A few of us, but we try not to upset the locals with it.

Who am I kidding, I love NASCAR!!  But in all seriousness, only a couple of us here really follow it.  It would be nice to have more people to discuss it with.

Tcco94 ran a great fantasy Nascar league  last season, and I'm hoping to see it return next season.  Cool

#48 fan over here Cheesy
I do happen to like some other drivers to  Wink

and Shane we will be running it again. Im pretty sure the ESPN.com will keep us all in the league inless someone chooses to leave so we wont even need to do the joining process but I will be kicking out my step brother as he never played.  Grin He was Team Wendys---last place...

Although the league got carried away as I had Johnson and Stewart who mostly held first place in the standings the whole season  Grin. Ill inform everyone when we start it back up.

I think there will be an open slot, or maybe 2. Care to join if your a nascar fan?  Cool

I used to watch nascar, but then got spoiled by cooler forms of motorsport and haven't gone back.

I just so happen to live for NASCAR......been a diecast collector for 20-ish years now....my wife calls the basement 'The Museum'.......collection is insured, and valued, in the low six-figure range.

Soooooooo, I reckon you could label me a fan! Cheesy

Football uses one ball, baseball uses one ball, Nascar drivers use two....!!! Wink

By the way.......I'd fully equip myself and root for Juan Pablo before I'd EVER cheer on the 48!!! Tongue

Or 24! Tongue

Although I do have a "mixed" marriage....she's 24 and I am one of the remaining dozen or so 88 fans!

HEY!  There's still hope.......... Cheesy Grin Cheesy

NASCAR fans rejoice , the wing is going away!!

@ C: Since Indy & F1 use faster cars, also plastered with sponsor decals, I have to disagree, it's the world's 3rd fastest commercial. Grin Wink

That should slow them down a bit. I wondered how long it would take. It was either that, or bigger tracks with longer straights and runoff areas.
Yes, I am a fan, though I have not watched in a while. Gordon, Junior, and a few more are my favorites. I never really liked it until I got the sim years ago. I found out it is not as easy as it looks. But I still prefer road racing, preferably with 'stock' appearing vehicles. I don't really like any open wheel version. I know, I know, F1 is #1 in Europe. Sorry, I just don't like it. Now give me something with Corvettes, Camaros, Mustangs, Aston-Martins, Porsche,  Ferrari, etc, with a lot of twistys and I am happy.  Smiley
