The anger stems from the frustration over the low popularity of road racing in America. The people that truly hate it generally do so because they are jealous of the success and fan base for such a "low level" form of motorsports vs F1 or SCCA type racing. I dislike the lack of true drivers myself. I think over half the drivers have no business being on the track and only got their ride from the good-ole-boy connection, I.E. the Andretti guy, I mean come on find a sofo somewhere to drive!
Now the good part, it can be exciting. I went to Bristol and it was AWESOME! Also went to MIS and almost fell asleep. Short track is great Super speedway is gay for lack of a better word.
Guys like Superman dislike it because the wannabe intellectual crowd finds the fans an easy target to hurl their insults at, most of these involve the word "beer". Hey, it makes em feel better.
So no I'm not a fan but I won't turn down free tickets to a short track race, good racin is good racin
