NASCAR can be related to everyday life, making sense of its existence, high horsepower go carts, not so much.

I think it has to do with the technology and pushing the limits of what is possible. F1 cars require real superhuman dexterity (and money!) to operate and Im inspired by the depth of the engineering and innovation that each F1 car exemplifies.
I do enjoy NASCAR however for the drama. It can be terribly uneventful at times, but once I was able to get my head around the "back story" of the season I was able to enjoy more of the racing.
