or Indy cars, and endurance racing, I will actually watch almost any racing, except Nascar.
NASCAR is boring to watch IMO but it is not a skill less sport. Going 190mph in a pack of 28+ cars inches from each others bumpers is no easy task.
I have driven a stock car at PIR at about 140-150mph and it was scary as hell
I only did two laps and my arms were rubber 
It is still boring to watch though

Asscar? That's the lamest of all. I mean, a circle? really? and you can't even hit 200mph?
Formula 1, now there's a sport. Circuit track and 220+ on some straits, without track bends to assist.

Lamest of all, no way there are plenty of sports much lamer then nascar.
Formula 1 is one hell of a sport, its the best IMO 
cant wait for Formula 1 to get going

Oh come on. You have to give credit where credit is due.

1000 left turns boring, ok I see why some people might think that, but I still think its great entertainment I also agree that it isnt a skill less sport just maybe a less skilled sport then say F1, Indy, or WRC.Driving a stock car sounds like a blast and something a normal person could actually do given the opportunity where as I dont think many people could handle a F1 car given the oportunity
of course that is what makes F1 so much better to begin with

I just always feel bad when I watch it because the whole time I am hoping for a wreck to happen. It makes me feel dirty
The shootout this year was pretty sweet though
F1 racing is pretty amazing but to be honest I find it more boring to watch then NASCAR especially in person. Any road courses are no fun to go to because you only see one corner at most places. At least in NASCAR you can usually see most of the track
As far as skill level goes, F1 wins hands down
