It seemed like malarky and nonsense from the start.....
When was the last time a network asked you to put their logo on your race vehicles.............??????
But....it sure got the rubes, newbies, hangers on, and chest thumpers all pumped up over nothing............
again.

Maybe the question should be asked in KW - WHEN will it be on TV - but think the hat will be passed first ! - and it wont go to the TV Sponsor either ! it will line pockets as USUAL !
CAUTION - you are in the NO SPIN ZONE - J C !

At a cost of over $200,000 per programming hour, did anyone actually think that Carbonnell would be able to come up with that kind of $$$?
This number is accurate and with 8 shows, that is $1,6000,000....There is NO WAY that they can do this...I have no clue what thee indians put in their piece pipes thinking that this was realistic, but it is, what it is....

Ahhh the great Allweiss days! When there were 80+ boat, races, TV and GMC as a sponsor. No competing associations and unity within the sport. <-----heavy sigh!! I miss those days.

I know the VP of Programming fairly well, and we have had this conversation many times (for this and other projects) and that has come down from $250,000/hr. since Nobama got his hands in messing everything up....When the economy wasn't getting murdered, that's what they were getting...so now its "only" $200,000 per hour...and the source couldn't be better IMHO...he's the only one who would be responsible for these transactions at CBS....
