Hey if a sponsor wants to put their name on the event more power to them. Is that the Phoenix race? Used to be the Bashas for a long time but because the track has 2 events the Bashas Supermarkets name is on the first race.
l was playing Nascar 98 last nite and one of the fantasy tracks has the name of the race The Press Start 500 or something.

l see what you are saying.but thats how they get their product in the spotlight.by paying BIG bucks to have it on the car.
It could be worse. Think feminine products.

Some of them are not bad at all but l agree, some are questionable. Just like baseball stadiums, they have changed to corporation names. l do not like it because the bottom line is it is all about the $$$.They sure like to take things over. Even the name of the series.what was wrong with the ''Busch Series''? It worked for years. JMO

Welcome to corporate America. Sadly most races, college bowl games, and stadiums have a company name attached to it. Hell even minor league sports teams have ads sown on the jerseys just like NASCAR.

It may seem dorky, but its a sponsor for the race! Atleast they arent going unsponsored.

No doubt. One of the great things about F1 is that the races are called stuff like, The Japanese Grand Prix, The Monaco Grand Prix, etc. In Nascar, we get the Hardees 250. F1 is far more popular than Nascar and sponsorships are more expensive, yet when watch a race, you are not flooded by sponsor plugs.

l hate it as much as l do the naming of football bowl games. It is absurd. Anybody remember the ''Batman Begins Michigan 400?''
That was stupid.
