"Qualifying in general will get a good review. It's been the same in general for many, many years," ...

NASCAR seeks to shelve rumors

CEO France says sale, management shakeup are not coming soon

HOMESTEAD, Fla. -- NASCAR chairman and CEO Brian France dispelled Internet rumors of a sale or management shakeup with an emphatic denial at a news conference before Sunday's season-ending Ford 400 at Homestead-Miami Speedway.

"We're just not for sale. I can't be any clearer than that," France said. "I'm committed to my job for the foreseeable future. That's years, not months."

France expects NASCAR to make few rules changes during the offseason, with the possible exception of the qualifying format.

"Qualifying in general will get a good review. It's been the same in general for many, many years," he said. "We're going to see if we can make it more relevant. At this point, I'm not sure what that means." The rule guaranteeing starting positions to the top 35 in the owners' standings won't change, he said.

Once, just once, I'd like to hear something passionate and/or intelligent related to the sport come out of this guy's mouth. Just once! That's all I ask!

Re: A Simple Request...
It might come as a surprise to a few but I believe in the power of prayer. I know they are answered.

I'll be honored to include one of OUR own in my prayers. Good luck to you Thunder and Happy Turkey day !!

It's either France or me she's talking about. For my sake I hope it's him.
