Cubic dollars will eventually take over about any motor sport, it's just the nature of competition. Once the sport gets expensive the whole nature of it changes, and sometimes the crowds or fans change. Read some of the articles about cheating in NASCAR, it's almost a Spy VS Spy relationship, NASCAR writes a rule, the teams exploit holes in the rule and NASCAR re-writes the rule.

After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents.
