This is it going to work out well for Nascar.

Nascar goes Dicks

“We just heard from NASCAR on a number of gun-related ads and unfortunately, due to a gradual shift in NASCAR’s position on guns, these ads must be edited/changed—especially those that are depicted as assault-style rifles/sniper rifles. NASCAR is still open to some of the less controversial gun accessories, concealed carry, or classes.”


So does anyone in Nascar know what "sniper rifles" are? Should some one tell Nascar where the vast majority of guns start their existence from? NASCAR has been in a decline for years now and this latest action will not help them a single bit.

Seems reasonable actually. Watching cars drive in circles for hours is enough to drive anyone to mass murder. No further encouragement needed.

Now for NASCAR, I can totally see them taking this stance considering their viewership numbers are in the toilet.

Gotta be the "New Coke" marketing blunder of the year!

I'm still waiting on their statement for pedophile fixers being in their midst

Isn't NASCAR's entire base hardcore Republicans? Seems like a good idea

Isn't NASCAR's viewership and attendance way down anyway?

NASCAR is probably trying anything at this point. Ratings and attendance have been miserable for a while so any press is good I suppose.

The people who have run NASCAR the past 20 years have to be the dumbest group of people on earth.

I'll be completely honest

Fully semi automatic assault sniper rifles with silencers and high capacity clips sound terrifying

Well, the last thing you want is an increasing share of a shrinking market.

Might as well put this ole girl down, then. She's had her day and now it's time to go up to that big ole oval track in the sky, 4-wide, going fast, rubbin', turning left, baws.

I will never figure out why NASCAR wants to distance itself from the south. That’s been the only major cause of their slide.

Between turning their back on the core fans who supported them in the early days, stabbing us in the back over the Confederate flag and this NASCAR has done a superb job of fricking their own self. Good riddance to the idiots, their sport is gradually dying and it's self inflicted

NASCAR has best stay out of the political activism. Period. First time somebody points to all the Rebel Flags in the campground...they'll be damned if they do and twice-damned if they don't. Those seats will be empty in short order if they screw with their crowd.

Libs don't go to the races. Don't need em'. Let Trump handle that stuff.
