That's the major appeal of NASCAR. The pushrod technology and the close-to stock appearance that everyday fan can relate to.
Why not? F1 is the pinnacle of motorsport.
NASCAR: The cars look awful and outdated. They do not resemble anything interesting you can buy from Chevrolet (the current Camaro) or Ford (the current Mustang).
DTM and other European touring cars share more in common with the road going versions.
And don't forget the wrecks. NASCAR fans love them big wrecks!!!
Not enough wrecks in F1 for NASCAR fans.
This simply is not true for serious NASCAR fans. Yes there are a lot of jerks watching all kinds of racing including F1 just hoping for wrecks.
I can guarantee this you have a lot more F1 fans hoping to see a pass for the lead then you see NASCAR fans hoping for a wreck. Unfortunately the NASCAR fan usually gets his wish.
I just read in Automobile magazine (the F1 bible) that in the 2010 F1 season there were exactly two passes for the lead the entire season.
You guys should do more wishing.
