Nextel is stupid.
AT&T bought cingular. So it’s the same company, they show the AT&T logo on TV during their sponsor spot, and saw AT&T is the new cingular.

Just wait until Jeff wins a race.
Well the AT&T car was reall good, the guys work hard putting the AT&T car together so that we can get the AT&T car into victory lane here today.

We all know he would say AT&T as many times as he could during the interview.

screw nextel and screw nascar. i used to love nascar. now with all this bullshit the only reason i watch it is because im a longtime fan of jeff burton and i like to see how denny hamlin does because we used to race against him here in va. if it werent for those two i woodnt even watch it anymore. go to a saturday nite short track. the racing is better and theres no coporate bullshit goin on there. same deal with sunoco and shell. shell should sue nascar.

They are looking at chaning the name to Sprint instead of Nextel, Can they do that since they aren’t letting AT&T? Babies, NASCAR is scared and Nextel SUCKS, I have one I know! but none is better than the other. get over it! Allow them to change I agree with Cathy, if its not in their contract then NASCAR has to defend itself to Nextel on why it didnt get in their contract!

Motorola makes phones for all of the phone companies. Just differett software with the phones to be compatible with the different phone company’s networks. If NASCAR didn’t write rules for corporate buyouts and new marketing strategies for sponsors, well, then they are at fault. Just like the race car specs, if it’s not in the rules is it really cheating? Maybe Nextel needs better lawyers writing their rules!

This is interesting. Just legal wrangling and lawyers having their fun. Someone is going to get embarassed. Should be good.

The funny thing is Motorola is the brand of cell phones that Nextel uses.

Sheesh, Nextel if ya can;t stand the heat get out of the kitchen. whats the big deal, singular/at&t or whatever, sponsers need their names seen on their car, thts what keeps the cars running. Hope they rule in At&T favor

Also need to let Robby Gordon put motorola on his car.
