you can see the entire field of a CART event at an oval race as well.....
don't compare a CART street race to an oval NASCAR race......
do you think you can see every turn of the NASCAR race at "the glen"????

If you think F-1 pit stops are easier than CART I disagree. Just watch the Monaco race sometime. There is not enough room to scratch your nose, but they get the job done. Yes it is true, often the F-1 pits have fewer cars, and this is a characteristic, not a weakness.
#3- And I was just making a joke.

also, this whole 5 second lap time difference, i believe, was the difference between schumacher's quickest lap and the quickest qualifying lap in CART....like i implied before, i don't think the BAR-Honda, Toyota, Jaguar or whatever else would be 5 seconds quicker than the champ cars.......
2. monaco is just one example.....it's WAY more prevalent in CART.....the nose part was hillarious
3. i know.

[B]...when the race started, and we were sitting in Turn X, once the first few laps were over and the field spread out, it was b-o-r-i-n-g. At least from a casual spectator standpoint. They'd emerge from the trees, come around the turn, and disappear around the trees again. One at a time. So there we are. Car goes screaming by (hey cool!) then silence...another car...then more silence. I'm sorry but I just couldn't get into that. My next experience was also in 1996 at the NASCAR race in Richmond Va. This fall race is run under the lights...hearing 43 engines start and proceed to run around that track is amazing. Close racing, passing, pit strategy, it was awesome. I was hooked.

More than 2 and less than 4 H's,
See. A little bit of open conversation and we can get to the point of mutually respecting other people's interests. By doing this, we both open our minds to the other situation. As a result, we both grow our level of knowledge and maturity. Now BLOW ME! I'm right!!! AHAHAHAAAA j/k.
