How long till we can kiss ARCA goodbye?  I don't see Nascar keeping a series in the US that basically mirrors the Xfinity

Exactly.

Exactly.

It's always been a 4th tier series (behind the trucks), so itll probably be rebranded as a step between the K&N series and XFinity. You're not wrong that it could go away entirely tho...

France family exploring sale of NASCAR

https://sports.yahoo.com/report-france-family-exploring-sale-nascar-194740381.html?src=rss

According to reports from Reuters and CNBC, NASCAR executives are "working with investment bank Goldman Sachs Group Inc to identify a potential deal for the company." Talks are in the exploratory stage and a NASCAR spokeswoman did not deny the Reuters report, saying the sport had nothing to add at this time. Why a spokesperson's non-denial is significant In many instances like this, a spokesperson will deny a report of this nature even if there is truth behind it. In this report, NASCAR spokesperson Steph Harris said, "We don't have anything to add," to an inquiry from Reuters.
When a spokesperson typically makes a statement like that it is a tacit confirmation that the reporting is correct. If that is true in this case, it's a massive, massive scoop that NASCAR's only ownership family is considering a way out — even partially — of the ownership side of the biggest auto racing series in North America.

J.J. is a "has been" now like Kasey Kahne. Plus Napscar is dying off too.

Now this is disturbing  ::)

John Andretti's colon cancer has returned, spread

https://nascar.nbcsports.com/2018/05/29/john-andrettis-colon-cancer-has-returned-spread/?src=rss

Andretti, 55, had been in remission since November when he finished 12 chemotherapy treatments. Andretti's initial surgery after his diagnosis removed 12-14 inches of his colon and scans showed the cancer had spread to his liver and possibly his spleen.

Can't they just replace the liver in a transplant to cure it?

Because the returning cancer has spread through the body, it's whack a mole.   I would presume not every type of liver cancer is suitable for transplant and that the wait time for a transplant can be a problem.

It doesn't look like any kind of Supra I have ever seen.

Here's a shocker: 

https://www.nascar.com/news-media/2018/09/04/furniture-row-racing-cease-operations-2018-season/

14 race sponsorship hole.    Gibbs raised the price of providing the cars and technical assistance.    Team owner had a heart attack.   Sounds like his family is not crazy about racing.      They have won a championship.   He has been to the top of the mountain.   What else is there to gain by spending his own money?     

Gibbs has already scooped up Truex and Cole Pearn.     Suarez will be driving something else in 2019.
