No more Nationwide at IRP

[DipStick]

It's going to be announced tomorrow that the Nationwide race, one that draws 30,000 people, will be moved to the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, ending a long standing tradition of the Nationwide Series racing at Lucas Oil Raceway (a tradition in effect since the formation of the Nationwide Series).

Brian France must go!

And the Truck race...

For their next feat, NASCAR will pull both Martinsville races off the schedule and move them to Chicago and Vegas.

NASCAR's going the way of the dinosaur.

The final running of the best races in NASCAR are this weekend. Tonight, the ARCA Racing Series presented by Menards races under the lights, live coverage on SPEED.

Tomorrow, the Truck Series will race at IRP for the final time on SPEED and on Saturday, the final Kroger 200 (a race that has been on the Nationwide Series schedule for 30 consecutive seasons) will be held at IRP on ESPN.

It was announced that Crown Royal will sponsor the races in 2012 at IMS with next year's "Crown Royal Presents (Your Hero Here) 400 at The Brickyard" and the NASCAR Nationwide Series at Indianapolis Motor Speedweay.

I now begin my boycott of all Crown Royal products until IRP is returned to the NASCAR Nationwide Series schedule.
