Well, I've been a racing fan for quite some time. Haven't missed an Indianapolis 500 in 12 years and I've attending multiple Nascar races here and there.

The Daytona 500 is a spectacular event however Nascar is slowly declining due to sponsors backing out and events not selling out like they should. Both of the Gatorade Duel races were photo finishes and involved some excellent entertainment. If there is one Nascar race to watch this year, it's this one.

I plan on catching about 75% of the race while flipping back and forth with basketball and other sports....

The sad thing for Nascar, their "Super Bowl" is the first race of the season.....

With lukewarm interest, will watch some. Not because it's must see TV, but because there's no NFL Sunday...........

We have a NASCAR pool at work, so that keeps my interest some, buddies have a big party for it(in the years that they don't go down there) so I might stop by there too. Between those 2 things that probably adds up to me watching about 50 laps or so
