NASCAR Day - May 16

NASCAR - National Association for Stock Car Auto Racing
NASCAR's headquarters are located in Daytona Beach, Florida.
One of the most viewed professional sports in terms of
television ratings in the United States.
Football comes in first.
Stock car racing in the United States has its origins in bootlegging during Prohibition, when drivers ran bootleg whiskey made primarily in the Appalachian region of the United States. Bootleggers needed to distribute their illicit products, and they typically used small, fast vehicles to better evade the police. Many of the drivers would modify their cars for speed and handling, as well as increased cargo capacity, and some of them came to love the fast-paced driving down twisty mountain roads.
Prohibition ended but the desire for fast racing goes on.
Watch a good stock car race today.
