Want to move the needle, outlaw F1-like factory teams. NASCAR should come up with a long term solution to be able to field 40 teams on television money alone and not so much on sponsorship.

Folks ain't watching like they were 15 years ago. NASCARsponsorship dollars are stagnant if not dwindling. They didn't get the money from Monster which they really desired since TV ratings are down. It's hard to bring Dodge back in since FCA can't move cars as it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And it's waaaaaaayyyyy more money than the sponsorship rights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That may be true, but if ratings stay down, the next TV deal won't be worth as much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jc... Posted December 13, 2016 Share Posted December 13, 2016 Reports are saying the deal with Monster is only 2 years with a 2 year option at $20 million per year. Of course Brian France is denying it and lying about it like usual. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LAWeaver Posted December 16, 2016 Author Share Posted December 16, 2016 Matt Dibenedetto will move from BK Racing to the #32 of Go Fas Racing for 2017. Furthermore, Go Fas has leased its charter to the #21 of Ryan Blaney and the Wood Brothers. In turn, Go FAS will lease a charter from Richard Petty Motorsports, which once belonged to the #44 car of Brian Scott. With the departure of Chris Buescher, Landon Cassill moves from the 38 to the 34 while David Ragan rejoins Front Row Motorsports and will pilot the #38. This now leaves BK Racing without any drivers for next season at the moment. @loganaweaver - Twitter / @loganaweaver - Instagram / Nike Vapor Untouchable Football Template / Logan's Logos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who is leasing the 44 charter? Whoops! Guess I wasn't fully awake yet Allow me to break it down: Wood Brothers is getting a charter from FAS Lane. FAS Lane, in turn, will get their charter from Petty's 44 car. Petty now has only one charter in the 43 car.

Probably not. There's already a Monster Energy Cup for motocross.....probably done to avoid confusion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
