    Driving a car and playing linebacker are two different things. Fat football players are also ripped, in shape and faster than you and me. Just because something is competitive does not make it a sport. Chess is competitive but its not a sport.

    When you're only as good as your car is on that day, its not a sport.

    Another uneducated post. The really good drivers find ways to win even when their car isn't in the best of shape in terms of handling or aerodynamics.

    When did you change your username?
    I don't know the key to success, but the key to failure is trying to please everyone.

    Because it requires no athletic ability at all. You could be 60 years old and 300lbs and race nascar. In what other "sport" could you do that?

    Ok, you can be 60 years old and weigh 120lbs and race nascar. In what other "sport" can you do that?

    omg find a 60 yr old then get over it, it is a sport! Bill Elliot is in the race mid 50's or so but there have been other athelets in numerous sports play well into their mid to late 40's. bill elliot is a past exemption prob only race he will run this yr. otherwise they are as old as any other athelete
