While I'm no fan of NASCAR, I respect the talent of the teams and drivers involved. Like any racing, it takes gobs of engineering, technical, and driving expertise to turn a "spec silhouette" into a winning combination. Optimizing a car/driver to hang it out over the edge lap after lap...there's nothing unreal about the competition, here.
Just bores me to tears, though, going round in circles for hours on end in what I consider boring cars. I'd much rather watch Grand Am Cup or SWC.
