It's all a matter of taste. I doubt I'd go watch these cars if they were racing out in my backyard.

Hopefully I will get to do some races in Super GT someday.

There are two classes in Japan, GT500 and GT300. Actually the GT300 class is more interesting with a huge variety of cars. There are a number of European drivers that you will see in this series that chose to go to Japan to earn a decent wage rather than scrounging for sponsorship to buy a ride in Europe or America.

I get all the races from a contact straight from TV in Japan, but I heard some of them are on youtube now.

Soap Box Derby is more fun than NASCAR.

Never been circle track fan at all. Wow, did you see that guy? He just made his 236th left turn. Booooring, to say the least. Sure someone will defend it by saying there is tactic and endurance involved, I don't doubt that, but boy it sure is mind numbing to watch.
Nascar would be something I would watch if they would get some real tracks with twists and turns. Also maybe get some faster cars. There are stock exotic's that would out race those Nascars.
I respect that it's a U.S. past time, so I'm not knocking it, just think it could be better.

Montreal, Sonoma and Watkins Glen are road courses which host NASCAR. I am not a fan of oval tracks either. I don't watch NASCAR anyhow.
