I think road cycling and Nascar are about on par when it comes to TV watchability. For me, Crits are more fun than Nascar to watch live. Standing out on a road course to watch 'em roll by once is pretty lame live sport entertainment, well below Nascar.
The World Track Championships were way better TV entertainment than Nascar could ever even dream of being, IMO.
DH, DS and 4X are way better too.
