It was for that elusive French driver, Jacques DeBris. He has a penchant for appearing just when NASCAR wants a caution to get things more exciting. (Cautions breed cautions).

You still want to sell some Bristol tickets to a poor college kid?

Any Sprint Cup or Nationwide series race there.

Do they still race sprint cars there?

Have 8 for the Spring Nationwide, sell in pairs, or...
May still can get Cup, but they don't come cheap, had 4 two weeks ago...gone.

No, they were making too big a mess and not drawing the crowd they needed. Frankly, it wasn't that good of a race here. Nothing like Eldora or Knoxville, IA. Strangely enough, I think they were going too fast to race close.

How much for the Nationwide? I'd be interested in 4. PM with a price.
