NASCARDespite reports from independent blogger Mike Mulhern, NASCAR Vice President of Communications Jim Hunter says emphatically that there is no validity to a story circulating that the Camping World Truck Series will shut down. “There’s no truth to it whatsoever,” Hunter said.

“It’s total B.S. The demise of the truck series is the figment of one person’s imagination. (Mulhern) has a history of fabricating false stories and this is another example of it. We’re very aware that (the Camping World Truck Series) is affected the hardest during this economic recession. We’re currently looking at options. We’ve never given up on a series and we’re not going to start now.”

That said, NASCAR is looking at options to reduce costs such as decreasing the schedule, increasing the number of single-day dates and bringing back the half-time pit stops that could eliminate the traveling crews to five or six members. One possible solution that is off the table is the use of crate engines. NASCAR VP of Competition Robin Pemberton said they are not a viable option because “they’re not durable to last much beyond one race” which would raise costs, not lower them. Pemberton feels the sanctioning body has made “good gains with new rules and regulations” and the series “still makes sense.”

    I love how one of the top NASCAR reps pretty much just comes out and points out that Mulhern is nothing more then an idiot that isn’t to be trusted… l0l

    As far as the “We’ve never given up on a series and we’re not going to start now” thing…..
    Dash Series…?
    Grand American…?
    Convertible Division…?
    Speedway Division…? (for those that don’t know, they were Midgets/Sprints)
    Elite Division…?
    Drag Racing Division….? (very hard to find info on, but it did happen back in the 60s)

    Yet you are the one who is too cowardice to actually take 30 seconds and register.

    And no Mulhern is like you, Wrong all the time.

    Why do I need to register just to tell everyone Fisha695 don’t know his “A” from a hole in the ground?

    I know how to register too, but not to satisfy you, besides I am not out here a whole lot, and I don’t need any extra emails coming in, also I don’t come to this site a whole lot either, so no, I’ll leave it as is.

    So just go ahead and keep acting like you know all, I’ll sit back and have my own comedy show reading your comments, as I am sure others are having their comedy show as well.
