Running 2019 Nascar thread

Why is Cessna popping up as a regular sponsor? How many NASCAR fans to they think are buying airplanes?

 

Going back to the earliest days, the only sponsors that made sense to me were ones where the average fan had a choice to make.
Do I buy Miller Lite or Budweiser?
Do I buy Skoal or Copenhagen?
Do I buy Coke or Pepsi?
DoI buy Winstons or Marlboros?
Do I buy at Lowe's or Home Depot?

Hell, that ain’t new.

 

That has be to a Busch car Allison drove in the mid 80s. He may have had a one-off sponsorship when he was driving the 12 Miller car, and that's a mid 80s body style. I don't recall seeing that in a Cup race.

 

It was. He won the Daytona Busch race in that paint job. Piper Aircraft was a major sponsor for his personal efforts (cheaper to afford a plane if you can “pay” for some of the cost by putting the company on your hood and quarter panels).

 

Always enjoy the Budweiser Crash - I mean Clash. NASCAR should really allow teams to carry three cars to Daytona since they give them so many opportunities to wreck.

 

Kevin Harvick is right: NASCAR needs to ditch The Clash at Daytona

If they want to encourage teams to compete in the Clash, make it a "no inspection" race. Allow teams to use it to "innovate."

 

Jimmie Johnson plans to run the Boston Marathon. Finally wants to see what it's like to be a pedestrian?
