The track ownership model and the fact that NASCAR restricts what owners can do with the car (can’t test, race elsewhere…etc) are the weakest points for NASCAR. I think NASCAR is 100% an illegal monopoly that exercises undue influence in the field. The problem for Denny and MJ however is that...

They kind of had to say something, they have sponsor commitments that have to be honored.

You can try to deny him but even year Joey Logano will always find a way to get ahead.

If Kyle Larson had raced in the Coca Cola 600, Joey Logano would be in the Round of 8.

Gotta feel for Gragson. His first ride was Legacy then he goes to SHR and they go out of business then he goes to Front Row and they sue NASCAR. Crazy as **** employment history

You expected Dennis to not comment in an anti-NASCAR article?

If Dale Earnhardt owned an NBA team, how many other owners do you think he could get to take action against the league?

NASCAR has a vocal portion of its fan base that is convinced that NASCAR’s leadership is the devil reincarnated. Dennis has figured out how to play that to his advantage (and got a podcast out of it). Mayfield is also using that to his advantage.

And the high speeds created a lot of separation between cars and the aero push created by the high speed made it difficult to pass. We should probably not to look to Fontana for ways to improve the racing.

You seem to be confusing individuals working together vs. businesses. If you and I own construction firms and we partner together on a project, we’re sharing resources but neither of us can dictate to the other how to run their businesses.

It’s just a small family owned business

“Essentially operate” It’s a comparison that WaPo is using to make the concept understandable to their readers.

What about situations where fans wildly speculate about what rules could have been broken?

He also cheated on his wife and had a gambling problem. He’s not a choir boy.

The team owners are not independent contractors by any definition.

I am sympathetic towards the owners but I also worry about what a lawsuit could mean for stock car racing. What if NASCAR has to divest certain parts of this portfolio? What if the tracks are bought by a venture capital firm who puts in the bare minimum? Who even knows what a remedy to NASCAR’s...

Michael Jordan transcended basketball. The guy is one of the most recognizable people on Earth.

You can clear up misinterpretations by providing the actual text.

What does size have to do with transparency? It takes the same amount of time to upload a large pdf as it does a small one. The leagues themselves don’t use public bond money, the teams do. Do we want to talk about the NC state government funding renovations to tracks that are used by NASCAR...
