Nascar and Formula One

[thepaulo]

Trying to understand racing. Rush and Senna are about Formula One.

Apparently a Formula One car is about $10,000,000 and Nascar about $250,000
Nascar Trashy, Formula One Classy.

Then there are drag racers who seem like a bunch of lunatics.

I watched my first F1 race 2 weeks ago. I think Rush looks really good so i was watching a "making of" and the race came on afterwards. I find Nascar a bit boring. Every year i tune in for the big Daytona race and fall asleep somewhere early on, wake up 3hrs later, and the race is STILL going on. The F1 Grand Prix i watched was done in about an hour fifteen. I enjoyed it alot more.

Senna is a fantastic documentary about Formula One. Rush is pretty good but not as good.

Top Gear always makes F1 look just as white trash as nascar. Atleast the drivers seem just as dumb. I think it's just that european hang up americans have.

Like do you understand how much those fuckers LOVE trailers? August in Europe is armys of 300 lbs men with no shirts on in flip flops drinking fosters outside of a trailer. Dont believe the hype, England pretty much invented obesity.

Actually the Steve McQueen movie Le Mans has a documentary feel and the trailers were everywhere like some huge gypsy camp.
