I'm still not certain what nascar is. Except that cars are involved.

I suppose I'll have to look it up some day.

It's pretty much just a bunch of people taking left turns on a more oval shaped race track. At least that's my understanding of it.

It gets real exciting when they turn left for the 50th time, too. /s

I can see why it's so popular.

I'd watch these but I'm afraid of being very disappointed when they turn out not to be narrated by Sam O'Nella....

Guns. I suspect guns would be involved.

I think at the end he forgot he was meant to get a person round (dead or alive). I guess you could cremate the person before beginning and maglev the remains round, as long as you can argue that it's still a person (minus all the water, anyway).
