What Happened To............?

I don't watch the trucks that much and have not heard about the name change. Craftsman sounds better to me but I guess we will just have to get used to it like we had to get used to the change from Winston to Sprint.

We are BIG Nascar fans around here, My husband has it on all the time, I just watch the Sunday race. We are right down the road from Bristol Motor speedway, and Thunder Valley. We go once in a while to the track, its really loud, but it is fun.

Hi, Grandpa Bob. They probably dropped their sponsorship when National Camping World out bid them on a renewed contract. At the end of the day, it really is all about money isn't it? So..... really?? You just watch trucks practicing driving around in cirlces. Really?? Haha Not a NASCAR fan so I know I just don't get it. I can understand getting excited about a big race, and especially the excitement of actually being at the track for a race. But watching it on tv just makes me scratch my head in question. I'm a tennis fan, and I know a lot of people feel the same way about watch two people knock a ball back and forth over a net at each other.

Bob, I don't know the exact answer to your question, but it is probably like the speedway here, the owner goes with the highest bidder, and they have like a 5 or more year contract. Tight now it is Lowes, but it may be something else when that contract expires. Blessings Marilyn

I'm not a NASCAR fan but my dad is. When I saw him this past Sunday he remarked that drivers aren't flying to races in their private planes anymore but plane-pooling to save money! Maybe economics is the purpose for sponsors switching.

Toward the end of last season they announced that they were switching but I didn't hear to what until last week. I'm a little tired of them changing the names of things every other year or so. But like everything else...it's all in the money.
