Thanks for the pics sean, always appreciate 'action' racing shots, beit gokarts, cars, trucks whatever

In the last couple of pictures I see it must have been quite a sunny day, a few of the spectators have red necks... :wink: :lol:

As much as we like to knock NASCAR, these guys are still hurtling around at 200mph in a racecar next to concrete walls.. so they goota either have some nads or a little skill.. ;)

Not to mention the fucker who comes in last place still pockets about $40,000 a race... :shock:

SilviaEvo 03-16-2005 06:02 PM

Wow. I'm in the wrong job.

Yes I agree, they must have some serious skill to keep it together at that kind of pace. I find anything over about 140 and my mind cannot keep up with the speed I am driving, too much happening too fast, if that makes sense. I guess its training, and cojones...

to get that last place check, all you need to do is qualify for the race ;)

as the first European responding to your topic, are there any right turns in the track :?: :wink:

thanks for sharing the pictures, very nice ones.

Great pics 67MUSTANG, you seemed to be able to get some great angle! Generally i find NASCAR to be quite dull, but good points being made about the fact that those guys must have balls of steel.

I didn't realise they get paid so much, if the last-placed driver gets 40K then what the hell does the winner get?!

possessed_beaver 03-17-2005 08:26 AM

im shocked by how many people are there!

americans watch out for the australian Marcos ambrose who will be making an apearance there next year as a new racer!

The standings after 3 races into the season: NASCAR is an amazingly profitable business - just like Football, Baseball, Soccer etc - where you have a league of fans who can just about make each months credit card bills turning up to watch people earn more per game/race/event than they each make per year... ;) :P
