You conveniently ignored the fact that RPM2night only existed because of it's NASCAR coverage. Shortly after NASCAR no longer allowed them to cover their races, RPM2night ceased to exist.

Sorry if that was too much for you to comprehend.

No, awor did not use the funds. King George used the funds to bankroll his asinine "vision". There was much more to aowr than that vision at the time.

About as much as you can support your assertions. Although, (I don't have a link), but on another forum the former host, John Kernan, stated as much.

Plus, funny how the show ended after NASCAR no longer allowed RPM2night into the track at NASCAR races. I'm sure there are those who think it is mere coincidence.

i didnt think so

Any link to a definition of the "NASCAR community", other than what you've made up?

And speaking of Europe, I'm leaving in a couple of weeks for my second trip this year.

Good bye.

Don't let the door hit you on the way out. Never seen a guy so miserable about Indycar racing post so much about it, while pretending to say he doesn't care.

Putting you on ignore would work, but then I would have to see what everyone else was writing about you, and rather than speculate, I might actually find you right once in a while.

Quoted just so Lee Roy has a chance to see it.

You "ain't" wrong.

Gary

Well you know how it goes...when the facts don't match the argument presented, just ignore them right Sarahfan? ...

To say Bruton Smith isn't part of the greater NASCAR family is like saying Richard Petty is no longer part of the NASCAR family...

I can tell you this much, Bruton has more skin in the game of NASCAR's success than any of the team owners or drivers....so how that isn't relevent is a mystery to me.

Oh come on guys, keep it up! Im enjoying watching this soap opera!!! :bounce:

Go Sarah and Mark! :ninja:

I am sure he saw it the other 3 times. Lee Roy hasn't put me on ignore I suspect. If he does, oh well. I am not losing sleep over it. I have tried to get along with the guy in the past, but when he comes to the Indy Car board to dump cold water over everyone, he deserves a kick. Haters just serve no real purpose. The guy HATES the IRL but he insists on commenting on it. Just go away is my thought to him on this....
