Default The State of NASCAR

I know this doesn't have anything to do with bashing Honda F1 mgt but I thought this was an excellent post on the state of NASCAR; it comes from another site, AE.

"... what was once a compelling spectacle and an excuse to drink a few cold beers on Sunday afternoon has become as predictable, slick, and generic as the Target advertising insert in the newspaper. NASCAR
