Default I hate Nascar

If you like watching WRC, Touringcar, F1, anything but left hand corners and old technology then you need to sign this.



http://www.petitiononline.com/SpdTV/petition.html

speedchannel / nascar TV has canceled WRC, F1, and many other motorsports programing.

please help save the species in North America

I don't hate Nascar, I'd just prefer to have a little variety in the programming. Truth be told, Speed has gone down since it changed hands/names.

I don't have television, but just so you know, the last time this was done it didn't do a thing.

I'd be signing to get back WSBK, IOM TT and MotoGP anyway.

I hate NASCAR! No one wants to see a bunch of retarded rednecks smashing into each other in crappy fords! F1 and WRC takes so much more skill than NASCAR, if Fernando Alonso decided to race in NASCAR instead of F1 he would win every race, every time, every track!

At least they still have Two Wheel Tuesday. I can get all my MotoGP live on Sunday or replayed on Tuesday. I signed the petition too.

Well, there have been a 1/2 dozen open wheel drivers try Nascar.
None have made a good show yet.

Racing is racing. Bring it...

I currently support 5 roadrace rental cars, Midget, Sprint, Dwarf car.

The dirt is way more fun than the road racing most of the time...

Isn't that the petition started when Speedvision was bought out?
SpeedTV doesn't have as much NASCAR as people thought they would.
But wait until Toyota gets into the action.

For me, my favorite is Australian Grand Touring and Jetboat autocross.
I like some of that dirt oval stuff.

NASCAR has Watkin's Glen and Infineon in Cali which are road course, so it's not all left hand turns.

Anyways traveling in a tight pack at 180mph with a few inches apart does take skill and running for 300-500 laps also strains the limits of a driver.

Skill and stupidty. I remember tracking out against the wall on the oval at NHIS. I was not too comfortable with that. Mid-Ohio and Watkins Glen also have turns you track out close to walls. I will admit, it takes a lot of car control to place the car exactly where you want it without going into the wall.

When I heard Boris Said doing NASCAR, it legitimized it as racing for me.
