There won't be any fans left for the sponsorship to matter.

How do you get good sponsors for your Xfinity effort? Put a Cup Driver in the driver's seat. No Cup Drivers = No Xfinity Series. People are only complaining now because Kyle Busch. If it were Harvick or anyone else people would look the other way. Just a couple weeks ago in this thread a poster (I forget his user name) was complaining about Cup guys in Xfinity but somehow his favorite driver won the Xfinity race and happened to be a full time Cup guy and he didn't really care after that. There is a whole lot of that sort of thing going on. Just be honest, people hate Kyle and that's why most care so much.

Kevin Harvick is not innocent in the matter. Bad example. The only cup driver whom GTP pretty much gave any sort of a free pass to was Kyle Larson, and even then, that has pretty much worn off. Sure Kyle Busch (and Brad Keselowski to a lesser extent) started the fan backlash, but you know what they say about the genie and the bottle.
 
People have been complaining about Cup drivers in the lower levels since I started watching in 2002 and I'm guessing it was nothing new than.

My biggest problem with the way things are setup is more with how the series is marketed. If they were to switch more to a "Where upcoming stars test their talent against the vets" type thing there would probably be alot less complaining (ok, not really).
 
Anyone know if there's a stream available for the race today? My usual stream doesn't have it listed....

One thing I like about rain delays? They interview literally every driver.

That is sad. With the amount of media out there in the world and corporations have to keep it to themselves.
 
Time for a Larry MacReynolds Trend

In the past, Monday races are known to provide a sizeable crash early, almost always driver error.
