I haven't looked to see if this has been brought up before, but is car racing really a "sport"? I concede that it's a skill and competitive, but in my opinion sports involve a combined mental and physical exertion. There isn't a category for car racing on this site, that must say something

I love Gray's style since he goes in and asks these awful questions (Pete Rose) and has this deadpan, no-charisma delivery that makes you think that someone is just feeding questions into his earpiece. It's like a contest between the producers to see who can get Jim to say the most of the wall crap.

Rule change boosts Fords to front of field.
Interesting article gyc, thanks. I'm not one of those "anyone can drive a car around a track people", I just have a hard time thinking of race car driving as a sport. After all, much of the performace relies on the equipment (the same could probably by said for tennis and golf though, and definitely for cyclying).
