NASCAR fans

Why do they paint fake headlights on the cars?

Also..why do they let NASCAR drivers race in the Busch series?

Cup drivers bring out more fans.

Plus I think it helps the less experienced Busch drivers learn.

I thought Busch was the "minor leagues" of NASCAR. No?


Do NFL players go back and play for their college teams on Saturday?

Lame.

I was JK about looking like a real car.

I agree with ya on Cup guys driving in Busch. Shoudn't be allowed. But as we all know, the almighty dollar speaks loudly in all sports. Cup guys bring more fans out to Busch races thus increasing ticket and concession sales.

Well...not really. I was trying to get into it...up until the NASCAR dudes started racing the Busch series, and the fake headlight thing seemed like a slam against the fans.

Did they really think the fans are that dumb???

I for one believe that Denny actually races on his Rascal @ nursing homes.
