We had the tickets and everything all ready to go. Well, a few days before the trip one of the guys got in trouble for domestic violence. One of the guys we were supposed to interview! Of course we cancelled the trip. Now I know that one guy can't be made representative of the whole sport, but I still get a little icky feeling whenever I think about NASCAR. Doesn't help that the jerk cost us some money in addition to being a wife beating SOB.

But hey, building your own car and having the reflexes to drive it, that's pretty cool.
You know,as is with anything,I wouldnt let a few rotten apples spoil anything you may have an interest for.The funny thing is, is if he races in Ohio chances are I might now them.I dont know If I want to find out because I might like them and I might lose all respect for them.I dont believe in hitting women,anyone who hits a women, out of their own control,Is not a man in my opinion.
