nascar fans ?
I was a Dale Earnhardt fan before he died in a crash at Daytona in 2001, and have been a fan of Nascar ever since. The biggest reason I liked him, was the fact that he was just down to earth, regular guy that started with absolutely nothing, and made it big in Nascar because of his ability to drive a car at crazy high speeds with no fear, and he was probably the biggest reason a bumper in Nascar was called a "chrome horn"! Nobody got in his way, but everybody got out of his way, and not always by choice.

Yeah, back when real men raced, and Nascar allowed them to police themselves, and not get penalized for showing some emotion or frustration. Although I am still a HUGE fan of the sport, some of these kids driving now, look a lot younger than my 18 year old son, and I think my wife could alot of their asses.

They are all the same anyway, as far as body and chassis. The only thing that really defines the brand, is the motors and tranny.
My buddy, who is a huge Chevy fan, tries to rub it in every time a Chevy wins. All I have to do to shut him up, is ask him what type of rear-end that Chevy was using.......Oh, that's right....it's a FORD 9"
To be honest, if they brought back Trans-Am Racing, and actually televised it live, I would definately prefer that. NHRA is still my favorite

I think the Mustangs & other Pony cars are great for Nascar. Too bad Chevy hasn't brought in the Camaro.
I am a huge Nascar fan & have been since joining a pool at work a couple of years ago. Carl Edwards is the man, so nice to see the Fords winning again. Jack Roush & Yates with the new FR9 Engines kick butt!

Hi ya'll....I've been a longstanding Nascar fan..Dale & Jr...that old Harvick guy ain't to bad a racer either!
Anyway, doing a bucket list thing this October and going to Charlotte for the Sprint Cup race. My wife has to go judge at The American National Specialty for Old English Sheepdog's in Hickory NC..just an hour from Charlotte 3 days before the race. So the timing was awesome!
So this all ties in with getting my new Red/Blk Roush 5XR....whooohaaaa!
