Well, it seems as though we aren't the only ones wondering about the goings on with NA__AR. I just ran across a Wikipedia site which devotes an entire article to controversy in NA__AR. In it they specify the following:

• 1 Technology far from "stock" or production
• 2 Business structure and decision-making policies
• 3 Driver competition in multiple series
• 4 Environmental effects
• 4.1 Fuel consumption
• 4.2 Emissions and pollution
• 4.3 Use of lead additives in gasoline
• 5 Participation of non-U.S. manufacturers
• 6 Changes in traditional tracks
• 7 Manipulating the outcome of races
• 8 The death of Tim Richmond
• 9 Attraction of drivers from other leagues
• 10 Jeremy Mayfield Drug Scandal

Of course it's Wikipedia and we all know how valid that source is, but it makes for some interesting reading. You can find it at: Criticism of NASCAR - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In fact, if you go to Wikipedia and type in "NASCAR and Controversy" you get a whole bunch of controversial topics about NASCAR. We aren't alone. You'd think someone at NA__AR could take the hint?

You're right.
<Sarcasm mode ON> Gee. Then we'd talk about the racing and the merits of one driver over another. What a concept!!?? Of course none of us here really likes to talk about the racing, do we? <sarcasm mode OFF>

I've never really liked Wikipedia myself. I'm a google guy. Besides... I can't spell Wikipedia unless someone has it up there for me already.

Sad, ain't it.

It't like a teacher at tech school once told me. He did'nt care if the spelling was right or not. He said that if he stepped in something; he could'nt spell it. And man... how I can relate to that.

I cringe when I see people offer Wikipedia as the sole evidence of something. If people would do their research they'd find that Wikipedia is full of mistake, inaccuracies and total misinformation.
