We’d rather see him sponsor an open-wheel driver, anyway. The IRL’s Sarah Fisher could certainly use a hand. She had endorsed Hillary Clinton during the primaries, so we presume that her politics lean to the left.

Do you really think that was actually produced by David Letterman?

HAH! The flip-flops just keep coming! B-HO Says No Go For NASCAR. What's next, will he switch parties, too?

Went by a pecan store here in Alabama this morning and picked up a # 3 and a # 88. If Dale were still with us I think that BAM car bracketed with an O and an A would be going boom coming out of some turn.

Great post. Loved the Top 10 list.

Ken Schrader will drive the entry, a Toyota, at Pocono for BAM, which is outside the top 35 in owner points and must qualify for the race on speed. The team has run just once since Martinsville due to sponsorship concerns, and has just six top-10 finishes in 167 career starts in the Cup series dating back to ’02.

I hope the fans all show up with signs that say “Drill Here-Drill Now,” that he gets booed loudly, and if his car even qualifies, I hope it tests out the new soft wall technology early and often.
Of course, he will probably flip-flop and skip the event, especially since his planned $300million month of June only brought in one tenth that amount.

Didn’t one of the major channels want to take a film crew into a nascar race and see if they could provoke a racial incident? They got into a bit of trouble for it, too.
