NASCAR owners want franchise system
Many NASCAR team owners are clamoring to see the sport turn into a franchise system, similar to professional football and baseball. There would be a fixed number of teams, maybe a dozen or so, with three to four cars each. All drivers would automatically qualify to race each Sunday so that corporations would know their brand would be represented at each race. United Parcel Service was miffed in 2007 when it paid an estimated $20 million to sponsor a driver who didn’t qualify in seven out of 36 races. – Forbes
Bad idea … we need to keep the roots of Nascar
I do believe that it should become a franchise. I think maybe NASCAR should keep it simple. The sport def. makes enough money — why not race all the cars. For one, it would be more fair to the drivers, and the sponsors. Two, it seems like NASCAR is EVERYWHERE already — why not have a system in place for the next generations?
