NASCAR's Rule Changed?

General

NASCAR RULE BOOK, 2011, Page 18, Section 18.18.18, reads: Any rule or condition contained in this book is subject to strict interpretation by the ranking member of NASCAR on the scene at the time of any infraction. Should any infraction occur away from the racing facility, no matter the location, local law shall prevail. However, any infraction which will adversely impact the number 18 Cup entry is immediately rendered moot and invalid. There is to be NO enforcement of penalties, suspensions, point deductions or any other adverse impact upon the number 18 entry. However, this rule is subject to immediate revision upon arrival of a certain leather wearing female driver from the INDY series as the publicity impact of her arrival is certain to take precedence over the number 18 entry.

So, there you have it. You should see the rule on Page 106.

NASCAR's Rule Changed?

When I got my NASCAR license in 1969, I had to present my SC drivers license. Each year I renewed, through, 1973, it was the same. But that was a long, long time ago. We all know NASCAR has the most flexible rules in sports.

Harvey, I'm not a star but I will be there and I even have some 'hero cards" this year so I'll be happy to sign autogrpahs if you'll allow me to.

I appreciate all the responses to this thread. It was my intention to see the varying opinions of the true fans here at Racers Reunion and I certainly got those. As always, each and every opinion is respected and accepted, whether or not I agree. There are always issues and differences of opinions when folks get together and it seems the passion of race fans bring those issues and differences to red line limits. Passion is a good thing! Without it, there would be no reason to sing The National Anthem because it was the passion for freedom that birthed this U.S.A. It should be the passion for racing, and for your respective drivers and teams, that keep this site, and NASCAR going. Thank you all for your responses and have a great Labor Day Weekend.

Ladies and Gentlemen! I would request, most respectfully, than any discussions back and forth remain as between friends as we are all here for the same reason. As any who knows me will attest, I am extremely opinionated and although I strive hard to be objective, there are certain issues upon which that objectiveity is subject to my personal interpretation. Such is the case with my issues with Kyle Busch. I did, last night and this morning, watch numerous You Tube clips of race incidents and interviews with Kyle Busch since his entrance into NASCAR racing. I have not expressed my opinion in this forum due to the rules of engagement as posted by Jeff. IF Jeff allows me to expound on Tuesday night's show, I will do so. If Jeff says that the rules of engagement apply to Legendtorials then you will have to use my personal e-mail to get my opinion. Each of you who have stated you "have the right to your opinion" and to express that opinion are fully correct. Having said that, we each have the obligation to respect our fellow members here at Racers Reunion and THEIR opinions whether or not it agrees with yours. I have, since posting this Forum,, received three personal e-mails. If any of you wish to hit me personally, my e-mail is: legendtim83@yahoo.com. I will, however, probably not come back to the computer until sometime Sunday. I seriously considered removing this Forum Post after one specific e-mail I received, but I have decided to leave that determination to Jeff.

Believe me, folks, I respect each and every one of you and your opinions, whether or not you agree with me. I am NOT Rush Limbaugh.

Thanks Dave. I hope I have your support!!!

Dave, your dog may listen, but Jeff has to clear it first. I assure you, without Rules of Engagement in effect for the Legendtorial, no one may want to listen.

My Chime in time. My Facebook page, with a couple hundred race fan members from all over the country and Canada, has been filled, and I mean FILLED with comments about the Busch-Sadler incident. Last night on FB chat, I chatted with about a dozen of said fans. Most all of these guys and ladies are in their teens to mid-thirties, the demograhics in which NASCAR expresses such great interest. To a person, 100%, they all express total disgust toward Kyle Busch. Two of said parties were Busch fans before the incident but one young lady called him names the "Rules of Engagement" will not allow me to put in this post. One young man from New York used a sailor's vocabularly to express his opinion of Busch.

One discussion led to the point that a few years ago, Kevin Harvick had an incident in the truck race on Martinsville weekend of the Cup race and was parked for the Cup race. The young man asked if I thought that would happen with Busch. My answer was that NASCAR is not likely to park the child with the Billion Dollar candy sponsorship who currently happens to be leading the points and whose car brand has been chosen to pace the 2012 Daytona 500.

Under the "Rules of Engagement" I cannot present my opinion here. I will, however, point out that my Facebook page contains no less than 9 You Tube clips of Busch over the past three years that should tell anyone with a reasonable mind, that there are issues inside that young man. I intend to check with Jeff before Tuesday to see if the "Terms of Engagement" apply to Legendtorials. If not, you may want to keep the children away from the radio Tuesday.
