Yes, because they are the OWNERS of the charter contracts and have that capability. What happens if the courts go overboard in their “jurisprudence” and award these charters to become property of the teams? How can NASCAR then govern the rules, requirements and terms of these contracts when the...

If given the charters outright, as property, three major issues. 1. NASCAR would lose any control over the quality of teams who come into their racing organization. For example, they don’t want junk owners buying charters just so they can get crappy sponsors just to run dud entries that ride...

Charlie, I get the confusion, really do. But NASCAR’s charter system was never, repeat NEVER set up to become the property of the teams. They were never the equivalent of a franchise. Both at the beginning, and ever since, they were a contract vehicle, made to do precisely as described just a...

I’m sure NASCAR will sit on those team’s “expired charters” until the cases are fully resolved. With other slots available to be offered, no need to “use” the abandoned ones until later, if ever. Pockrass earlier post indicating it would cost extra to add more charters, since they can’t further...

No, I believe there would still be 4 open slots, which would likely be taken most every race by the non-chartered teams from the plantiff’s teams. But there is no reason for NASCAR to award 4 additional charters just because they could (theoretically) due to availability. More likely this is...

They should have considered these options before choosing not to sign charters, when they KNEW their drivers had contracts with these clauses (this is the RISK factor they took but want the court to spare them from). “Having your cake and eating it too” is not considered acceptable business...

Attendance has been really strong this year!

8 - was looking like a pure tire strategy race but then the Blaney & Dillon duel flashed us back to old school short track Richmond, and set the table for a good finish.

Congrats to the Austin Dillion pickers. I was initially right there with you but talked myself into choosing Hamcrap cause he “owns” Richmond. I only halfway pull for him one race a year (when I choose him) and of course he let me down (cause he knows I hate him 🤬🤭). At least he finished 10th...

NASCAR, here is my proposal for the future of the All-Star race: Hold the race at various local short tracks, changing the venue each year. The only requirements would be they must have lighting and can hold a minimum of 8,000 fans in the stands. Make it a Saturday night event. Maybe have a...

Not exactly. The information presented to the court (THIS judge) in December 2024 was manufactured by FrontRow’s GM, was false, which helped gain the injunction against NASCAR, and led to the appeal to the higher circuit court, which destroyed THIS judge’s previous ruling. It was a LIE. Note the...

The judge did not. NASCAR’s motion presented the evidence that these actions were taken by the plantiffs. The names were redacted in the documents but by all accounts it appears to have been the GM of front row. I’m sure you read those as SOI posted them on this thread. For a judge to summarily...

Yes, this judge says please ignore the illegal manipulation and false representation of evidence manufactured by the plantiff’s general manager….that is just getting in the way of forcing NASCAR to settle this in their favor. I mean literally, the last paragraph of the statement posted by BP...

This judge’s decisions and directives have demonstrated extreme bias. His previous decision was obliterated by the higher circuit court’s 3 judge panel, then destroyed by the full panel. Once again, his commentary attempts to disparage NASCAR’s efforts to demonstrate underhanded activity while...

9 - WG is a great road course and love the challenge it gives to Cup drivers.
