People can bash NASCAR all they want. I WAS a basher, but now I can get into it. It is oval, and yes it APPEARS easy, but it's not. It's still a race- people trying to get to the finish line first. It would be nice to see more GT circuit racing, but it's all about economics. If you can't make money out of it, then it WILL disappear. Here's a non-racing example, but the idea is the same. The Supra was cut from the US market because of crappy sales. Was a Supra a great car? Depends who you ask. Would they keep it for the minority who thought it was at the time? No. The same with everything else. You may think NASCAR sucks, but it is the number 1 motorsport in the US. That is a fact; that is why it is on prime time.

I personally think watching drift events is boring, but I can show appreciation for it. The same should hold true for the haters and NASCAR. I agree that the best way to get the sport you want is to go to events and buy tickets/merchandise. Whining about it on a forum will do nothing.
