If you think NASCAR drivers are athletes, you are either dumb, stupid or ignorant.

See, I can play that game too!

His heart rate was 130 for the event, which is comparable to an endurance runner except that the Coke 600 lasts twice as long as a marathon would.


So, lets see him run a marathon and see how long he lasts?

Maybe two or three miles before he quits.

To compare a race car driver to a marathon runner is ridiculous.

So now only marathoners are athletes? What about drivers that run marathons, are they athletes too?

That said I think you're right, there's no way a runner could withstand a full race.



I dont doubt drivers can do athletic stuff on their own...but they are FEATURED ON ESPN FOR DRIVING A CAR WHEN ITS HOT AND THEY GO REAL FAST.

Ive never watched a marathon on tv...did Cole Trickle place or finish?

Drivers are athletes; racing is not a sport.
