Jacked, Hell you gotta try harder than that!
There will be a class on Tuesday in the Lounge section 
Kasey Kahne is the answer---though I don't watch NASCAR.......those vehicles have TO MANY WHEELS. Proper racing requires 2 wheels per vehicle

I'm likely headed to Elma Wa tomorrow on 2 wheels, to watch a sprint car race with a couple guys I work with. One‘s a sprint car driver and the other, an old flat tracker. I mix and mingle. Mostly I just set there and knod and laugh at there stories, which are great. And, if you haven't seen 1300 lb cars with 800+ hp. kickn up mud, you need to!
Uhm...wah.........800hp?!?!?!?! You sir have my attention
http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sprint_car_racing Actually, looks like old info, they're at 900 now. You have to find a track and go at least once. They are fast with lots of passing in VERY TIGHT quarters. My dad used to build them back in the day. I never inherited that genius from him, sad to say. I just like to watch...
I have a couple tracks in this area that run the Sprint cars but its not very well organized. I've talked to a couple folks that run out there, they do this track to get some laps in for tuning and then run the bigger, organized races in Baytown. One of these days I'm going to make it down to Baytown for the races.
I prefer the races with the fast cars. You know, the 500ci 10,000hp cars. HP values are just estimates on what the engines put out, there isn't a dyno that can handle the output from the engines. Others have estimated 12,000+ hp. It's awesome to see them hit over 300MPH in 1000 feet.

I'm no engineer, and maybe that's why it blows my mind to think about. But when I think about any recipricating part in a piston engine and figure out how many times it changes direction in a second, even at 5000 RPM.... dang...:worthy:
Something else about this forum, even honey boo boo can be turned to horsepower....

I'm going to pull my horns in a little bit and admit that, from that list, I watch American Pickers if I come upon it while channel surfing. Some of the motorcycle stuff they uncover is very interesting.
I like firearms and shooting so I also watched Top Shot when it was on. The same goes for Sons of Guns. It's not for the people, but for the gunsmithing and shooting.

LOL Horsepower rules! Have a safe trip and get some pics if you can (of the races NOT of Honey Boo Boo).
I have 3 quarter mile dirt tracks that run stockers, super mods, and sprint cars within no more than 20 minutes from me.
It's big around here....I can even hear them racing from one track every Saturday night in the summer.
I have friends who love entering the demo derby.

Well this is the thing there are some nice reality show that are interesting. I will also watch them if they are on at the time I am looking for something to watch and those are just some of the ones I will stop and watch.
Ya, 37 year old Jason Lefler just died a few weeks back in Bridgeport. He was a favorite around here locally because he really helped Kasey K. get established in the USAC series when Kasey moved to Indy.
