<-----------nascar and dirt track racing girl!!!!!!!!!!!

i am hoping for benson, liked him from day one with no sponsors or local hero blaney. he owns a dirt track 30 minutes from my house. he is a very nice guy that would do anything for you.

I watch NASCAR, and yes at times it can get boring, but thats when you start eating sunflower seeds or doing something else to occupy yourself... I'm a Mark Martin fan, and seeing hum finish runner-up in the championship six times now Im getting frustrated, and think, as always, that he has a good shot at it this year with more team experience... I sometimes watch WRC, but there is little technical aspect involved in watching it, so it gets old... Cart is cool when they are in a city... I think watching midget cars and sprint cars is the coolest though

No offense...

but I really don't see the enjoyment in seeing someone drive around an oval all day. Now WRC on the other hand... now that's racing.

yeah- he had no sponsor at the beginning of last season, he was dropped because he sucks... he did well at Daytona so valvoline, who dropped Mark Martin because they werent willing to pay him the big money his superstar status required, acquired him as their new driver... starting to make sense yet?
