If quality mattered to Nascar we'd still get to watch a Rockingham race
every year..
Nascar *should* be paying for the free advertising not vica versa.

Hope he wasn't wearing a $250 "Dale jr" or "Jeff Gordon" jacket when he
wrote it.... ;)

Shit, why don't Nascar just own the car stable, issue the car at the
beginning of the weekend, and then the teams can wrap them with their
sponser names and go race 43 identical pieces of whimped-out Nascar shit.
The whole thing has turned into one big IROC event every weekend. I HATE
it.
And the 5 min of racing per 7 min of commercials doesn't help matters
either.
At least F1 is interesting this year, for better or worse.
That doesn't mean I'm all of a sudden an RC freak. I'm not. I still prefer
Oval racing, just not what Nascar has become.

But back to the topic, what really burns my ass about EA's
Microsoft-like tactics is that a truly beautiful sim like the Gran
Turismo series can't have Ferraris, Porches (well, they have RUF's),
Lamborghinis, etc. What's the deal with that? Does EA have some sort of
exclusive license? GT4 owns anything EA could fantasize about on their
best day.
Larry enlightened us with:
Have you NOT heard of the revolutionary safer "NASCAR" Humpy wheeler was in
charge of developing? That is the plan!!! seems to been due soon too, cant
recall saw it on tv, like 08 or 10 or something...
Just think! No more trailers! They will have a "Nascar Pro Shop" where you
obtain your replacement brake pads.
And there will be a little stand called "Body By Jake" where the teams go to
have their sponsers shrink-wrapped on.
At the end of the race, you turn the car back in and if it's not damaged you
get your lease deposit back.
This is about the only thing they _haven't_ done.
I will say though, F1 is getting a lot worse.

SNip what I somewhat agree with, :/

you usually dont have to discuss it) Hehehee
