Some of the responses to the picture from the Masters brought the following to mind for me when I ran across this image: For as much as I love horse racing, sports in general and any excuse to tailgate, you'd think I'd get NASCAR, but I just don't. Tell me why you love it, and why I should start watching. Is it the action during the race or the drivers' personalities that sucks you in? Or something else?
