Really... ignorant about NASCAR?

Let's see, a NASCAR originating team (Chip-Gannasi) just won LeMans using a Ford. Which hasn't been in the race for 40 years; kicking Farrari's arse with ease. Other endurance drivers which have been winners (Corvette teams) also race in NASCAR. Such as Dale Earnhardt Jr.

F1 Racing.. really? You know who will win the race by the 3rd lap. I see more passing in the hallways of a retirement home. Not to mention the yellow flag rules in Europe, don't exactly make things exciting.

NASCAR isn't regional. It's followed all over North America, Australia and a few other regional countries.

American owned racing teams or drivers are at the top of quite a few racing leagues. Even those which run all over Europe. Including rally cross.

Finally, it isn't just a NASCAR team which can be ignorant to computer security. Many corporations throughout the world fall victim to this without backups.

It doesn't take a genius to yell out "NO backups, stupid?". So really.
