Why do some people think that Nascar racing is a sport?
I mean all they do is drive around a track like 300 times, I know that they are skilled drivers but they're not doing any physical activity like running, walking,etc. It just doesn't make sense to me when people claim that Nascar is sport, when all the drivers have to do is slide through the window.

Try going 300 times in a racecar on the track. You will be lucky if you can stand the pressure on you mind and body for 100 of those. It is physical activity. Try it some time- go to the Richard Petty Drivers School or one like it. You will change your mind fast. As far as being a "sport" it is more demanding than football or basketball or baseball. Try it before you knock it. As far as the other posters- you do not know what you are talking about.
