You're taking the easy way out.

Dying is much easier.

I've seen both.

Yes, those "idiots" being watched that make 7 and 8 figures to the left of the decimal and have tons of top shelf pussy available.

You and your friend pat each other on the back for being non-idiots....while you're clocking in down at Clem's Sawmill on Monday morning.

The night race at Bristol.

Short tracks have much better racing than super speedways.

Eh, not really at Bristol anymore. Not like it used to be. Still, night race is something else. I've never been to a night race.

Not much of a NASCAR fan but will go to turtle races for the experience.

I think there is a trinity of must-sees.

A superspeedway either Daytona or Talladega

A road course either Watkins Glen or Road America

A bullring which Bristol is hard to beat

NASCAR hands down has the best outdoor vendors you will ever find in one place at the same time. Imagine the best Walmart and multiply it times 100.

Something other than a NASCAR race.

I know its a cool experience.. When the cars come around, its loud, if you sit close enough you can feel the rubber from the tires hitting you.. but its the one "sport" where I can understand really only watching the end of.

Talladega


Is amazing. I understand people laughing about the thought of even attending a race. When I went to talladega I thought it was going to be the dumbest thing I've ever gone to. But I had a blast. It was basically like tailgating for a college football game for three days

We went to the qualifiers watching one car at a time and I was shocked at how cool that was. Then the actual race on Sunday was crazy. One of the coolest looking things I've ever seen is the restart after a caution at a Nascar race.

Just posting because I know most people think Nascar is dumb, I did too until I went to my first race. But I definitely changed my mind after that race.

All of this. I absolutely hate nascar, but went to the Pepsi 400 at Daytona in like 2007. It was for my buddy’s bachelor party. And honestly it was completely fricking amazing. I pretended to be a Jeff Gordon fan, and that made it all the more fun because people HATED that dude by then. It was legit awesome though and incredible how loud those cars are.
