why??

Rally, road racing, hill climb, etc. are not popular here. There are comparitively little courses for these things. Motorsports in Colorado is especially struggling. The only thing that gets any TV coverage is NASCAR and drag racing...because that's where the money is.

nascar is boring... they only drive the samecircuit, and in rally,... you can make your own things...
and drag... *hmm* ... for road cars yes, but this is also not my favourite... i like it more, when we drive rallys or some like this

Exactly my point...our motorsports are boring

It is true there are some rally events in America, here in Colorado we even have our own rally track, but it struggles to stay open. And when you mention rally or road racing to the average person here they will just say "what is that??" or "is that like NASCAR??" :rolleyes:
