    i used to be a big NASCAR fan, then i watched as DE hit the wall....

    i tried watching 3 races after that, couldnt stomach them anymore. the love of racing died for me that day.

    No such thing as fool proof, but it's much safer now. Lessons were learned.

    Then you are truly not a fan, just someone who worships an idol.

    Not really a race fan but that was a nice pre-race prayer. He obviously enjoys racing and is thankful for all the technology that makes it all possible. I see nothing wrong with it.

    So what is your favorite track you have visited?

    Bristol here. Love the place.

    Sadly never made it to Rockingham.

    The only race I've been to is Bristol. for the last 15 years we have been camping on the drag strip lot. Section D. We get there on Tuesday and camp all week for the August date. Great time, and meet lots of people from all over.:rockwoot:

    Same here...

    I disagree... DE was one of the last old-school drivers on the track and he dominated because of it. He had forgotten more about racing than many of these young guys know. It was a tragedy when he died and he took a long history with him. Unfortunately, what he also took with him was some of the last old-school racing out there... Racing just isn't the same with an old-school racer out on the track schooling these guys. I watched for a couple more years wanting so bad for Dale Junior and Kevin Harvick (driving DE's old car) to blossom into great racers but they just couldn't pull it together. I'm sure they're better now but I just lost my interest after DE was gone. That doesn't make someone "just someone who worships an idol", that makes them someone that enjoys the sport for what it used to be...
