You have to help me understand how an absolute arms race won't break out if teams have to win to survive....and the spending that will come with that.....We are already a bit there with battling for sponsors as most want their names on winning cars, but you would have a mess on your hands.
It's already here. The two teams that didn't want a cap on spending are guess who, Hendrick and Gibbs. Hell, let them go, but pay enough that the other teams can survive. 12 million is a bit low, but not that far away for the majority of them. But 20 million? give me a break.
Well, they would be in pretty dire straits. Few are as willing as The Felon is to take a 20 million dollar hit while winning a couple of championships for his buddy, Jimbo France....and I will go back to the kick in the nuts to Childress for doing so, and then getting laughed at. Let's be clear, The Felon is in bed with NASCAR, and NASCAR laughs at Childress.
No sign of NASCAR's presence in the airport's main concourse. The sports gear store was strictly stick and ball.
Thanks . Any idea what is supposed to drive that increase? Sounds like a boon to the teams, again at no expense to NASCAR.
I posted it many times. I believe it was good for about 3 million for the Wood Bros. That is they way it should be. There should be blood sweat and tears involved. Big money to win a race. Not eh, we are in the playoffs from week one or two, we will act like it means something.
It isn't any boon to anybody wanting to get into the sport of Cup racing. And just like stick n ball teams can suck for years and they aren't going anywhere.
Just take it out farther. With franchises, it's possible to have many large investor groups running the sport. Why? because they will be the only ones to afford it. The haters of course will have plenty to complain about.
Can't or doesn't want to. There is a difference. Jr also says the goal in racing is to break even, racing has never been a money making proposition.
Is the charter system supposed to benefit people trying to get in? I thought it was to help those who were already competing. I don't see how it can do both - give existing teams a sellable asset AND remain affordable for those looking to get in.
Pretty sure one of the options to get rid of the charter systems is on the table.
NASCAR giveth, NASCAR taketh away. So much for not having enough control. Screw everyone who bought a charter so NASCAR can get even with 23FRM.
No good dead goes unpunished.
You need some perspective...from Bob.

Daytona pays. That is why teams show up. Doesn't take a rocket scientist to see if other tracks payed more there wouldn't be a problem and plenty would take a shot at 20th or better. Simple math.
Great Xfinity team, though. Been better than their Cup effort for years.
What is your intention? If your intention is to provide benefits to the most successful by paying the most successful the bulk of the money, the downside of that is it probably creates a feedback loop similar to F1 pre-Liberty where the same teams on top are always on top and always win all the money. By the same token, if finishing 20th isn't sustainable for a team owner to keep the lights on and doors open, then you won't have 20 cars.
Huh. Who owns half the tracks and sanctions 100% of the races?
I'll make it simple enough for you to grasp it. Nascar needs to pay more out on their purses.
Race sponsorship has a lot to do with the payout.
Why does this thread exist?
Would NW be up an operational without the Government money?
And you can be assured the TV deal is built on X amount of cars.
You don't know why? I don't care what they say they are suing for. They want a big fat guaranteed income that a lifetime franchise guarantee will bring them. I think that will happen over Jim and Lesa France's dead bodies.
