It's changed so much over the years and the focus is now on the driver and his/her personality than the race itself. All the cars look the same and the regulations and rules make them boring to me. I liked the old days when a Nascar stock car race pitted 427ci Fords against 427ci Chevys which were both blown off the map for a couple of years by the MoPar 426 Hemi. The cars looked like street versions (ergo 'stock car') and the winning manufacturer enjoyed a spike in sales on the Monday following the weekend race. Eisboch NASCAR is just another variation on the NFL theme: packaging a product to sell other products. Funniest of all are the fans who think their favorite "marque" is out there, doing something. As if the cars are Fords or Chevys or whatevers. Yeah, sure they are, with their space tube frames, hand-molded sheet metal, and specialty running gear that is seen on no street car, and of course the engine, which has nothing to do with a "stock" car. Chevy Won! Sure it did. |
