Because I use my brain. I live 30 minutes from West Virginia. 17 years of living around rednecks has showed me (with absolutely zero exceptions) that way of life is VERY similar to each other.
How exactly is this proof Nascar fans don't play GT, though?
Wait, why am I asking. You don't have that kind of evidence, and there's no way you can prove it.
No, I'm not comparing it to what people say, I'm comparing it to what knowledgeable people say. It's not like I've been there to see them design the car, and I doubt you have either.
So, the choice of wording makes Nascar folks unprofessional, and unintelligent?
Referring to them as mechanics does NOT make them unintelligent because guess what, they're RIGHT. A Mechanic is someone who is skilled in making, using, or repairing machines, vehicles, and tools which is exactly what the team does.
If someone wanted to, they could call Formula 1 drivers calling their mechanics engineers wrong, as an engineer refers to several different definitions, such as managing an enterprise, operating an engine, or one who is trained in a branch of engineering.
Mechanic is easily a better term for referring to race car engineers as the definition is not as broad. Both series, though, are correct in what they call them.
Higher maybe, but not necessarily better. Which series has more technologically advanced cars? Which one has more advanced aerodynamics?
The Nascars may not be as
technologically advanced, but that's due to the rules. The rules state there can not be any form of electronic except analog. Unlike some racing series, a computer does not work with a Nascar. It is all driver control, and because there are no electronics, a Nascar is considered 1 of the toughest vehicles to drive. There's absolutely no ABS or computerized engine controls. 60 pages out of the 90 page rule book specifically tell teams what technology is and isn't allowed.
I don't mind having one, but I think if they do, it should just be 1 base car, with different paint jobs to match different manufacturers.
So, we can't have different Nascars, but several R34 GT-Rs where the only difference between them is smaller than the difference between 2 Nascars of different manufacturers is fine?
That's 1 more driver's opinion, and 1 more magazine than you have bothered to prove me otherwise.
Why do I have to proof anything? You're the one who claimed there were several TV shows, magazines, and books by racing drivers, and you've only showed 2, neither of which is a TV show.
That isn't the point, though. The ratio of pro-Nascar is more than likely higher than anti-Nascar stuff. But yet, you feel the minor folks should be given what they want. I think the same should apply to the small amount of folks who don't want 20 Skyline GT-Rs.
That isn't what he meant. He meant that there is little real preparation involved in testing and improving the car, they just show up at a track and run laps.
He's still an ignorant fool, then. Like him, you must not know just how much preparation does go into a Nascar. When you're able to set your ignorance aside, go look at what happens during the off-season.
NASCAR has a huge fanbase, it's going to have pro-nascar clothing, what's your point?
You said I've seen the clothes that are anti-Nascar. No, I haven't except for 2, and those 2 are nothing compared to the higher ratio of clothes that are pro-Nascar.
If they don't fall into those categories, they aren't rednecks. It's a word used to describe those types of individuals.
That's not the point. You're sterotyping that Nascar fans are all beer-guzzling rednecks.
And just for the record, here's a def. of redneck.
A slang term, usually for a rural white southerner who is politically conservative, racist, and a religious fundamentalist (see fundamentalism). This term is generally considered offensive. It originated in reference to agricultural workers, alluding to how the back of a person's neck will be burned by the sun if he works long hours in the fields.
Again, please tell me how you know these are white southerners who are racist, religious fundamentalists, or politically conservative.
And if we wanted to go by the assumption of rednecks being fat, beer-drinking folks who live in trailer parks and promote incest, I'd love to know how you know all those people are of that definition as well.
The Cracker pretty much got that one spot-on.
The Cracker's response is not a serious one, as I doubt TheCracker is a sterotype. You on the other hand, are. You have no proof from that photo that all those people are rednecks.
The United States population's average IQ is 98.
Then I guess you, me, and everyone in the US is a beer guzzling redneck since that is what Nascar represents according to you.
So when did popularity define how technologically advanced something was?
You weren't talking about how technologically advanced Nascar is. You're claiming F1 folks are more professional when they call their mechanics engineers, even though mechanic is the actual term of a F1 engineer.
I don't see what your point is with F1 drivers moving to NASCAR.
You claim F1 is full of professionalism, and that Nascar isn't. Why would a F1 driver go into a "primitive" sport, then?
Your posts are starting to reek of being uninformed, and poorly-made assumptions of people you don't know.
