man I don't know, just downloaded some video.
it looks like there's grill cover attached the tape, which lets air to the radiator.
But on TV, it looks like it's all taped up, I don't know, I'll leave my tinfoil hat in the drawer till Loudon and just shut up :lmao:

Nationwide out as Busch Series sponsor after 2014.

Finally :roll:

Their ads sucks major rearend.
I hope this means the return of a Beer or Tobacco company as series title sponsor

That would be cool:

Budweiser onboard cam
"Smoke" onboard... :rofl:

Beer maybe, the only way Tobacco will get back involved is if the law changed, or the company concerned used their e-cig range as the title sponsor (e-cigs are not covered by the cig smoking ban in some Countries).

Some "sectors" are starting to question the advertising ban, as it's now becoming apparent it had little to no effect on peoples' original choice to start smoking (as was argued by the fag companies in the first place).

Oh yeah, ciggie sponsorship not gonna happen I know.
NASCAR would first need their balls reattached in order for that to happen.

Now NAPA Auto Parts parts way with MWR.
Man you gotta feel bad for Truex Jr.
Didn't do anything wrong, but gets screwed the most from all of this.

I wonder whether it was just the excuse NAPA were looking for, it seems a few of their franchise's have gone bust recently, so maybe things are not as rosey in the workshop as the shiny tins in the adverts make out.

If I were NAPA I'd just say we have no input into race tactics and in hindsight it is easy to find fault over one race, MWR's been busted a couple times for cheating in 400 odd races, not like they're anymore habitual offenders than anybody else.

Corporations are too scared nowdays because people are incapable of making up their own minds on subject matters and just follow knee jerk thinking without logic.

FFS, Matt Kenseth is the ultimate shit.

Not just Matt, Kyle too. They won 5 of the last 7 races, and swept the first 2 races P1-2. If anyone has still a chance against them (without anyone having problems) it's JJ.

For the JGR guys it is important to survive Talladega and have a good run at Martinsville.
From the Ford guys i don't expect much. It will be Jimmie and maybe occasionaly Harvick and Newman who can pick up a win.

Here's what Scott Henderson, the president of 5-hour Energy, said about NASCAR and Brian France adding a 13th driver to the Chase, “There's been a lot of talk about integrity. When the guy who is in charge can say, 'I can do whatever I want, I'm going to do it and I just did it,' I wonder about integrity. I've got to make sure we can win in this sport."

Just found it interesting, that finally a sponsor spoke up. Especially one who's team was involved in the "cheating"

Ian-S · **Joined:** Thu Dec 13, 2007 8:51 pm **Posts:** 10697

Yes you can see his point, i.e. what's the point of playing fair when the people in charge are not making fair decisions either.

His quote more in context:

Henderson then had one other comment — directed toward NASCAR Chairman Brian France, who added Jeff Gordon as a 13th driver in the Chase last week, declaring that he had the authority to add a driver to what was supposed to be a 12-driver field.

“I've got one thing I've got to say,” Henderson said. “There's been a lot of talk about integrity. When the guy who is in charge can say, 'I can do whatever I want, I'm going to do it and I just did it,' I wonder about integrity. I've got to make sure we can win in this sport."
