DifferentialEquation 04/13/20 2:32:03 PM #9:	No. It definitely requires a lot of skill and a very good understanding of one's car to win, but it has nothing to do with athleticism.

DevsBro 04/13/20 5:02:12 PM #17:	No, on a technicality. You gotta imagine it's taxing af to deal with the acceleration forces but I think athletics is more specific than just general physical feats.

VipaGTS 04/13/20 5:05:58 PM #19:	There's nothing athletic about it but it does take skill that needs to be learned and trained.
