We're in for a treat. I've attended all the great sporting events man has to offer, and none of them compare to the atmosphere at a big race. It's a big party that invites everyone. You don't have to know all that much to enjoy a good race. As fans, men have no advantage over women.
Auto racing is the great equalizer.
We've all done it. It's not like football or baseball, where a keen understanding of strategy significantly enhances your enjoyment. Oh, sure, today you'll hear a bunch of confusing terminology from the TV talking heads about restrictor plates and drafting and aerodynamics. But racing is a lot like eating at Gates. You don't need to know everything that comes with a Presidential Plate to enjoy a short end.
