Gentlemen, Start you engines!

NASCAR 2012 season kicks off tonight with the Bud Shootout, a 75 lap Checkers or Wreckers run for the money. WOOT! :x

Hey they're making a left turn, then another left turn and another left turn! I wonder what they are going to do next!

I don't know why everyone likes to hate on NASCAR. It's one of my favorite sports to watch!  :banana:

I just watched Kyle Busch make the most amazing recovery I've ever seen. Not once but twice he was sideways at over 190 and managed to get it gathered up without wrecking. A-freaking-mazing! :O

I don't hate it but to me it's more fun to rag on the fans than watch the race.  :t :devil :neener:

With the new aero package to stop 2 car drafting, that is happening frequently. It's not the driver's fault, it's the guy behind him that taps his left rear. 1 slight bump there and the lead car is a goner.
They need to raise the rear spoiler and add downforce. It's a bad set-up now.

Karma just bit Jeff Gordon in the butt. He tried to spin out Kyle Busch and wound up spinning himself and about 10 others cars instead.
Kyle Busch saved it again!

Hahahaha omg that was hilarious!!!! I don't think I've ever seen a car throw sparks around corners and come around to win!! I was almost crying I was laughing so hard lol


Kyle had to of put on one of the best performances ever. How many people have been wrecked twice and came back to win on the last straight away? :rock


I love the fact that Gordon wrecked. He got Exactly what he deserved!!

Mannn I thought this was going to be about real racing with real racecars.
Not a bunch of rednecks in dragsters driving around making left turns
