Should there be Blacks in NASCAR ???

Well???

That's a dumb question. If they've got the skills, then it's no big deal. But if they're there for "quotas" or "diversity", then that's pure stupidity and could lead to the deaths of other people.

nascar doesn't really ban blacks. it's just not many blacks are interested in nascar.

If they are there for quotas or diversity only, wouldn't it be immediately evident by their driving skills?

Anyone is allowed as long as they have the skills.

You never see a black swimmer. Hardly ever see a black race car driver in any league. Black pro bass fishermen? Nope.

I never saw a black swimmer. Until now.

Pro bowling, billiards, 9-ball, trick shooting, just some more pro sports that you seldom see a black participating in.

Several black anglers have competed on the CITGO Bassmaster circuit over the years, but none have enjoyed the success of the Arizona pro, who has five top-10 finishes to his credit.

Nobody said there were none at all, just that there aren't very many.
