Thanks RacersReunion Memory Lane Hall Of Fame Sponsors.


Stock Car Racing History

For the second year in a row Greg Biffle and David Ragan have stepped forward from the ranks of Sprint Cup to support our efforts at the RacersReunion Memory Lane Hall Of Fame. Coca-Cola has joined them as a major sponsor of this event. We have not secured the primary sponsorship spot yet, but are very pleased to be supported by the following:
David Ragan Ford
Greg Biffle Foundation
Coca-Cola
Hilton Garden Inn Mooresville
The Wingate Hotel Moorevelle
Sunoco Racing Fuels
"Tiger" Tom Pistone Race Cars and Parts
Hagerty Collector Car Insurance
Geoff Bodine's Waxing Frenzy
Red Dirt Rising
International Collectible Antiques
Memory Lane Museum
Beam Trailer Sales
Rockingham Speedway
Fast Track Driving Schools

Please remember these folks for your business or support. Without their help we would not be able to carry out our efforts.
If you know of anyone else who would like to buy an ad in our calendar or purchase a block of tickets to give to their customers, please let me know as soon as possible.

There's only a few more days to purchase your advance (discounted) tickets. See events calendar for details.

Thank you!
Jeff Gilder

THE KANGAROO COURT DID ITS DUTY TODAY


Current NASCAR

All this would be fine and dandy Richard if they called everything....but if the right name is on the top...some things get over looked. Most of them are "wrong" in one way or another. The suspicion comes from the choices of who gets caught penalized. This sort of thing has been going on for a looooong time.

Richard Guido said:
I do not like Nacszar's brand or product but they did say there would be no slack when the COT was fully implemented. Whether Nacszar is wrong or right there are specs for a reason. At what point do you make the call of an infraction. There is a window in place and of you go out of that window it is a done deal.

Before the cars even see the track the teams sign off on Naszar's rules and regs. If you aknowledge and agree to the sanctioning bodies policies then it is also a done deal.

I do not think that Naszar is spotlighting Boyers team but they told the 33 bunch to watch it. If Childress could have proved that physical damage caused the problem the his appeal would have been granted.

Is Naszar's box too tight ? Sure it is but what if it was not ? Did Boyers team intentionaly break the rules ? Probably not but a rule is a rule and as history shows his team is not the first to be penalised for failing inspection.

No to defend Friyn Brian and the Boys but maybe some one here remembers what happened to the 48 team at Dover a year or two ago. I heard that they told the 48 crew that their car was slightly out of spec concerning the pitch of the car but they did nothing about it concerning a penalty ? If asked about that situation how would the Boys in Daytona answer.

Your Honor The plaintiff is out of order on this


Current NASCAR

My first response to this was a little different than I feel now. At first I though...how can you let this happen when you've been warned...? But after hearing how small the variance was...hmmmm. Could it have been caused on the track? I dunno....but dang sure is a shame it happened to Clint. Good guy!

RacersReunionmania and RacersReunion Nation


General

It is most certainly our pleasure! We're coming up on our 3 year anniversary (Jan 25) and it is amazing how many folks have found us through referrals and searches. With the exception of a couple of months during the first year we have not advertised the site at all. Advertising brought the wrong crowd so we stopped doing it. I didn't want this site to turn into one of those...like so many that exist ...where folks seem to always be arguing and fighting. Our crowd really seems to appreciate and enjoy racing history and have made this a premier living, growing, historical document.

RacersReunionmania and RacersReunion Nation


General

The phenomenon rages on! Old school race fans are coming out in droves to experience this amazing occurrence. Unlike other "manias" and "nations" this one seems to be a clear winner! The mainstream press seems to be asleep at the wheel on this one, though. While fans of yesteryear tire of the endless barrage of senseless media hype and commercialization of a once iconic sport, they are embracing RacersReunion Nation.

Why....you may ask? Heck, I dunno! But here is a list of possibilities"
Legendmania, Raymania, Boppermania,Biscoemania, Rexmania, JohnnyMalloneemania, Codymania, Bumpertagmania, Andymania, Guidomania, Dr.JaniceWoodberrymania, Devinmania, RJmania, Rondamania, Nedmania, Leonmania,Tommiemania, Freemania, CoastalJackmania, BigDmania, MotorweekLIVE!mania, STARSmania, UncleWallymania, Bobbymania, Ernestmania, SlimShadymania, Andrewsfamilymania, RoniManemania, Kimberlymania, Tigermania, Wmania, Frankmania, Edmania, maybe Geraldmania...nah maybe not, Kylemania, Leonmania, Freemania, Goobermania, Brandonmania
