I am a big auto racing fan, but I really don't understand the fixation the American public has with NASCAR. I tuned into the last 10 laps and that's all you really need to watch during a restrictor plate race.
Sadly, I think most NASCAR fans watch it for the crashes.
Personally, I prefer Formula 1, which brings the most skilled drivers in the world together to compete on the most challenging road courses in the world. Can't wait til the season kicks off in Australia in a couple of weeks.
Truthfully, I find NASCAR far, far more entertaining than F1. F1 racing often seems to be little more than a parade at 300KPH. Very little passing.

That said, I'm not big on racing altogether. I used to like Cart, but I havent bothered with racing much since Greg Moore died.
