How the hell would this even matter? Could he turn left better than someone else?

The one thing is that driving in any major racing series does take a lot out of your body and your mind. Driving 400-500 miles, 36 races a year, for 3 to 5hours a hour, plus all the practice and testing, at speeds that can peak to 180 mph, does require a certain strength and stamina. It might not be the same type of requirements that a NFL or MLB player might need, but you do need certain physical skills.

The Cup and F1 drivers work pretty hard to keep themselves in condition.

They play so loose with the rules as it is. Nothing really suprises me about NASCAR anymore.

It's stupid to care about current NASCAR drivers doping, because OMG Dale Earnhardt took greenies.

This made me laugh.

Am I a troll if I say that you have to be doped up to care about NASCAR in the first place?

I would need to have a lot of Xanax (sp?) and eye staples to even make it through a match/competition/race or whatever. I remember my grandpa Schmidt (awesome man) making me watch that crap. I got so bored I spent hours catching praying mantises and putting them in Ball jars. Then I tried to mate them. Unfortunately, when they mated, the chick mantis killed the male.

I only wish she could have killed NASCAR.
