I'm a huge race facefan too so I completely don't mind. In fact, the sheer reality that she (and you) (1) knows that Paul Newman races and (2) actually cares that he in fact races something other than NASCAR pleases me infinitely. :D
In fact, I was just at a race in Birmingham last weekend. HUGE RACE FAN!!!!
Real or Photoshop?
[eta: Nevermind, I just noticed the URL on the image. D'oh!]
Still pretty funny, though.

So... Which series do you follow? And why am I only finding this out at the Very End of the season?????
Also, you can quiz Trudy, she is quite knowledgable. And it is fun.
It is SO much fun.
My name is Trudy. I watch open wheel in bars. On the phone with Cass.
Wow. Paul Newman - racecar driver and salad dressing connoisseur....
I place the blame squarely where it belongs: Firefly.
If a single show is to be blamed for the industry-wide trend of abandoning theme songs, I think Enterprise would be the far likelier candidate.
Are you a NASCAR fan, Cass, or ... another kind of racing?
I copyedited six or seven books about NASCAR drivers and races and history for HarperCollins about eight years ago, and I was surprised to find myself turning on the races just to see the people I'd read so much about.
Hmmmm. How to answer this question? Let's see. I follow mostly IMSA related venues (i.e. GrandAm, ALMS, etc.), and I *attend* most HSR events. I've actually met Paul. Very nice man. Most beautiful blue eyes. (They really are as blue as they seem on screen). ::sigh::
::returns hug to Cass::
And, I of course follow F1 as well.
And all this time I thought Cass was obsessed by horse racing.

Wow, an IMSA fan. Nice to meet you! Swoopy sports cars are just so much fun. Especially in enduros.
I am open wheel's bitch. Champ (which I have typed as CART twice now...), IRL after not following it for a while, and F1 along with their support series.
And, I of course follow F1 as well.
As you should. Next year should be fascinating. I'm rather hoping Kimi gets to show how good (I think) he is. And maybe gets some media skills. A girl can dream...

NASCAR is my methadone. They start racing before anyone else and their season lasts longer. So I end up following them but not obsessively.
Next year might be different since I am sorta intrigued by Juan Pablo Montoya switching disciplines so completely.
And all this time I thought Cass was obsessed by horse racing.
Heh. No, I just think horsies are pretty and fun to ride. Plei is the one who knows horse racing, or used to follow it at least. I am all about the horse
power.
