they dont need nascar, but nascar needs them.

After Crandon this weekend, its very easy to see why Monster has no desire to be involved in nascar. They get far more exposure at dirt events than they ever would at nascar races. 70% of the 'crowd' was decked out in Monster gear.--> Over-saturated <-- to the point that wearing it isn't 'original' anymore,but Monster is getting crazy bang for their buck.

I don't know. To be honest, Red Bull and Toyota are what got me interested again in NASCAR. I think they haven't done bad, considering it took 3 years to go from nothing to winning a race and making the Chase. Of course this year has been a drop off, but next year with Vickers (assuming he can come back) and Kahne I see them becoming even more competitive.

I've heard talk of moving to 3 teams but I think that would be a mistake. I'd rather see them start 1 or 2 Nationwide teams to develop talent. Send Speed back to the minors while Kahne is there for a year. Or bring over Mattias to develop there for a year. Then, they will have a place to bring up their prospect Cole Whitt in a couple of years.

Mattias will replace Kahne in the #82 in 2012.

Some NASCAR writer dude said he was just testing and it will be changed in the next day or so. So I don't know.
