I'm from Detroit, but I can't STAND that track in a car without wings.
Indycar, IRL, fine. 1967 cars or Nascar? Fugedaboutit...

Damn - Nazareth is too narrow for an INDY car! I can't imagine running NASCAR

Hey! Here's my chance to combine two different threads into one. I
saw in some racing catalog today that for a puny $125(us funds) you can have
