Umm, Camping World isn’t NASCAR. And don’t forget, the NRA sponsors NASCAR races. NASCAR is one of the FEW corporate entities outside of the firearm/hunting/camping sphere that will even associate itself with the NRA.

Many local race tracks run with sanctions other than NASCAR, BTW. Support them, and tell them that you won’t be attending visiting NASCAR events.

Marcus Anthony Lemonis (born November 16, 1973) is a Lebanese-born American businessman, investor, television personality, philanthropist and politician. He is currently the chairman and CEO of Camping World, Good Sam Enterprises and Gander Mountain and the star of The Profit, a CNBC reality show about saving small businesses.

Lemonis earned a bachelor’s degree in political science and a minor in criminology from Marquette University in Milwaukee in 1995, and unsuccessfully ran as a Democrat for a seat in the Florida House of Representatives shortly after his graduation,[2] whereupon he refocused his career on the automotive industry....

Lemonis’ philanthropic efforts have included support for the Joffrey Ballet,[15][16] St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital,[17] Ravinia Festival,[18] Lincoln Park Zoo,[19] RV/MH Hall of Fame,[20] Zacharias Sexual Abuse Center....

I’m one of them. I used to spend some big bucks on NASCAR every year until about three years ago. Now, I don’t even watch it on TV anymore. It has gone totally to crap.

Unlike at least some Freepers I’ve never been a big NASCAR fan.However,it’s my understanding that NASCAR is particularly popular in the South,a section of the country that went strongly for DJT.If I’m correct in this assumption this “distancing” just might pi$$ off a good number of NASCAR’s fans.

Not surprised. They have distanced themselves from their fans too.

I love dirt track racing. Those guys aren’t in it for the money as you can tell. They do it for the love of the sport. I grew up in southern California in the seventies and eighties, and remember a beautiful dirt track in the city of Gardena called Ascot Park. It’s gone now, but I spent so many weekends watching everything from midget and sprint car racing to Figure 8 and dirt track motorcycle races. I loved it and miss those days. I’m glad that dirt track racing is still pretty popular throughout the country. That’s the real racing in my mind.

“I’ve been trying to find one those 2 door V-8 toyotas but haven’t had much luck.”

You’re looking in the wrong place. They have a separate “dealership” that sells only Chevotas. They come with a 350 Chevrolet engine that has been fitted with aftermarket “Toyota” valve covers, and a Holley carburetor, and unlike EVERY Toyota automobile made, it’s got a 9 inch Ford rear end and is rear wheel drive! NASCAR needs to set up another series called “Rice Burners,” that is populated with Japo Shit box front wheel drive cars. Banked track racing will be “interesting.” They will have to bring in aging Kamakazi pilots to drive them. Maybe there’s a slot or two for Blacks as well, since they have a penchant for killing themselves.

I have a question.

If I drive over to a Camping World location in my Car which has TRUMP 45 Vanity License Plates, will they refuse to sell me anything due to the Policy set up by their CEO?

I use to run pure stock. Cost 100 bucks a race in fuel to get there and race. If you won you would get 150 bucks. It was for the fun and friends.
