LA TV Market is huge. They will be back.

We may run out of racers before we do cars.

Nice to see a one car team win the Daytona 500. And anytime that Brad Daugherty can be a Michael Jordan money train, I am all for it. Brad has been passionate about Nascar for a long time.

Jon Garrett is also in the Arca race at Daytona and appears that he is running the full season

Nascar is alive and well. The Daytona 500 is completely sold out. I read where Verizon put over 450,000 feet of cable for wireless connectivity. $27,000,000 purse man, that is big.

good luck man

Dirt is for a parking lot at the asphalt track. I would rather watch paint dry that get dirty

They had a big truck full of ice right by the concession area just south of Torchys tacos. We texted the pump out guy and he was usually there within an hour. Plenty of ice in there

TMS was a weekend destination for a bunch of drunks for a long time. Now that there are shorter weekend races, the drunks stay home and watch it in their garage. But thats ok, Nascar caters to the money crowd, the TV networks. But, I am not sure Texas deserves a race track, we cant even afford new tires here. So we are accustomed to driving to Florida, Alabama and Georgia to watch racing. COTA is awesome and money flows like candy there man. That is why Nascar races there now

His wife probably negotiated his deal.

Pit Bull isnt going to bring any cotton eyed joe music man. But that is ok, you cater to the money. Money pays the bills

Yea, maybe find a happy medium, cut the race down to about 125 laps and only start about 22 cars. But it was an exhibition, so the Party went on under the cautions.

One good thing about it was that it renewed some old rivalries. Kyle Busch is mad at the champ Joey Logano now. I think all but 9 cars were involved in some extra action.

The vibe was awesome at the Clash man. That is like the Old Bristol without the Redneck Music. Nascar is expanding the audience base. You gotta love them stepping outside of the box man. They are taking care of the TV fans man, this is great stuff to watch. Their money is coming from the Networks and they are collaborating with them in doing these exhibitions. It is an investment into the future

The city bought half of the Speedway property and a Food service built a nice facility where the dragstrip was.

There isnt anything going on out there and there will not be any race track

You pretty much hit it on the head Josh. As much as I hate to say it, that racer at Kyle pretty much ruined it for asphalt racing in Texas and I dont blame the track owners. Heck, Texas dont even support TMS. So get used to traveling if you want to see it in person. But I would just assume watch it on TV and Racing America is cheap. I wish Race on Texas would get right on their prices

HMS is the perfect spot for it here in Texas. Large Corp base to pull sponsorship from. The Oil guys have money to burn right now. If they would bring late model racing there, people would pay attention. I doubt with the current lineup they will get the attention needed to attract Corp sponsorship like was there before when they had a great class of Late Models.

All that we need is for HMP to bring John M back. He had that place rocking because that is how he made his living.

June Bug, Jeff Burton, Kevin Harvick and Justin Marks bought the CARS tour. Things are looking good in Late Model Asphalt racing. They are not requiring used Junk $30 tires. You can buy brand new Hoosiers and let the Show begin

With the proper team behind a race track, there is plenty of money available to succeed. Did anyone witness COTA this year? They sold 7 million dollars worth of booze in November. We just need people to step up and quit crying about $175 tires. That is just a round of drinks at COTA.

Unfortunately, the radio market is aging and rapidly shrinking as digital social media takes over.

Does anyone have a Radio anymore? LOL

The best way to get outsiders involved is to give away about 200 to 300 tickets per race to people that have never been. It is important not to give them away to people who have been, or are already paying customers. Pick different groups, like the Chamber of Commerce, High School Bands, Little League Teams, etc. People who will come as a group. You will get some hooked on it.

yes, there are lots of other things to do that are way more fun than hanging out in junkyards to support your hobby. I would rather be like that guy that is the arrive and drive type. Give them their $120,000 grand and show up with a clean crisp driving suit, clean fingernails and hot chicks and lets go racing boys
