they tested a nascar against some other fast car, even though they left the setup for high speed or whatever which was stupid. my dad loves nascar and ive only been to one race(daytona) but i think its boring as hell. shit theyre going around again!! its like watching a replay. I like watching touring cars like GTs.

Ok enough of the lame ass Nacar b/s, back to the topic of hand.

Check out the Porsche vs. Ferrari

I love Top Gear like it's my babies mama.

Re: Speed channel...

These nascar guys are such babies throwing there helmets at the guys that is a "piece of shit" on live tv. And they like to wreck their cars into everyone else under yellow.

This Loudon race is just showing nascars true colors.

Re: Speed channel...

And watching Nextel cup cars racing around the road courses is almost as much fun as watching grass grow. The cars are underpowered whales when the right hand turns show up.

Re: Speed channel...

dude ur a moron... I would hardly call anything with 750hp and under 4000lbs slow. Plus it doesn't make any difference if they are running ovals or a road course... the road course cars are completely different, not just in settings, but teams have a few cars just for road courses.

I'm a moron? Did you know that an F1 car has that much power, lots more downforce, and a third of the weight of a Nextel cup car? Which do you think is gonna be more exciting to watch on tv????

The one Dodge Viper GTS-R in the American Le Mans Series is an old race car and can't keep up with the two factory Corvette C6-Rs. One of the C6-Rs recently won the GT1 class at Petit Le Mans (9+ hour endurance race at Road Atlanta) and the 24 Hours of Le Mans earlier this year.
