Why isnt there a sports catagory for Auto Racing?

You have to go under Cars & Transportation then it's listed as Auto & Motor Sports

Yea, I think it needs to be included..\n\nI think they should have a college sports category, that would cover football, basketball and other college sports\n\nLets make it happen!!

Yes I really wish they would get us a catagory...We compete just as hard as any other sport does, whether it be in a marathon or a 10k or in the 100m. I've been looking around and answering whatever questions other runners have to help out, but we really need a catagory. They have all these obscure catagories (darts?????? dozens of different types of soccer???) but no running, which is the basis of almost every single sport. I'm going to email them asking them if they could add a running catagory...

Auto racing, motorcycle racing and bicycle racing.

All types of races have different categories because not all stock cars have the same elapsed time. There is usually a qualifiying stage for this and from there they would put you in your class. have loads of fun :-)

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.

Try going 300 times in a racecar on the track. You will be lucky if you can stand the pressure on you mind and body for 100 of those. It is physical activity. Try it some time- go to the Richard Petty Drivers School or one like it. You will change your mind fast. As far as being a "sport" it is more demanding than football or basketball or baseball. Try it before you knock it. As far as the other posters- you do not know what you are talking about.

Between NHL, NBA, NFL, MLB, NASCAR, golf, tennis, etc. etc. they don't have much time for a "new" sport. Plus there is the fact that the UFC has some proprietary elements which tend to delegitimize it. The octagon cage is trademarked, the organization lacks transparency, etc. Rightly or wrongly, that puts it in the same league as Slam ball or American Gladiators in eyes of mainstream sports journalists. If there was an independent international sanctioning/ranking body for all MMA promotions that would help, but I doubt that is going to happen.

NFL. NASCAR is a very close second.\n\nAnd, no, NASCAR is no longer just a "redneck" sport. In fact, in the future you may likely see the NFL take a cue from NASCAR and start placing sponsors on the players' jerseys to support the astronomical salaries the players are demanding.

So what tthe H*** does this crap have to do with Autos and motorsports?

Great question. I have always thought that. Just look at when Ford was dominating the first few races a couple of years ago.NASCAR more than jumped over it's own azz to change the rules so that the Shytrolets would have a chance.

Baseball is the slowest sport around, yet millions go to games every year.\nShouldn't NASCAR be put on the list, too?

Nascar doesn't decide that.  You may have to contact the track officials, or if the city/county board runs the events at the track you will have to find out from them.  Other than that, you won't be able to look online or anything.

LUV NASCAR. I can't believe nobody said "its just a bunch of cars driving in a circle" yet. As many times as this question has been asked on here, there has always been at least one answer like that...

Nascar is by far the most abominable sport (if you can even call it a sport) known to man. A car going in a circle?!?!

Formula 1 has the highest tech, Le Mans has the most interesting race, but I'm kind of hooked on amateur club racing.  Real people, not just corporate money.
