And you'd be hard pressed to find a single person who can drive tacks like some of those little girls do with those air rifles.

There's a bit more to it than a left hand turn.

I've been a marksmanship instructor and competative shooter in the USAF.A NASCAR fan since 1979 who has met and spoken at length with several drivers both from the top series to locals.My next statement does come with some knowledge and authority on both subjects to say the least.

Comparing shooting to driving a race car by implying that the only skill you need to race is the ability to turn left is foolish.Shooting and driving are two different thing altogether,each is difficult in its own way.

Lets put in a way that's familiar to you,sailing and shooting."There's more to shooting than putting a boat in the water and letting the wind push it around."Having worked for Jerry Kirby for 15yrs I know better than that but you get the idea.The two just can't be compared.

To get back on subject fishing would be cool to see but I don't think it'll happen.

As far any type of motorsports involving cars just isn't going to happen.The logistics and expense of trying put that type of event together are mind blowing.
