Backslidden from NASCAR!


Holy tire smoke! This is how backslidden I am from NASCAR! I plumb forgot that today is the High Holy Day for the NASCAR faithful! The Bristol night race!

Bird saved me by texting me: "Race is On!"

I love my Bird! Green, green, green!

In honor of the day, here's an ER rerun.

OK, I am fixing to becoem a full NASCAR apostate. They have managed to eff up the single most exciting track in racing.

I can't believe it.

Track "improvement" have made the track easier to race and boring to watch.

NASCAR is led by idiots.

Money and respectability ruins everything.
 
Doesn't that picture kinda look like the charriot racing stadium from Ben Hur?

Apostacism only come with accute familiarity. Without the mystical it becomes mechanical.

Easier means safer does it not? I mean, what good are all those $millions if you can't live to spend them.
As for "respectability", that maybe a misuse of the word in this instance. :)
 
You know, at this track "easier" means "safer" mainly for the cars and the investment. I totally understand. But if cars can't even rattle and bump around THIS small track, I think the end is near -- at least for my interest in it. So, they're not idiots. I'm just not interested. Too many tracks already are just parades, where the cars *do* do what Teditor says: go 'round and 'round. I told Dr. ER we need to go to a local track soon to be reminded of what racin' really is.

And we think our race next year -- we've gone to a NASCAR every year, mostly since 2001 -- is liab;e to be a Bon Jovi concert!

Feh on NASCAR.
 
Try slot car racing.
 
My big brudder was way into slot cars! I hung with him some, but never got the bug.
 
Try slot cars and Mr. Dickle together.
