I don’t know how much the military spends on NASCAR sponsorships every year but there are Army, Air Force and Army National Guard sponsorships that I’m aware of. If advertising is meant to generate results there could be no better sport to advertise in than NASCAR. That’s a generally conservative patriotic audience and I’m sure the services benefit from the publicity.
After all, can’t you just imagine some kid who’s a motorhead looking up at those fighters flying overhead and thinking, “man I would love to have a chance to work on one of those”.
NASCAR. Thats a generally conservative patriotic audience and Im sure the services benefit from the publicity.
Had to read twelve post until I found the reason, the real reason for no sponsor for NASCAR. A majority of NASCAR viewers are conservative ! Now while we’re at it lets stop sponsoring NPR and PBS !!
I did. Wound up being a linguist, though. Not quite certain how I let myself be talked into that one, considering I loved mechanics and mechanical things, and hated sitting in class. I can't remember how long the jet engine mechanic school was, but it certainly wasn't 18 months like the linguist courses. I was already at the MEPS for in-processing and getting my ticket to Lackland.
I may have even made a career out of it had I stayed with my first choice. I would have had nearly 24 years in by now.

I agree 100%
Over the years I have noticed that there are very few avid NASCAR fans here on FR.
The average age of a NASCAR fan is much younger than those who post here on FR
