found this to be a most amusing read...

though there was a comment posted that made me think really hard about something:

if nascar were to only run on tracks like the nurburgring, how would it change things?

would it not be cooler, and specifically, more RELEVANT, if nascar more closely resembled the btcc or dtm?

imagine:
actual mainstream midsize family production cars impala, stratus, camry modified for racing, and braking hard, turning left AND RIGHT...

would be more like the old adage, "race on sunday, sell on monday."
