A redneck race car driver has a disease caused by smoking too much tobakky?

NO WAY!

So is the nationwide tour like the minor leagues of NASCAR?  Because I'm in TN and there's a race tomorrow in Nashville and I'm thinking about going.  I hate NASCAR but I just want to experience being with 1000s of drunken rednecks in 100 degree heat.  The names look like the same guys who run in the big races.

Do you get in free?

Look at it like a zoo for (sub)humans and have a good time...if nothing else the roar of all those engines is awesome I'm sure.

Try not to let your mouth run though, they'll know you're an educated northerner right away, and they don't like book readers and the like.

ive been to an AMA race which is 6 cyl stock cars which still are fast as hell, and loud as hell.  Its a good experience, but your exhausted by the end of the day from drinking on the metal bleachers

I thought that NASCRAP's "minor league" was the Busch Series.....thus the term "that's busch league."  Of course, with the way corporate sponsors turnover these days, I wouldn't be surprised if that's the case. 

I have no interest in the sport at all but I would like to go to a race one of these days.  Any day that features drunk naked chicks galore and fast cars can't be that bad.  There's no possible way it can be as bad or worse in person than on tv.

Nationwide replaced Busch as the sponsor this year.  yeah, it's the "minor leagues" where the cars aren't as powerful and they run less laps, but they can't find enough teams to fill the field so half the drivers are the Sprint Cup regulars getting extra practice for Sunday...

That's Nationwide league.   Hmmmm, just doesn't roll of the tongue quite as well.

Zero hour, Michael. It's the end of the line. I'm the firstborn. I'm sick of playing second fiddle. I'm always third in line for everything. I'm tired of finishing fourth. Being the fifth wheel. There are six things I'm mad about, and I'm taking over.

NASCAR is trying to get away from the beer and tobbacco, thats why it's the Sprint Cup and not the Winston Cup, and why they did away with Bush beer.

Good farging luck. If they ever banned beer from the track they'd burn it down.

I read today that it's only a matter of time until Pocono is retired.  The drivers hate it or some shtein.

Since when does "the talent" get a say?  I thought the idea was to fleece the lowest of the American low?

you guys really need to stop validating this pseudo sport with your attention
