NASCAR just happens to be the most venal and mercenary of the motorsport sanctioning bodies.

But they will be handing out knee pads and white flags to all going to their events.

"...the Confederacy, the group of Southern states that started the Civil War in 1861 by seceding from the United States in a doomed, bloody effort to save the institution of enslaving black people.

Idiot....

Why didn’t all demonstrators go to Minneapolis? Was the cost too steep for even soreass?

This is wrong! Liberals want to do away with history so they can manipulate people.

That definitely qualifies as an exception. However, some quality control needs to be enforced. I’ve some cases at NASCAR races where there wouldn’t be enough eye bleach if some women wore those.

Does NASCAR own the tracks?

The tracks are owned by another entity. Actually many entities depending on the location. Nascar leases the tracks.

I had previously quit NFL and NASCAR, but if I hadn’t already, I would NOW!

Who NEEDS either one?

Read a book, take a walk/hike, kiss your wife (IF she is a biological female), watch COPS on TV ...wait...

So it is up to the track to make the rules on flags, not NASCAR, they are a “customer” not an owner.

“Principle” is one thing that is in short supply in America today.
