I drove my new Element to the Texas NASCAR race today!

Boy did I get some funny looks :lol:

Walking out after the race my son and I counted 14 Hondas in the lot....14 with over 200,000 people there! (granted I couldn't see the whole parking lot! ) Not many redneck honda drivers...except me!

I traded in a 2001 Dodge Ram ...the gas was eating me alive...so this was my first time out with my brethern...hmmm better be careful where I park...

It will be better at the Indy Car race in June...there will be Hondas on the track that day!

Love NASCAR! :D Go to a race in Michigan every year. Lot of Hondas there.

Watched the Texas race on TV. Quite the crowd. Awsome! :!:

I try to go to a race or two each year. You see a wide range of vehicles there from bmw's to rusted out pickup trucks. Nascar has really widened it's fan base.

If you like going to NASCAR races, Bristol is a must. I was there in 2000 and had a blast.

I've been to Bristol. It sure is one of the most popular tracks. But personally, I like bigger tracks. I like racing, not bumping and grinding. Don't go to a race for the wrecks.

Sitting up high at Britol is like looking down into a pot of boiling spaghetti. Or like one of the commentators said at the last race, a conveyor belt. Sure difficult to follow who's where. But yes, every one should go at least once.

That woud be a neat meet, maybe after the olympics in NH or NY? [I'm a fan, I don't have a schedule though. Guess I'm not a Nascar Dad, then again I don't have kids either.]
