Sports cars go round and round, different track, different day. I haven't made it through a whole Gran Am race yet....ever. ALMS pretty much the same. They are fun to watch in person when they come to Long Beach, but they make poor TV, IMHO.
CrashCAR does road races to speedway to short track. Something for everyone. And a LOT more talent to set up and drive those solid axle cars than any other kind. That's why I watch some of the races.
Just ask Chip Ganassi. No driver has come from outside the NASCAR genre and dominated. I'm considering dirt tracks to be part of it since that's where most of them cut their teeth.
If Montoya, Fanchitti, Raikkonen, et al, had done anything, I would stand down. The "show" is sometimes tacky. Everyone has their problems. See the recent F1 thread.
