NASCAR

This goes out to a friend of mine. Top 5 reasons why NASCAR IS AWESOME...Now I understand that I did 5 because I couldn't think of 10...but that is besides the point.

1-You can fall asleep AND wake up and MOST LIKELY MISS NOTHING WHILE WATCHING IT! You're tuned in for the beginning excitement and can get some rest before the big finish.

2- RELAXING...and yeah yeah...maybe this goes with #1 but what a relationally building sport to watch...You don't have anything to listen to, you're watching cars go in a continuous circle so you can have deep talks, funny talks, and not skip a beat...Jacob stop laughing.

3- IT IS A SCIENCE PEOPLE---alright...so from the tires to the call you make on when you change the tires/ go to pit road, etc. And if a bolt isnt tightened quite enough on pit road it could ruin your entire race. there is a lot of science involved. And the whole thing with pushing that helped Ryan Newman win the Daytona 500 this year...Bill Nye all over that.

4- LUCK- so let's say you need to go to pit road and refuel and get new tires but you risk a few laps hoping a caution will come up...yeah...luck needed. it will keep you on the edge of your seat...will he get the caution? will he not? will he ruin his tires and lose a few points? and if you are reading thinking...points? You need to go read the rules. bc there's lots of points involved.

5- These drivers have the highest sustained heart rate compared to any other sport...and apparently one talked about how hard it is to hold it for that long...that's a man's sport right there...yes I know there is a female race car driver... but there's also women's basketball...and we all know how we feel about that.
