I've never been into NASCAR, but...


...that's mainly because I wasn't into cars in general until about 10 years ago. Once I began to appreciate all things automotive, and particularly the engineering that goes into vehicles, I probably would have been ripe for the picking as a prospective NASCAR fan, particularly given the fact that over the last 10 years, I have all but given up on "traditional" sports. But what you described in your first point is exactly how I feel - I don't want to watch a bunch of guys drive the exact same car. As far as I'm concerned, all that does is turn racing into a lottery experience - rather than highlight driving, to me it just means that whoever has the best luck of position in the field WRT crashes/other fast cars and/or has the most bolt-on parts with no manufacturing defects has the best chance to win. I have no interest in watching that. And I don't.
