- I think what we have here is a poll in which Rednecks are the majority.
- I've driven far distances before (Ohio to Florida & back), I don't see how driving a race car could be as physically demanding as an elite golfer.
- All racers do is sit in a car all day. At least golfers are outside, walking around and doing something constructive.
- Racers today, golfers in four more years, we see now how they benefit more
- Sure golf is demanding with torque on your body slinging those clubs but in retrospect a driver of a race car is turning G forces as he travels through
- Race car drivers are just sitting there driving, they are doing nothing else!!!
- Racing car driving has a big effect on your mind and concentration because you have life at steak
- Golfers are fat and lazy
- I have read somewhere that a race car driver's heart rate is around 180 bpm for most of the race. Tell me it's like that playing golf!
- I think racing car drivers make more aggressive moves in what they do
