As of now, I do not have a word for word thesis statement; however, the thesis will introduce the ideas of complexity and the unknown of NASCAR. The article I analyzed explains the science behind certain features that make NASCAR the sport that it is. The features talked about include: safety, tires, engine, and fuel. This is only scratching the surface of what makes a car and a team. The article is very detailed with numbers, but the basic idea for each is simple to grasp. The safety equipment protects the driver by constraining him the seat and protecting him from fires, the tires are specially made for each track and situation, the engine is specially made for speed, and the fuel is specific to only the NASCAR series. The specific fuel used is match with the components of the car. This overlaps into safety and and the components of the engine. These are the basic overviews of the complex features. Over the years, engines and safety equipment were changed due to accidents. When changing these features, engineers made sure to specially make equipment and fuel unique just for these type of cars. The sport has become more complex over the last couple of decades because of certain situations. The article focuses of the science of the car only, but there is more going on outside of the car as well which is just as important. The article also explains that this science goes unknown and explains why the science is so significant for each race.

Page 1: Ethnography Research Stage 2

As of now, I do not have a word for word thesis statement; however, the thesis will intro-duce the ideas of complexity and the unknown of NASCAR. The article I analyzed explains the science behind certain features that make NASCAR the sport that it is. The features talked about include: safety, tires, engine, and fuel. This is only scratching the surface of what makes a car and a team. The article is very detailed with numbers, but the basic idea for each is simple to grasp. The safety equipment protects the driver by constraining him the seat and protecting him from fires, the tires are specially made for each track and situation, the engine is specially made for speed, and the fuel is specific to only the NASCAR series. The specific fuel used is match with the components of the car. This overlaps into safety and and the components of the engine. These are the basic overviews of the complex features. Over the years, engines and safety equip-ment were changed due to accidents. When changing these features, engineers made sure to spe-cially make equipment and fuel unique just for these type of cars. The sport has become more complex over the last couple of decades because of certain situations. The article focuses of the science of the car only, but there is more going on outside of the car as well which is just as im-portant. The article also explains that this science goes unknown and explains why the science is so significant for each race.
