To each their own. I bought my 8th scale, threw it on the track, and in my first race with it turned 22 laps while still breaking in the motor. (FYI- that's something that nobody else did before or since in buggy.. only truggies have hit 22 laps) Doesn't mean it's boring or easy.. it's just different.
Anyways, I've ran both paved and dirt oval as well. The dirt oval was..boring. I threw a 12th scale on the dirt with the Mini Latemodels that were running brushless and still put lap after lap on them. Dirt oval was just too slow. But like I said, to each their own. I may not like it, and you may not like it, but apparently enough people like it for there to be a market large enough to support companies that focus (almost) solely on dirt oval. CustomWorks has been around since the 80's, so there must be SOMETHING to it. I don't get it and you don't get it, but somebody somewhere does.
Of course, everyone also says "paved oval is easy.. you just turn left". Yes, you do.. and so does everyone else. It's not a matter of just turning left- it's a matter of turning left faster that everyone else and doing it consistently. Pan cars are some of the most tempermental cars to setup and drive properly. They either work or they don't... there's no in-between, sort-of works setup. Just look at the Chili Cookoff- in all of the years that it's been run, this year was the first year that a previous winner won. If oval was so easy, then one driver should have dominated every cookoff. That definately has not been the case.
