If watching things repeatedly going in circles doesn’t make you dizzy, and the smell of gas, oil, and burning rubber is a turn-on, the Ford 400 can fulfill your needs. This Sunday, Homestead-Miami Speedway will host the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series season finale, and Jimmie Johnson, who has won the past three titles, is seeking a fourth. Also contending: Mark Martin and Jeff Gordon, along with 39 other guys and their not-so-stock Chevys, Toyotas, Fords, and Dodges. The green flag waves at 2:30 p.m. Sunday, with single-day tickets starting at $55. Need a three-day fix? Friday’s Camping World Truck Series finale costs $35 for a single-day ticket, and Saturday’s Nationwide Series finale is $40.
