    I wouldn't worry about it too much Stan, I'm sure that the teams are happy with all the money that NEXTEL brings in.

    Well that's the problem with naming after sponsors? Sponsors aren't forever and it loses continuity. The trucks don't/won't have that problem because they are "the trucks" Most of us have taking to calling the top division "the Cup cars" and it works with either Winston or Nextel or whatever they'll call them in the future. (Isn't the Nextel Name supposed to go away soon?) But What are the Busch cars? They were once part of the old sportsman division, Are they Sportsman cars? DO we go back to Grand National? (which of course were the original Cup cars, but that's a whole another discussion) What do we call NASCAR's second division to ensure a continuous history?

    A continuous history is a continuous history. Names don't mean anything when it comes to that.

    I check out TrackForum too and I see you there. They're kindof Anti-Nascar there but you more than hold your own. (especially since facts are on your side )
