LynchFan you just said it all when you said " Nascar had always said finding the teams sponsors was not in their mandate."
We should all get xboxs and race online!!!! that way we dont "phsyco" analize everything!! I dont know about the other corporate sponsors, but our team was backed by corporate A&W for the first time this year, before we had a local franchisee (wyatt mcmurray) who owns 14 A&W s in the west. And he has been bangin on the corp door for years, he beleives in motorsports marketing. Without being able to show them Nascars demographic studies and videos and such....they would have laughed us to the curb. i will say i had a meeting with them last week and they loved hosting the two events in barrie and vernon.... they saw exceptional coverage from it. they are very happy with there nascar experience all together. i havent comfirmed anything yet, but it looks like Teen burgers and root beer floats for the 21 team, as well as the races being backed again too. i cant wait. they told me i had to be the "rootbear" at the hockey game though....oh well, i always said i would do anything to race!!!! ya'll have a great weekend, we have lots to be thankful for....like racing!!!! chow #21 jw
Sorry Guys, I had to remove my replies because when I read them it sounded like I was trash talking about Nascar and that is not my intent, nor is it to argue with guys like DW, Duken or Southern Sponsor..... I just get so wrapped up in all the talks of promise that when I think about it I go off in a rampage.
There are series out there that are making seance, both Sponsor wise and money wise, and we should just keep our focus on what all makes sense.
I wonder if there is any money in Drag Racing...Top Fuel...Pro Stock ????
Again, Sorry if I sounded like I was on a mission from hell !!
BAR no one is looking to crucify you for having your opinion as this is a message board to discuss anything and everything to do with racing.
Southernsponsor, tell you Corp exec's there were a few more A & W combos consumed today. On my way to my bowling tournament we stopped there for lunch. Also plan on going again tomorrow during one of the races at the Autumn Colours to use my coupons.
