• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

NASCAR does spend tons on promotions and publicity. It's not just racing, it is a show and it is entertaining.

And aimed at the low end of the food chain!
Seriously, I found myself at the final round of the 'V8 Supercars' last weekend and wanted to grab the promoter by the ears and panel beat a few cars with his face!!
Side-show Alley at the Ag Show had nothing on the amount of junk merchandise, bimbos in mini outfits, dog and pony shows, all with nothing connected to motor racing.
I suppose the 'XXXX Hookers' are associated via the sponsor but I want to see the racing, not a group of dumb blondes (trust me, they are!) 'dancing' badly on the back of a flat bed truck!!
The 'Racing' is supposed to be the entertainment, not a support act.

Been a long weekend and I always come away from Sydney feeling pissed.
Must be time for my medication!!
