You\'ve failed at a lot of things Gman.

-Not being a flamming faggot.
-Making decent threads.
-Life probably.
-Making a decent signature.
-Not getting pwned by me in this thread seems to be your latest.

Toyota races in the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series and the drivers were ok  with it. The Toyotas are manufactured in America so I say why not.

nascar, that\'s where they just drive round and round in circles for 300 laps or so, isn\'t it?

My friends & I like to imitate a NASCAR commentator by shouting, "HOLY SH!T HE\'S TURNING LEFT!!!!!!!!!!"

That whole league is useless

The left turn thing is old. Why not rag on drag racing? They don\'t even need a steering wheel.

I agree, though. Racing is only good if you turn left and right. That\'s what makes a race exciting. :rolleyes:

Left, right, braking, crests on the road....racing should have all these elements. It\'s what cars do. Racing \'round and \'round in an oval is just boring to me.

They do have some road races but I do find it kinda boring. Give me a good sport car race series anyday or a nice rally.

i think nascar is boring as well...sometimes when i\'m flippin\' thru channels, i\'ll come across that gran turismo type stuff...now that i\'ll watch..it\'s interesting to see suped up supra\'s, beemers and stangs go at it on a real strategic course...i\'m not really sure what kind of racing you call it, but it\'s cool to see car makers of all types going at it like that....

Sport car racing :p The Rolex Sports Car Series is one of my favorites but haven\'t seen a race from that series in a while. There was also the TransAm Series I watched a lot (not sure if its still being run) which was mostly suped up Corvettes, Vipers and BMWs and Porches.
