I have a serious love/hate relationship with Wikipedia! When I read an article that intrigues me, and it links to something else I want to check out, I will start reading and I don’t realize that an hour and a half has just passed until I come up for air. I can start on something innocent, like reading about reviews of a recent movie that’s released, and wind up finishing in an article about the Treaty of Versailles or String Theory.
Having grown up in West Virginia, everyone around me loved NASCAR. I never got it. You are
Not Solaris VII, But Similar Enough to Inspire Me
driving around in a circle for a few hours. That’s not really something that appeals to me. Why would I want to watch that? Who cares? Even with NASCAR being the second most watched sport in America right now, it’s still not my thing, and I doubt it ever will be. I’m not a NASCAR guy.
So I’ve never really understood the world behind NASCAR. But then I read that wikipedia article, and 77 minutes later, a lot of things changed. I saw just how closely a lot of the NASCAR teams and companies really dovetail with a lot of the fluff on Solaris VII. I grew inspired by it, and now I’m looking to try out a new S7 campaign with some ideas from NASCAR to flesh out the stable system a little more.
What do I like about it? Let’s take a look!
