I'm probably going to piss off half of the people who has posted to this post. But i liked the old days, 25 or so yrs. ago. I can remember when Kenny was towing his funny car with a box truck and an inclosed trailer. Sherl and her girl friend was selling t-shirts out of the back of it, i have pics. some where with me and Sherl and her girl friend at Phx. Race way park. We took pics. one day and she brought them over to my pit the next day and collected the $25.00, that keep them going. I can remember bringing over to Jim Head a Tig welder so he/we could weld up his headers so he could keep running. That was racing, today i agree that the cars are running outstanding #'s and all have big sponsers. They change a $50,000.00 moter between rounds and break another, no problems. I would love to see it go back to those days but then i guess the teams with the most money would win like Shaumaker, Force, etc.
Sorry if i pissed anyone off, but i'm old and remember when money was not the major factor, but intellengence was a contributing factor.
About Nascar, i donot watch it unless there's nothing else on TV. Nascar has over shadowed Drag racing for many yrs. and since i don't care for Nascar, it doesn't bother me if thay lose their sponsers. Maybe all racing will divert back to the best tuners, racers i would love to see that.
Sorry if i pissed off a lot of people, this is just my opinion.
