Thread: NA$CAR races

Tweet

I certainly understand stock car racing, and the history of it. Wrecks are a "fact" of life if you want to play that game.

I did in fact watch the race and not just some highlites, didn't see anyone bang into anyone in the Edwards -- Keselowski incident. I did see Edwards try and block and then cut down into Keselowskis car getting turned and ending up in the fence. Man thats Stock Car Racing. Edwards made a simple and relativly small mistake, Keselowski just held his line like he should have. The wreck was the by product of two guys going to it in a race. It's supposed to

be that way.

Shame any fans got hurt. But the fans know the risk they take when they attend a race---- any race. If you want to be perfectly safe Stay Home.

Last time I checked life itself has some risk's, remove them all and it's going to be real dull real quick.

IC2,

If you remember the history of Nascar your post wasn't quite accurate.

Talladega was built the way it is and with its banking becuase Bill France wanted a track were they could run 220 MPH. The track itself was absolutly designed and built to be a + 200 mile race track.

As far as the drivers hating the Talladega, I don't know were that came from. If you listen to the drivers themselves during there interviews most of them say they love the track. but to a man they hate the "Restricter Plates" and what they do to racing. They slow the cars down and just about any racer would hate that.
