying rules. I'm a purist, so I think the fastest cars should make the field, and the guy with the most points should be crowned as champion.The only thing that doesn't lie in racing is the stopwatch.

How I Got Into NASCAR....
2 ways.
1. I watched Talladega on Motors TV years ago in 2001 (iirc)
2. Thanks to the Champ Car World Series racing at Rockingham which has the then ASCAR series as sup port.
Then i fulfilled a dream and went to this Springs Busch and Cup race at Bristol.......boy am i glad i didn't choose the August race.

What I don't like is the champion's provisional causing teams to replace their origanal driver with past champion's so that they can make races such as Bill Elliott taking over the #21 and Terry Labonte running in the #55.I solumly swear I'm up to no good :devil:
