Having driven shifter karts on a couple occasions I can tell you this, that ANY type of racing at high speeds is by far the most strenous sport you can participate in. The mental tenacity as well as physical fitness these guys requre to run hundred's of laps is amazing, in our first shifter kart session we ran a total of 50 laps with no more than 12 laps at a time and after 12 laps I was close to exhaustion. True Nascar may not be the most exciting sport to watch but any auto-racing is a full out blast to participate in.
