Thumbs up FIRST = Racing?

Does anyone see the resemblance between FIRST & NASCAR (or auto racing in general)? Difference= FIRST is educational.

No, I'm not completely crazy. But come on. We have sponsors like Delphi, Chrysler, GM, FORD, Siemens, Motorola, DuPont... (I'm not going to list them all). We deal in large amounts of money and with the CEO, Presidents etc. of companies. You have your high budgeted teams and low budgeted teams. Your regionals can be like the littler races Atlanta, Richmond, Texas etc. And the Nationals is like the Indy 500 or Daytona, the ultamate dream to win. FIRST is undergrowing tremendous growth as is NASCAR. You know that our BEST days are yet to come. Each day we are getting one step closer to Dean's ultimate of FIRST becomming a household name.


Dave-O~ who hopes he didn't look like a COMPLETE idiot because he attempted to say something halfway intelligent.
