NASCAR: Full Speed

It's clear it's supposed to be a repeat of the success of drive to survive. Just simply doesn't have the same magic, it looks to appeal to the American NASCAR audience but not quite anyone else.

I tried to watch it as an Australian, who's never really seen NASCAR as interesting and thought it may be fun to see what it's all about. It's very American, entertaining but just not as amazing as other motorsports. It's good to see what happens behind closed doors and it's made and produced well despite missing the mark to appeal to outsiders like drive to survive does. Not the worst but not close to the best.

As a huge automotive enthusiast, but only a casual race fan l, I watch just about anything car related. A few years back I stumbled onto Drive to Survive and I've been hooked on that show and F1 ever since. I saw this pop up as a suggestion, and was hoping for more of the D2S magic.

Nope.

This is 5 episodes of them trying to figure the D2S formula out and tie it to NASCAR, but they never quite do. All of the drivers come off as pompous jerks, and each episode is basically a rehash of the previous episode, meaning they are all the same. They focus on the playoffs with almost no backstory, then try to build the tension of who will win? Who cares? They all kind of suck and you don't learn anything about them of substance. This one just never gets off the starting line.

They did it, they really did it, Netflix and NASCAR have knocked it out of the park or should I say crossed the finish line with this series! NASCAR: Full Speed is awesome!! This series truly does an amazing job capturing the action, speed, power, passion and the personalities throughout this amazing sport. Each episode does a great job capturing the behind the scenes and what the drivers go through each race weekend and it shows the kind of human they really are instead of being behind the wheel doing what they love. With all that said, the best part of this entire series is that it portrays NASCAR the right way possible. For a while, NASCAR was portrayed as this goofy sport of men driving in circles over and over again, but however, this series burns it down to the ground as it shows the kind of sport it really is, it's not only about racing on circles, but it's about teamwork, dreams, trust, heart, skill, passion and also, danger. In conclusion, NASCAR: Full Speed is amazing, the series does a great job at capturing the essence of this sport, the personalities around it, the speed and thrill captured beautifully, but most of all, it portrayed the sport the greatest way possible. If you are a NASCAR Fan or not, then this show is a MUST WATCH!! NASCAR: Full Speed is a winner!

For "excitement" and PARTYNEXTDOOR. Undisputed and uninterrupted not for only the use in a Starbucks however, in love with the aesthetic for personal recommendations alone. Consider my imaginations lucky using Netflix to house me at the 16 floor through security in vault with letter and intents to nurture forum and display of hospitality. The nature in reference to yelp & shoe column having only drinks to look forward to and yes, I am a fall guy. In nature I support the following to enjoy poker using less gas and oil a wish come true. Nevertheless a display of fortitude during transition in sphere like audiences. I play for a ring :)

This docuseries does have a few interesting personalities to watch, and the racing is sometimes interesting, but it is boring and repetitive in five short episodes. Mostly, this is due to the nature of the sport. They really do just drive around in circles. It's a stereotype that happens to be true. While there is certainly a lot of money in Nascar, it pales in comparison to F1. In F1, the big teams can spend a half a billion dollars per year. This leads to investing in making the cars as fast as they can possibly go within the rules, and in Nascar the cars still have to look like cars, if that makes sense. I think the drivers, are very talented, but they are so American. It would be interesting to see how they would do in F1 and how F1 drivers would do in Nascar.
