  1. Kinda spendy ... but that's one handsome trailer for a racecar to roll down the road upon.. I had one like it. Sponsors loved it. Sure helped me sell racecar decals!
  2. Yes sir, great show. It captured a new audience. That's the future. It's replaying right now on FS1. Note to track designers. The straights are curved. Sure helps produce sideways action...
  3. I don't know anyone familiar with motorsport promotions ... who thinks last nights race was anything ... but a homerun. Huge live & TV audience. Loads of positive post-race publicity! I hope they do it again. Well done NASCAR!
  4. Rodney, we want a huge audience. Great gamble @ the right time. Keep the faith bruddah ... racing can roar back to the frontpage!
  5. I agree, things are looking up @ NASCAR. Let's hope that trend continues? As for Bristol ... nothing ventured, nothing gained. I don't think they belong on dirt either. However, I hope they continue to push the envelope at more venues! Entertainment sells tix. The same ol', same ol' ... gets ignored.
  6. www.PortA.Today - NASCAR Goes Short-Trackin' @ the LA Coliseum! I for one ... will be watching this weekend. Congrats to NASCAR for presenting this concept. NASCAR Cup cars racing for no-points/all bucks ... on a 1/4-mile asphalt short track? They'll be back to money, blood & beer again. Just like the good ol' days! Hope they race hard ... stay safe ... & put on a great show! https://www.motorsport.com/.../guide-nascar.../7857463/
  7. Copy that Reb. Hopefully the ASCS SoTex swing ... produces some strong shows. I prefer wings, but sprint cars almost always shine either way! Thanks for the driver pick! Maybe he'll help out with my grandstand bets?
  8. Yes Reb, back in the day if travel was an issue, I requested a double points show. In return, we offered a stronger purse, plus fuel certificates, sponsored by a local fuel station (and other sponsored perks like food & beer) for every team that entered. That made the 'travel' issue a lot easier to swallow for race teams. Nick, I tried to help some SoTex tracks, but they didn't want to listen so I retired. Now I'm a fulltime beach bum with a website who terrorizes the tourists on an electric fat bike. Life's a beach now!
  9. Never said it was simple Nick. It takes demand for the show, a facility that can host it, a series willing to travel for a purse the track can absorb ... and a sponsor willing to help finance it. I accomplished it around 20 times. It can be done!
  10. Wish we could get some Winged Warriors down here in SoTex. They put on a great show! https://www.porta.today/
  11. I don't know this woman ... have never met her. But I do recognize soul & effort when I see it. Give her your support ... cause she's earned it!
  12. -lol- ... or maybe just stepping up to the pump ... to put his time & skin in the game? Given the struggling health of racing right now, I'm grateful someone has the stones to step forward & help resurrect the US motorsport industry! Mele Kalikimaka y'all...
  13. ... and the list keeps getting shorter & shorter. What a shame!
  14. Yes, It was fun to watch two warriors race 110% all season long. 2022 should be more of the same!
