The racing speed and weight of NASCAR's completely precludes racing on tracks with tight or flat corners, the cars would either roll off the track or have to slow down so much, you would need massive straights to get back to full speed (hence the rolling starts). These cars have crap acceleration and low speed handling. What they do have is fast as feck engines (220mph if the new mandated restrictor plates are removed) and unpredictable aerodynamic and handling behaviours at top speeds heavily influnced by the other cars relative positions (hence the tow/bump behaviour) and tyre condition. The result is the opportunity for drivers to practice the real art of racing, that is timing, judgement, and adaptation, at literally lethal speeds (c.f. Dale Earnhart). You could have left and right banking turns, but that would just mean half the track being obscured to spectators, for not much benefit. Add to that the fact that otherwise competing teams cooperating when it suits to screw over other teams is allowed, and technology is kept basic to allow competition, I think it's pretty exciting. For racing skill I watch BTCC, but for high speed racing I for one am now a total convert to NASCAR from the turd that is F1. Plus, you can't beat crossing the finish line upside down in flames, try that in an Indi Car Ok first of all, use some paragraphs, Nascar is hard enough to read about in the first place... Annnnnd, I posted that at 2:49am.... do not take someone too seriously at a time when it's clear they've had a few refreshments. Annnnnnnd, Nascar is still wank.

They did mis-print week, but with Real Mardid you never know I guess.

Went to the gym at 11-12, then cam home to watch the PNE match.

Gave away ANOTHER needless free kick as he does consistantly which we conceded from. Seems to have a severe lack of a "football brain", when it comes to decision making.

You can tell Walcoot wants to tell him to fuck off but he doesn't dare. Walcott won't score today tbh.

As SMO said... anyone abusing Diouf should not be punished. However, calling him a "fucking camel" would have been more appropriate.

You should just be happy you're eventually allowed to have a laptop tbh.

We're not really in the position to know what he should or should not be doing tbh. He needs to be pushed very hard on the cardio-vascular fitness element I'm sure, having not ran for several months.

£2.50 return and a 10 minute journey for me! 1pm kick off for this one, so need to be in the pub by 11ish!

Yeah credit to them. They usually charge prices like that to home supporters and hike our prices up, like Birmingham away last season. I can't remember what the prices were last season though, I went to both games, I think the cup game was cheaper though.
