NASCAR is doomed. They can't see past the dollar sign in their eyes. They are leaving their fan base in search of new fans with more money. For example, take the moving of the Southern 500 from Darlington to California. Sure NASCAR can sell more tickets in California in the short run. But how long before the new Fontana Speedway goes the way of the Riverside and Ontario speedways? Southern California has had two world class racing facilities with Winston cup races in the past. Both of them have been closed and bulldozed. California fans are fickle. As soon as the new wears off, the fans won't be back. When the Fontana speedway is bulldozed for new housing and NA$CAR comes crawling back to it fan base, will the fans forgive and forget? As for jesse hihackson, he must have forgoten about Wendell Scott, a black man who raced in NASCAR's top series for two decades and won a cup race in 1963. NASCAR's "color barrer" was broken 50 years ago. It's not racism keeping the blacks out. It's attitudes like hijackson's, breeding hatred for whites among blacks.

When CNSNews.com asked NASCAR's Pyne about the company's involvement with Jackson, he refused to respond.

"I don't have anything to say," Pyne told CNSNews.com.

Omertà.

Maybe black guys don't race because there isn't a college handout to get them there?

How about ice hockey?

the criticism came despite NASCAR's six-figure support of Jackson's organization.

Why, oh why is Mike Helton such a pu$$y? Big Bill France is rolling in his grave.

If having a black NASCAR driver is so important to jesse why doesn't he pony up with some of that huge pile of extorted money and put together a team, for the driver of his choice.

Oh I forgot, jesse wants someone else to do that so he can concentrate on extorting more money from NASCAR.

I suppose nitwits like this aren't going to have the screws put to them to shut the hell up until white people boycot the last bastion of black supremacy and refuse to support the NBA.

Maybe THEN, such an organization as that will tell Jackson and HIS organization to keep their loony racist opinions to themselves.
