a very misunterstood type of racing that is usually criticized by fans of other types of racing or people that are just too damn lazy to sit down and WATCH a race (if you like other types of racing, you will be hooked afterwards, believe me).
idiot trailer trash rednecks have given this thrilling form of racing a very very bad image. Nascar originated in the south and east but has grown extensively to the West. most modern day NASCAR drivers are not what you would call "rednecks"
Judging from most of these definitions, people need to get the facts straight about the whole purpose of Nascar. no, its NOT an "excuse for a bunch of cousin fuckin inbreds to expose their beer bellies and drink booze". and YES, it does take alot of talent to fight a 800 horsepower, 4 gear manual 10,000 RPM rear wheel drive stock car, finding traction with NO driver-forgiving computers (such as ABS or Traction control), through the corners fighting the bumps and wake turbulence of other drivers that are within 1 inch, going 4 wide at 200 mph.
Nascar is all about close, white knuckle racing. To the oval racing haters, it looks too easy. Nascar IS real racing. Road racing such as F1 is all about the driving. F1 drivers and NASCAR drivers have an equal amount of talent. But I have nothing against F1, as they can manufacture some of the fastest cars known on earth, but they must whore them out with driver forgiving aids.
consider this also. when they do races on road courses (Watkins Glen and Infineon) they have NO absolutely NO driver aids! they have to be twice as careful with the brakes, not to lock them up, and have to fight the rear end from giving out on the corners with no traction control devices. and no they do NOT drive "30 mph" like that idiot said. They do very very well throughout the course and do not crash. and since nascar is all about passing and racing close, they pass quite often.
Nascar is, and will never be understood or appreciated by non-fans. it is too stereotyped. if you are a fan of racing in general, do yourself a favor and watch a Talladega race sitting in the front row. you'll think twice.
If F1 raced on ovals such as Talladega superspeedway, and removed the driver aids, that would be funner than Nascar to watch. 43 cars doing 250+ MPH down the straights, 6 wide, inches apart, would be a thrill. On the other hand, it will then be criticized by idiots for not being real racing as they just turn left constantly...

The people who vote these bad definitions up are just proving thereselves immature. Don't just vote NASCAR fan's definitions down unless you read the whole thing.
NASCAR IS and always will be a sport no matter what people say. It's great action and it's worth watching. It has tickets and fans, so saying NASCAR isn't a "sport" would be like saying the same for the NFL. Companies and People also make big money off of NASCAR like Fantasy Racing, Diecasts cars, Hats and Jackets with their favorite driver's Logo's and Numbers on it and such.
NASCAR now is the 2nd most popular sport in America.

For all of you that think NASCAR isn't a sport, try sitting around in a non-air conditioned car (which has temperatures that exceed 100 degrees) wearing a leather suit and driving around for hours upon hours. And try taking left turns at about 140-170 mph without crashing. Call me a redneck if you like, but I damn sure love the SPORT of NASCAR.
NASCAR is damn good entertainment.

Noise Action Sixpack Cooler Asphalt Rubber
The greatest sport of them all, which runs races on short tracks, intermediate ovals, superspeedways, and road courses, which means that the venues where it is held have more variety then the venues where NFL games are held. For some reason, this sport pisses off liberals, who are too busy watching alternative homoerotic musicals or whatever they do for fun to appreciate how awesome NASCAR really is. NASCAR is well organized, and sanctions events on national, regional, and local levels. You can also bring your own beer and food to the races, so you don't have to eat crappy overpriced concessions or pay more for one beer than an entire sixpack.
Do you watch NASCAR?
Damn Straight!

A sport that was formed in 1948. NASCAR stands for National Association for Stock Car Auto Racing. There are tracks across the country of the United States. The two main types of tracks are Circle tracks and Road courses (there aren't just circle tracks, you know). The season starts off with the Daytona 500, as the biggest race in NASCAR. NASCAR has three main leagues: The Sprint Cup Series (which is the more famous), the Nationwide Series, and the Camping World series, where the drivers race trucks instead of cars. In the Sprint Cup Series, there are 43 drivers per race over a given number of laps based on how many miles the race is (Daytona 500 means 500 miles).
Did you see the NASCAR race last Sunday? I didn't get to see who won; I hope it was Dale Jr.
