The only motorcycle racing that appeals to me is the International Isle
of Man TT in any category. I especially like the sidecar races. The TT
races are very fast and very dangerous. These last few years, the TV
coverage has been terrific.

The only sort of organized car racing that appeals to me is Formula and
sports car racing over public roads, or interesting closed tracks such
as Lime Rock. Racing around circles or ovals bores me. I'm not saying
such racing can't be exciting or won't draw a huge fan base or doesn't
require a great deal of skill; obviously, it does. But it doesn't do
much for me. I attended the Daytona 500 when we lived in Florida and, to
me, the race was boring. I'm sure everyone else in the stands disagreed.
I really don't understand the appeal of NASCAR.

I know that to people like you who are ignorant of the sport, it looks
like people are just driving around in a circle. It's far, far from
that. That's how I know that you've never been in an organized race in
your life. If you had, you'd know better.
