When will legal import racing be a major sports like nascar? I like to see those porche and supras and farraris race rather than a bunch of american cars.

I don't know. At the same time I don't see how anything could be better than Nascar. You also have to look at the cost of those cars. For the race to be exciting there has to be crashes and rubbing. Would you race a car that cost that much every week? I don't think the sport could bring in enough money to be able to support the needed upkeep for the cars on a weekly basis.

No it's very wrong, for the most part. \n\nIt's wrong in the fact that it's become a Nextel Cup testing session, that point has been made very very public by teams,drivers and the announcers alike. Nascar knew this would happen (to a ridiculous amount) when they invoked the new testing limit's. A team like Rousch is out right sickening  5 cars in cup (6 if you count the 60car, or the 7 cars he had in the field at Homestead).  and then to run 5 or 6 cars every race in Busch.  They are not only screwing the low budget teams that the Busch Series was designed for but they are running them out. No matter who the sponsor is on the car teams like Roush will always have an bottomless well to draw from.  Then take the situation like Harvick, races in Busch for RCR, owns another car in Busch and utilizes Cup drivers in that car.      \n\nAs far as NASCAR goes, Don't expect a change from them. The more Cup drivers entered into a Busch event the more asses that will be put in seat's and that's all NASCAR want's.  Every year we hear "leveling the field" for all teams, one engine rules, tire leasing, testing limits, and yet all they do is kill the small teams. Go back over the last few year's since Brian took over, look at how many teams have left. \n\nFor a Cup team to enter 5 or 6 cars driven by Cup drivers in the Busch series is out right dispicable.

How right you are my friend!  I hate restrictor plates and same car bull$hit!  Like take the 60's & 70's for example.  Then racin was racin.  I like Dale Jr's show on SPEED Channel "Back in the Day" which is racing in the prime of NASCAR.  I think that Mike Helton should have his ass kicked.

I'm sorry, but I have not heard of any available NASCAR fanclubs for Austrailian fans. I live in the USA, so I'm afraid I can't help much. However, I would encourage you to teach your fellow Austrailian friends about NASCAR racing and get them interested in it. Then, maybe you all can start your own club!\n\nP.S. Your screen name looks like you're a Tony Stewart fan! Same here!!!!!! He's my #1 favorite driver!

I used to be a fan until they have changed the sport.  Use to be an all American sport, not anymore.  I am not sure what you would like to know because there is a lot to the sport.  I would suggest watching it on tv because the do a really good job explaining everthing from the cars to the points and more.

If I had a dollar for every time I have heard "NASCAR is just driving around in a circle/oval" or "its just a bunch of left turns"   I would own it. \n\nNASCAR (stock car racing/motor sports in general)  rocks, for the last time. If you don't like it, it is because you never took the time to understand it.

I'm not sure.  Try contacting different racing places and do some interviews.

I can't believe 48 won another restrictor plate race. I hope Nascar finds something illegal on his car and penalize him. Are the 17, 26, 99 team mates, cause they don't drive like they are.

There was an article on that in one of the Nascar Illustrated one time.  I can't recall when.  Not sure if you can search their archives.  One interesting point I remember out of the article is they like husband and wife team driver because they don't want to go home as much.  Good luck on your search.

Actually, this is not true. NASCAR is controlled by Hendrick, Roush, Yates, Childress, and possibly DEI. They all own at least 5-10% stock in ISC, and bought it when Bill France Jr. gave up control of it. Everybody should know this.

He's not obsessed because Kevin Harvick already has that wrapped up. Besides, a lot of NASCAR Drivers do double duty(Busch and Cup) The Cup guys are regulars on the Busch Series, with people calling them "Buschwackers" Does it make it right? No, does NASCAR care? No cause that's higher ratings for them if the big boys drive in the minors.

In a way I agree with you, but considering that this category does deal with motorsport, rebuilding engines and finding parts for their car might be considered for motorsports if they are racing or building a race car.\n\nwould it be appropriate to post a question regarding finding shocks and tranny parts or specs that are the same as the 1998 Subaru Impreza WRX WRC edition?  That in a way deals with motorsports.\n\nBut I don't think it's right that people post questions like should I buy this car or what are the specs for this so and so car if it's stock.\n\njust my point of view.

Probably because they have never got to truly "experience" Nascar!  It isn't some peoples cup of tea.  Me personally, I love Nascar, and don't think it's a hillbilly sport!  I would like to see any of the haters go through the strain those drivers go through every week, it's a lot tougher than it looks.  Let's send them for a Richard Petty driving experience, I hope Yahoo! is paying!
