On my way back from my honeymoon last year we were stuck in the section of the plane of 20 Nascar fans coming to Phoenix for a race. Boy are these guys motor heads and hard care OEM diehards. I use to watch Nascar when I was a kid but left when it became more glamour.Nascar wasn't as huge as it is now. What I learned from that trip was that they all had true friendship and were from all walks of life. All connected via the internet and web forums.Originally posted by NC_VX
.. Holy Crap, I actually watched the NASCAR race (last 45 laps) over last weekend too....
The most memorable event when I was younger was during the last race of the year where Dale Earnhardt was a lap down and he put the hammer down. Through each turn he was smoking those tires at speed and on the mic you can hear them telling the lead driver that he was catching up. The laps were winding down and in the end Earnhardt won. Everyone thought that his tires smoking in each turn would not hold up and he would wreck but they never slipped. In the end he stated that because of this race that next year the rules will change and they did in the form of restrictor plates.
yeah.. I am a little Redneck too.
