    What's the beef here? Sheesh, aren't the roots of NASCAR steeped in moonshine runs in the mountains?

    There's the one former RCR guy who left because the team signed a hard liquor sponsor. I'm sorry, but again, look at NASCAR's roots! This guy lasted more than 25 years with RCR and suddenly his Christian beliefs kick in? Wait, didn't Christ turn water into wine at the weddings in Cana? What about all those RCR wins that were celebrated with beer and champagne? Where were his beliefs then?

    :thinking:

    Liquor sponsors should have been in NASCAR from the beginning. How many jumped on board this year? How many cars were sponsorless last year?

    From what I understand there are 2 sponsors signed up this year. Crown and Jack. They aren't primary sponsors though.
