No sir, not me.
I caught a little bit of talk on the nascar channel this morning, something about mr nascar telling a couple of drivers to stay away from each other in a race cause they've been bad boys lately.

Might as well finish hyping it by having one hit the other with a folding chair. I bet bubba and junior are eating that up. It's getting more and more like WWF every day.

Fight is eminent? Well, Crashcar is the only racing format in the world where this happens, so would argue with you about that statement. Other drivers around the world are man enough to be professional on and off the track but these "good old boys" have not made it to that point yet.

Didn't Paul Tracy get into a shoving match 2 years ago with Alex Tagliani ?

Then the following week Tracy got into a discussion with Sebastian Bourdais.

How about A.J. Foyt hitting Arie Lyendyk in victory lane in Texas.

Let's not forget Michael Schumacher attempting to punt Jacque Villeneuve at Jerez Spain in 97 when Villeneuve passed Schumacher for the lead and championship.

These stock car engines are very impressive. Around 800 horsepower, running at 9000 RPM for 500 miles. Wow.

Some of this technology can be used in your 911.
