He hasn't outright banned the flag, tracks just discourage it being flown too high above RV's saying it "gets in the way" of the TV cameras views of the track.

I think it was for a metal washer/shim in the rear suspension that moved something by 1/64 of an inch out of Nascar specs. I seriously doubt it gave him much of an advantage if at all. And the "Youth Movement" I think has more to do with money than anything else, Matt Kenseth, Kasey Kahne etc... can command a big chunk of change for their contracts. Now Eric Jones & William Byron will probably take 1/2 or less of what the guys they are replacing for salary. Also Nascar tv ratings have tanked from 10 years ago. The 2006 Daytona 500 had 37 million viewers, the 2016 Daytona 500 less than a 1/3rd of the 2006 Dayona 500 viewers tuned in, just 11.4 million. The lowest rated 2016 races just had 1.5 million viewers while 2006's lowest viewed race had 5.6 million viewers. Sponsors aren't throwing the cash at teams that they used to or completely backing out of Nascar period. Look at the title sponsor, Monster only paid 20 million to be the title sponsor and they haven't renewed their contract for Nascar or SHR #41 so Kurt could be out of a ride at the end of the season as well. If Brian France and his cohorts would stop screwing around with the racing maybe the ratings would plateau or slightly increase instead of continuously dropping year to year.

Season 2 is better than 4 or 5 and has some classic episodes such as Dukes meet Cale Yarborough, Officer Daisy Duke, Return of the Ridge Raiders just to name a few.

Yeah Dukes is pretty much dead on Broadcast TV thanks to the slime ball(and every other name not fit for family websites) white supremacists who decided to steal the confederate battle flag for their sick agenda. I wouldn't be surprised if WB stops sales of the DVD's. I was going to wear one of my Dukes of Hazzard T shirts last weekend but at the last minute Saturday morning I put on one of my Homer Simpson ones. I can imagine the looks I would have received that afternoon at a local community fair if I wore the DoH one, they will be sitting in the closet for a few months till all this Confederate Battle Flag has got to go stuff dies down again.

Nice attention to detail, great idea with the grille.

You can setup your account to be really private as to who can see your posts and search for you. That's what I've done, I only friend people I know and only they can see my posts, not their friends or friends of their friends.

Only takes one person to ruin a symbol. Look what Hitler did to the Swastika. At a local Native American PowWow a few years ago someone had one sewed onto their dancing costume and it became the talk of the whole weekend, so much so that the head promoter had to repeatedly tell the audience that this version of the swastika had no Nazi or offensive meaning.

Nascar is apparently thinking about adding more gimmicks for next year http://www.mrn.com/Race-Series/NASCAR-Sprint-Cup/News/Articles/2017/05/NASCAR-Notebook-More-Stages-More-Points.aspx

I wouldn't be surprised to see her out of a cup ride after this year as well unless she puts a string of top 10's of 20's finishes.

What's everybody's thoughts on Dale Earnhardt Jr retiring at the end of the year. I'm not shocked by the news especially considering the bad concussion he got last year, but that is going to be one heck of a big void to be filled.

Rain (had 2 total inches Friday-Monday and expecting another 1-2inches Thursday-Saturday) thoughts and prayers to those who got flooded this past weekend
