    Default what type of racing do you like?

    so i was talking to paul and with all these changes that are comming about for the site i brought up the idea of having an section devoted to the world of racing. things like whats going on in the world or racing, news, updates, happenings. those type of things. what i want to know is what is it that you are interested. I've listed a few that are my favorites up top in the pole but i want you guys to voice your opinions. These articles and and this section will be devoted to the types or racing you like, so post up! if you dont see something that you like on the pole. lemme knwo what you like, and ill try and incorporate it in the article!

    I gotta be honest. Unless I'm actually driving (drifting, road course, auto-x, mtn. run, ect...) I find racing to be boring as hell.

    It's cool.

    I dunno man, I just can't sit there and get excited about watching cars racing each other. I mean don't get me wrong. If I go to Formula D, NASCAR at Talledega Super Speedway, Petite Le Mans, or something like that then I'll definitely get swept into the spectacle and enjoy myself. Without the spectacle though, I can't just sit there and get excited about it. Like when watching it on TV, it's as boring a baseball.

    yeah, and newgen thats not really true, its been a few years since ferrari has been as dominant as they were back in the days of schuemacher(sp?) and barricello(sp?) many more teams have actually been qualifying well and placing well.
