    Unfortunately: it’s not going to happen. Both those series you mentioned are big $$ players and need the corporate sponsors. In many cases it’s the industry itself. They really don’t care about the local racers. Late midels have gone corporate and requires huge sums of $$.

    The only thing that would possibly change this would be if tracks quit scheduling these series and they were forced to make changes in order to get track scheduling. Again- this will not happen either because many of these tracks depend on the Lucas/WOO races to keep their gates open throughout the year.
    Any type racing from slot-cars, go-carts all the way up is controlled by the $$ spent.

      Same with me. As much as I trash DoD, if it weren't for them, all I would have had was the races shown on MavTV. Despite the biased coverage, I owe Rigsby a lot.

      Everything I read was that all sponsorship was staying the same, so I assume BRS is still onboard. I haven't read the edition of any other major sponsors coming on board, so I imagine it would be pretty hard for them to keep paying the same in purses and points funding without them unless a new sponsor hasn't been announced yet.
