The Indy "Road Course" is not the best example.  

But honestly,

1. WRC
2. F1
3. MotoGP

There's the best right there, IN ORDER, imo.

"Im not saying that its easy to race on an oval track, its just that I find it boring to watch. "

Some of them ARE boring to watch, and they just happen to be at the tracks that are the most widely televised--Daytona, Talladega, etc.  Some of the drivers don't like driving at those tracks, either.  

Generally speaking, the shorter/slower the track, the better the nascar race is as a spectator sport.  The races at Bristol or Martinsville are nearly always interesting.   I prever this sort of racing over something like F1 because the drivers don't have to avoid each other like they do in open wheel cars--there's contact in nascar, and lots of it.

Rosbergs performance in his first race was awesome too. He's the son of the first finnish F1 world champion and it looks like he inherited some talent. ;)

Did I ever tell you guys about the time when I raced a F3 driver in karting?

I lost. :mad: :aok
