I don't think this can be assumed to be a direct reflection on Junior or his
popularity. Alabama Motorsports Park had been sponsoring/advertising on
several NASCAR related sites for a couple of years, but pulled out of all
that last year.
I thought having Jr's name on it was an 'interesting' choice from the first
time I saw it, considering NASCAR style racing sounded like such a small
part of the overall plans from day one.
I'd say the investors just could no longer see the point in paying for any
NASCAR name for the complex, Earnhardt or not. |
I agree, and imposing a 5 cent sales tax on the good people of that
county means they no longer have to pay a big name to drum up public
interest. They can just jam it down their throats.
