I'll watch NASCAR if there's nothing else interesting on. IMHO, it's gotten pretty boring. Everyone has the same chassis, same body, pretty much the same engine (Chevy, Dodge and Toyota run copys of the Yates Ford). Only reason to watch is the wrecks. I read somewhere this week that NASCAR is encouraging bump-drafting and aggressive driving. Sounds like they want more wrecks too. But, to each his own. Since I don't have cable or satelite I can't watch Drag Racing, so I'm just SOL.

I read the same thing Pete. More bump drafting and aggressive driving will be allowed this year, sounds like they are doing it to drum up more viewership.

I took my truck to a lake today for 4x4 ice drags. 1/4 mile "drag strip" plowed out on the lake. Had a good time, one my first round, got eliminated on the second. Not sure of ET but trap speed was 75 mph on my first run. It all came down to lane choice, one lane was near perfect, the other had a lot of "new ice" that was very slick. Made for a fun ride down the track, sideways at 65mph.
