One of my GRIPS is the availability of autographs, in Nascar the drivers are very free with signing autographs, other sports its very hard to get one, the sports figures do-not make themselves available like Nascar drivers do. So my answer to you (in my opinion) is its a people sport.
Since NASCAR has had only one casualty (Dale Earnhardt Sr.), then I believe that blood sports is more deadly. Nascar has had its fair share of fatalities over the years. Dale Sr. was just the latest one.
Just about any country that has tv watches it. It is one of the most popular sports in the world.

EA Sports will not be making another Nascar game for 2010. Another company may make one. There won't be a NASCAR 2010, due to the current economic crisis going on now. EA Games's license for selling NASCAR games has also ended, so we will not see a NASCAR 10.
One famous sports figure in 1990 was Derrick Thomas, who was with the Kansas City Chiefs. Another famous sports figure was Dale Earnhardt, who was the NASCAR Champion.
Jamie is a very cool person. He is one of the most down-to-earth people i personally know.
It's not a fair comparison. Put one baseball game on tv in one city and a Nascar race in the same city, Nascar would bring in more out-of-towners, generate more revenue for that city & state, and Nascar out-seats MLB, Nascar has more TV viewers. Let's be real in our comparisons.AnswerProbably MLB in most US cultures. however in the southern region statistics have shown racing sports to be more popularUPDATE!Since the late nineteenth century, baseball has been regarded as the national sport; football, basketball, and ice hockey are the country's three other leading professional team sports.
