NASCAR license plate plan crashes, burns
Quote selected text Published March 10th, 2007 in NASCAR News
A plan to offer Illinois motorists the chance to buy NASCAR license plates is stuck on pit row with a flat tire.
Legislation sponsored by state Rep. Bob Flider, D-Mount Zion, failed to receive enough votes in the House Thursday and was sent back for a tune-up.
“I’m going to try and resolve the concerns I heard today,” Flider said.
Flider had sought to bring NASCAR plates to Illinois as a way to celebrate the popular stock car racing series. The plates, already available in several other states, would cost $35 more than standard plates and would allow motorists to pick plates featuring their favorite drivers.
But, state Rep. John Fritchey, D-Chicago, questioned whether the state should be paying NASCAR for the right to use their logo.
“I think people should think twice about this,” said Fritchey.
The legislation is House Bill 946.

I say if the fans want to pay for them then they should have every right to have the license plates,just because this guy has his own issue with it maybe he should meet the fans of nascar and then think twice about it.
