Agreed! I was a fan of F1 years ago during the Senna and Prost days, but soon fell out with it. Same for NASCAR, it was fun back in the old days when they really (sort of) "Raced on Sunday, Sold on Monday", but no more. I now glance at the results on Monday and watch a half of a race a year.

I did do 18 laps at Lowe's Motor Speedway about 4 years ago in the the Richard Petty Experience. It was a blast! After I drove my laps, I did the 3 lap ride-along to see what a 170+mph lap feels like. A big difference from my 140+ laps. Those guys doing it on Sunday, two and three wide, nose to tail, at 200mph do have both talent and guts, whether you like that kind of racing or not.

Ah well... back to Boxsters!
