Q: 500 kilometers? What gives?

A: Shhh! No, using the metric system to determine race distances doesn't seem to jibe with this week's stunning red state-centric cultural revolution. But perhaps by quietly switching race distances from miles to kilometers, NASCAR could shorten most of its races � something a few people in the garage believe would lead to more intense, exciting shows � without anybody really noticing.
