Both forms are difficult to extract maximum performance from and hey I'm pretty sure Tony and Lewis will have a great time and thats all that really matters isn't it?Not really. Lewis and Tony enjoying themselves has absolutely no impact on us at all. I mean, I'm sure Lewis enjoys himself when he's with Nicole Scherzinger. Doesn't mean I care.

Quite a loaded question there. Flame bait as well.
Anyway, here is my take on it. I grew up with a father who would watch nascar. I would try and watch it as a kid and the only time it was ever interesting to me was when they would crash. Not the greatest start of a fan base for me. After watching 2010's season and some of 1994 and some of 1988, even through all these eras there is the same monotonous droning in both sports.
Given this, you are talking about droning around a course, difference is one is high speed oval one is a series of high speed corners, straights, and sudden low speed bends. I don't doubt nascar takes talent and balls of steel, but I find it hilarious that NASCAR dares to use the word STOCK in their title.
Anyway side from this, I have a question, is this swap for a race? Like Lewis will be in a real race and Stewart will be in a real GP? Or is this just a show off session or like a test? Will it be televised?

sgh wrote:haha, fair enoughOh god, now I see what you meant, no I didn't meant like hamilton would take a stock car against f1 cars I meant is he driving a nascar in a nascar race, however after looking closer and noticing there was a link to the story (which I overlooked like a moron lol) it is just a promo thing.)
there is no way they'd swap for an actual race.
especially from the F1 side.
I think in NASCAR you get points for completing labs, and there are about 40 races, so that's a bit feasible i suppose
