Hmmmm ok. Moffitt in the 34 at Vegas, apparently. More seat time is good I guess, and it's a marginally better ride than he had in the 66.

Wish Vickers came back one round later. Really would have liked to see what Moffit could do at Vegas in the 55.

He did get a top 20 at Dover driving that junk #66. Don't worry this kinda news and seat time will only solidify him for a good full time ride in the future.

That's true too - although I'm sure the MWR backing for the 66 team is different when Moffitt drives it, as opposed to someone like Mike Wallace or Joe Nemechek.

It's called scrambling for $$$. This will get zero kids interested in motor racing.

You know what will get kids interested in motor racing? Actual motor racing.

I didn't need a dancing cartoon gopher on the pre-race show or have a race sponsored by a talking sponge to tell me to watch NASCAR when I was a kid.

It's like a day by day fight between IndyCar and NASCAR fans to be the worst racing fans ever.

I thought this was interesting found it on Jayski.com



Tracks report big profits, even with attendance down: Ticket sales are down but profits are up for the racetracks that have NASCAR events. The tracks cleared more than $100 million in 2014. It sounds as if, even though they are spending money tearing down seats at many places and putting up seats at a couple of others, they have money they can spend on other projects.
There are two main track operators with NASCAR national races: International Speedway Corp., which has a majority of its stock owned by the NASCAR-owning France family, has 21 Cup events (including the Sprint Unlimited and Daytona 500 qualifying races); and Speedway Motorsports Inc., which has a majority of its stock owned by Bruton Smith, has 13 Cup events (including the All-Star Race). Dover Motorsports Inc., also a publicly traded company, has two. Indianapolis Motor Speedway and Pocono Raceway are owned privately and aren't required to release their earnings.
ISC and Dover released their 2014 results in late January, and SMI released its results Wednesday. The three companies combined for $101.64 million in profits in 2014. Although the companies do have other events besides NASCAR (some NHRA races, some IndyCar races), NASCAR makes up 86% of ISC's revenues and, as of 2013, about 82% of SMI revenues.
Ever wonder why television gets to dictate so much? The tracks report that ticket sales were down 2.5% over the past year as they took in over $239 million in ticket sales. Meanwhile, they took in approximately $388 million in television revenues in 2014. That's right. They make much more money from the television contracts than they do from tickets sold. It wasn't that way 10 years ago, when the tracks took in approximately $450 million in ticket sales. Overall revenues were up 0.8% thanks to television revenue being up about 3.6-4.2% depending on the company. And the tracks reported that profits from core operations (when taking out various accounting measures) were up 2.6%

LOL good job one person doesn't act as judge jury and executinerer anymore.

Curious what this does for his reputation and how he manages to recover. Whether he's guilty or not, he's been accused (and suspended from his job). This means he'll always have the "domestic violence" stigma hanging over him.

Maybe he should start during people... start with NASCAR...

Like I mentioned elsewhere, it seems some people were more interested in a Judge Judy ruling. Some people being NASCAR.

Even my tablet doesn't want him to sue people either since it autocorrected that..... ho humm

Conspiracy everywhere, where's my hat?

This should be grounds for an immediate reinstatement.

I don't see how they can't immediately reinstate him.
