road courses are the best. turning left all the time just gets a bit dull. theres not as much weight tranfer, etc. duno, i just like road courses. id love to see Cup cars run the old Nurburgring..

I remember seeing one of the guys running accross the track with a fire extinguisher to help out a crash and got litterally cut to pieces by an f1 car.

I love racing the road corses in my Nascar game. It's fun troughing a 3800lb stock car around. I think nascar needs more road courses and it looks like the Cup series will be visiting Mexico City next year.

I also don't like the fact that Nascar is taking dates from tracks like Darlington and removing tracks from the scedule like Rockingham and giving them to boring ass tracks like Texas and California and Vegas.

No it was a street course. It may have been a CART race.

Also the guy in the IRL wreck at Texas survived and is still racing.
