I always have felt like RJ Reynolds being replaced by Nextel as Cup sponsor after the '03 season was when things began to turn. That was when the Chase was first implemented


Agree with this. I recall Nextel and The Chase being a turning point in my mind.

I still refer to them as Winston Cup and Busch out of habit

Again, the Winston sponsorship didn’t go away because NASCAR didn’t want R.J. Reynolds’ money anymore. It’s now against federal law for tobacco companies to sponsor sports series.
