Well I don't understand it but that's because I am not a gearhead at all. But I am trying to understand his reasoning for looking down on NASCAR fans, however ridiculous it may be.

I think Europeans look at F1 as gentleman's racing, while Nascar is more blue collar. While that maybe somewhat true, a typical american racing fan, with a little knowledge of race cars should have no trouble figuring out the concepts of massive downforce, KERS, and other things that are somewhat unique to F1.
