NAASCAR is a bunch of cars repeadetdly going in circles with no betting involved but thier events are huge and sponsors pour in the big money. If Horse racing can continue getting real sponsors (not Pat's Horse Pellets), it can be bigger than NAASCAR.

maybe eventually. nascar keeps going south...so anything could happen. between the two, i'd rather get my ass beaten than have to watch a nascar race.
did watch the f-1 from montreal the other day tho...but 70 laps is a lot easier to stick to.

All I know is that I'm mentoring a STEM teaching thing this week, and when I asked the kids if they'd seen the Belmont, a third of the hands went up and they were excited to talk about it. These are 1st, 2nd and 3rd graders.
