      This has been in the works for months. I spoke with a few of the DOD brass today after this was announced. I don’t have any concerns as of now. This should be a good thing.

        I cannot help but feel sad about the deal. Feels like a sellout. They built this thing up and have done an amazing job at DoD. I dont like someone else owning. Just feels wrong...

          It is business. It is always about business. Way of the U.S.A. Start it, build it and sell it at a good profit.

            That is true. Michael made this thing and we followed and made it huge. No way Floracing will work as hard as he did because they did not start it and build it. It was his baby. Now I dont know what his incentive is as well.

              Yeah. He cashed in. It's an American success story. I can't blame him.

                I hope it stays strictly late models.

                    Micheal took nothing and made something out of it. Flo has already has a base product that needs some work. IMO they would be stupid to not bring someone like Rigsby and his group on board to help what they already started.

                      Anyone else remember reading Rigsbys late model column he wrote while working in tv up in Wisconsin before dirt on dirt. He has become the de facto ambassador for the sport and made some coin along the way to reward for his hard work.

                        Pretty much. I also wonder what this means for the DoD employees, Suavetalk, regional coverage, etc.

                            Careful, someone might whine that you're being "negative."

                                Better question is what is it going to cost now? Besides the day after replay you can find all the content they provide on social media, it will become strictly a ppv site...for a pretty penny...
