I have no gay pride. I don’t have gay hatred either. I simply don’t care very much. (snip) I bet most people, like me, dislike the annual barrage of mandatory love for the LGBTQ+++ crowd and especially dislike the industry that’s sprung up around confusing kids about their biological and then giving them expensive, mutilating surgery and toxic drugs. These same people almost certainly don’t make up NASCAR’s fan base. Corporate NASCAR, however, has decided to stand with the LGBTQ++ activists. (snip) NASCAR, though, has been having a bit of a problem keeping fans.

It's a shame Big Bill isn't still around to give his offspring a swift kick in the pants. There's a reason why family owned businesses rarely survive the third generation, and the current crop of France Family members are proving why.

My DH was a fanatical NASCAR fan when I met him in the early 90s. Not anymore. There were a lot of little things, but Bubba Wallance and the "noose" controversy was the final straw.

Guess NASCAR is hard up for corporate sponsors and all the money they bring in. Don't want to alienate anyone!

College 'trained' (perverted) professional managers think they will attract THEIR like-minded friends to NASCAR? Not in a million years. Maybe 'drag' races but not NASCAR.

"Shirtsleeves to shirtsleeves in three generations," an old friend used to say about blown fortunes. The France family isn't immune.
After being a big NASCAR fan in the late '70s and early '80s who even drove down and camped out before Sunday races at Talladega and Atlanta, I transitioned to Formula 1 and IMSA (Le Mans, Sebring, Daytona, etc.), and that's where I have remained. Formula 1 represents the pinnacle of technology in racing. And F1 races at Spa Francorchamps!

NASCAR, going down hill faster than a freakin roller coaster. Sad part is most people respect the personal life of another person. Do what you want in your home or with your life. So far so good. Then when you give them a foot, they take a mile. Now is where you have to draw the line. You can do what you want but when you start going after children and start pushing your sick perverted agenda down our throats, it's push back time. Now it's overboard. Now I'm done with NASCAR for caving to the insanity of a group of people who care nothing about you or your children but all about themselves and their sick perverted lifestyle. Get it yet...

On my computer and tablet calendars they have 1June listed as beginning of Gay Pride Month. I tried to delete it, but no luck. All of the other reminders that I have, I'm able to delete. They must love shaving this down our throats.

Nascar is doing everything they can to drive away their fans. Pandering to homosexuals, insisting on homogeneity with the cars, stage racing, holding races in places where people don't care, more road courses, dumping dirt on asphalt tracks. They're grasping at every shiny object they see and it's not working.
Let car builders build their cars and drivers drive on oval tracks and get the suits out of the way.

Someone in the racing community needs to have a private meeting with the fools running NASCAR and explain that they cut out the leftist insanity, or someone WILL form a competing racing league and WILL take away all their fans.

The various teams should abandon NASCAR and set up their own racing circuit. NASCAR would die a quick death.

Check to see what kind of investments the NASCAR owners have been making, lately. It could be the left has made them offers they can't economically refuse, along with threats of various cooked up 'scandals '. That noosebusiness could have been a trial run and warning all in one bundle.

Liberals HATE everything about us. People who hate obsessively like that work hard to ruin EVERYTHING that gives the hated any joy.
Businessmen work very hard, notmally, to placate democrat politicians, because Republicans don't generally hate like that, and won't try to desyroy you if you don't kowtow.
Democrats attract and enhance the sociopathic elements in society. Which also includes pedophiles, sexually obsessed and serial killers.

Getting woke over a group of sicko, sexual deviants who don't care a wit about NASCAR. I always say if your target group are certain race of people or sexual orientation then make your profits off of that group you don't need my support. Have a nice life NASCAR.

I used to ADORE everything Nascar. The drivers, the crew chiefs, and the crews were amazing. Taking one half a pound per square inch of pressure on just one of the rear tires to adjust to changing track conditions was, yes, fascinating.
Even when they made every car look the same, with the idiotic pre-race template that each car had to comply, the drivers, crews, and chiefs still made it interesting. Strategic decisions, such as when to pit, how long to pit (2 tires vs 4 tires) gambling with NOT pitting near the end of the race, and trying to stretch out a tank of gas until the end. All these made it very interesting.
Not any more. They have taken something that filled our hearts with joy, and made it just one more thing to avoid.
