What with the "oil crisis" we are in, people keep singling out NASCAR as a "waste" of fuel that could be used for more "productive" purposes.
Well... WHY ONLY NASCAR?
What about:
United Midget Auto Racing Association
Vintage Auto Racing Association
Antique Auto Racing Association
Prince George Auto Racing Association
Sprint car racing associations.
Utah Salt Flats Racing Association
NHRA / IHRA
Indy Racing League
Not to mention the THOUSANDS of "Car Clubs" across America that go out for Sunday drives just for the heck of it.
Then, we haven't even mentioned:
BOAT racing
AIRPLANE racing
MOTORCYCLE racing
What else can we add to that list?
Please explain WHY NASCAR seems to be the only ones ever taking the "hit" for "unproductive" use of fuels?
