I don't have any idea why NASCAR confiscated MR. STEWART'S helmet but I do know that MR. STEWART calmed down after watching the replay of the accident. Evidently MR. STEWART did not believe in "do unto other's............!"
As for the Jack Roush Team.....Go Team Ford.
Remember Tim. That is where Petty gets his engines. The ones that have allowed Ambrose to have a pretty good season so far.
She should have thrown helmet and anything else that she could have gotten her hands on. He sure messed up a good night that she was having.
Someone said that she would be lapped by the 20th lap. THAT DIDN'T HAPPEN.
First time at Bristol in a Cup Car. The girl can drive a race car.
Just give her a little time folks. It just ain't as easy as it looks.
I agree PKL. But the statement was made, and I know who made it, that because of the report of Lowe's earnings last quarter being down by 20% it coud hurt the sponsorship of the 48 car. This was what I was talking about. Not a comparision of the stores.
I did make the comment that there was twice as many H D stores as there were Lowes.
What everyone else was talking about had nothing to do with this one statement.
Excuse me Dave. I should have directed this one to WHOM IT MAY CONCERN.
Whatever turns him on Johnny.
WOW!!! I got a book back on this one.
The point that I was trying to make Dave was that according to a CURRENT assistant store manager the reflected loses were actually applied to making improvements to their stores and in the operation of said stores. Note that I said Current not 2005. He did not say that this would help to boost sales. However I'm sure that this was in the minds of the directors when they decided to impliment this program of improvement.
It was implied on the radio show that loses by Lowe's could have a bearing on the sponsorship of the 48 team.
In light of the information that I received I don't think so.
You failed to mention in your book that HD has twice as many stores as Lowe's.
But anyway.......thanks for your lesson in economics.
On the radio show last night, Aug. 21, 2012, much discussion was made about Lowe's losing money in last quarter and the effect that it might have on their sponsoring of the 48 team.
I have a neighbor who is an assistant manager at a Lowe's store. He says that Lowe's profits from last quarter are being used to upgrade the interior of all stores to make it more shopper friendly. Also their complete computer, telephone, hand held scanners, etc., are being upgraded to the latest technology. They are currently using old school programs.
So to all of you Team 48, JJ, CK, etc., fans (of which I am not one of) you probably have nothing to worry about. I am sure that the aforementioned team and Mr. H. and Lowe's will be around for several more seasons.
I raced against Buck back in the day. Great driver and a great guy. RIP Buck.
No comment. I messed up my entry. Trying to multi task. ha.
It was a snide remark about 2 or 3 posts anyway. Not yours though. lol
That's what I'm talking about.
Altogether a powerful force.
