Alot of the crapcar lovers r dragging napa through the mud over this calling for a boycott.... all mwr did was call a driver into the pits, right wink wink...
Not to mention Nationwide pulling out their series sponsorship as well as Army and Office Depot pulling out from Stewart-Haas. You have to wonder how much of this is "business as usual" and how much of it is related to the recent controversy. Will be interesting to see what Sprint does in 2014 at this point.

Hate to say it but its true.
More like it went to crap when Obama took the helm. In today's economy, how can any of these companies justify spending multi-millions to put their name on a hood. Plus, these companies are looking to the uncertain future ..... Obamacare is right around the corner.
The grandstands are half full, not because of the chase, but who can afford to pay for a weekend at a NASCAR race these days.
I think it pretty obvious, the current economy is hurting every level of racing.

Nationwide isn't leaving the sport, at all. In fact, they're expanding sponsorship. They plan to be the official insurance of NASCAR and sponsor a Sprint Cup team.
