Well there you go! Funny, I understand that NASCRAP drovers do VERY well on road courses. Any body that can slide a 3500 lump around almost continuous corners for 500 miles has some car control skillz IMO.
NASCAR improves the bread but is about RACING, one guy droving faster than everyone else with everybody in approximately the same car. Just like…. wait for it… every spec class venue ever dreamed of. I don’t like NASCAR, F1 or just about any other TV spectator sport but appreciate the skill level needed to be successful
